AutoRun
Hi,
I have a problem with Windows 98 and Windows ME in terms of autorun. In both cases it recognizes the CD rom drive and the files on the CD rom. But it won't execute the executable automatically. I have no problem with Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Please help. Best regards, George |

Right-click on the My Computer icon and select Properties.
Choose the Device Manager tab. Open the CD-ROM branch, and select the entry for your CD-ROM drive. Click Properties, and then choose the Settings tab. Turn on the Auto insert notification option. Click OK, and then OK again. You'll have to restart Windows for this change to take effect. It is possible you have Autoinsert on but AutoRun off for both data and audio. Use TweakUI and you can alter these individually. Tweak UI 1.33 for Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows 98 or Windows 95.

Look here..I use to have the same problem with my Windows98SE PC.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;177880 ============================================== SYMPTOMS When you insert a CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, it may not be run automatically. CAUSE This issue can occur if there is an incorrect value in the registry. RESOLUTION WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. To resolve this issue, use Registry Editor to locate the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explore r Modify the value for the NoDriveTypeAutoRun key to 0000 95 00 00 00 (or 0x95 in Regedt32.exe). After you make this change, quit Registry Editor and restart your computer. ================================================== == Good luck BL "Alan Edwards" wrote in message ...
