Here's what I'm trying to accomplish:

I have an IP camera
I have a VGA monitor for public viewing of the IP camera.
I need a device that will display the IP camera on the monitor with NO user interaction, NO keyboard, NO mouse, and will Autoload the IP camera on a powerfail/restart.

Here's what I'm thinking:

Something along the lines of a HP Thin Client t5740 or the like. Something I can strap to the back of a monitor hanging from the ceiling.
This thing runs Windows Embedded OS.

Heres my question:

How hard is it to make windows embedded autoload a website and stay on it with NO user interaction. This thing needs to be stupid simple.

Thanks!
 
mmm... kiosk is the term that was escaping me.

so this is something i can just set up without anything extra in windows embedded?

Last time I used Windows Embedded, yes. It was simply (HA!) a matter of making IE the shell, setting an appropriate homepage, and building the image.
