Default Awhile back - CD startup problems

I posted a problem I had here that when I started up my comp; the game's CD
would start it's setup prog everytime. Very annoying, someone suggested
tweakUI and that worked for awhile but I finally fixed it by ripping it out
of control panel and have ME find it again on the next start up.

Didn't see your original post, but if your Setup Menu (F2 on booting) is set
to it's defaults, then your ATAPI CDROM is where it "looks" first. You could
change the setting or merely insert your game CD after Windows is loaded.
Unless it's faulty you should be able to play without going through its setup
again.

The guy who wrote CP/M got a ton of money on a buyout. He got into
motorcycles and started wearing "colors". Was in a bar with real Hells
Angels, got into a fight and was killed. Geeks should't act like badasses.

Yes, you need to be a psychopath.
