Load your application after those threads are joined e.g:

Thread1.join();
Thread2.join();
Thread3.join();
Thread4.join();


startApplication();

If you could provide me in more detail i can help you better.

Depending upon how you're starting the 4 threads then WaitHandle.WaitAll might be a good place to start...
