Hi jbalgrim, welcome to the forum

To schedule a boot time scan in avast! 5, follow these instructions:

Open avast! GUI --> Click 'Scan Computer' --> Click 'Boot time scan' just underneath that when it appears.

From there you can schedule it and adjust the settings etc.

If you need more details, you can see here: http://sites.google.com/site/spg20scottsweb/home/avast-5-boot-time-scan

You can set avast to do a boot time scan from the GUI.
But only if you're running a 32bit system, on 64bit it will be available in v5.1

What is your OS ?

If a 64bit version of windows it isn't available, otherwise, see this image.
