+**Option 1: PowerShell script with Task Scheduler**
+
+1. Create a startup script `C:\llama-server\start-llama.ps1`:
+```powershell
+# start-llama.ps1
+Start-Process -FilePath "C:\llama-server\llama-server.exe" `
+    -ArgumentList "-hf", "Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-1.5B-Instruct-GGUF", "-ngl", "99", "--port", "8080" `
+    -WindowStyle Hidden `
+    -RedirectStandardOutput "C:\llama-server\llama-server.log" `
+    -RedirectStandardError "C:\llama-server\llama-server.err"
+```
+
+2. Create a scheduled task (run in PowerShell as Administrator):
+```powershell
+$action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "powershell.exe" `
+    -Argument "-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File C:\llama-server\start-llama.ps1"
+$trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -AtStartup
+$principal = New-ScheduledTaskPrincipal -UserId "$env:USERNAME" -LogonType S4U
+Register-ScheduledTask -TaskName "LlamaServer" -Action $action -Trigger $trigger -Principal $principal
+
+# Start immediately
+Start-ScheduledTask -TaskName "LlamaServer"
+
+# Stop the service
+Stop-ScheduledTask -TaskName "LlamaServer"
+
+# Remove the service
+Unregister-ScheduledTask -TaskName "LlamaServer" -Confirm:$false
+```
+
+**Option 2: Using NSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager)**
+
+```powershell
+# Install NSSM (using chocolatey)
+choco install nssm
+
+# Install llama-server as a Windows service
+nssm install LlamaServer "C:\llama-server\llama-server.exe" "-hf Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-1.5B-Instruct-GGUF -ngl 99 --port 8080"

+# Stop the service
+nssm stop LlamaServer
