Ramesh,
I did download and run Autofix.exe for repairing problems with autoplay from
the Microsoft site, and it didn't fix anything either. Here is the log from
one of my attempts. I tried 2 different drives, one was a removeable compact
Flash and the other was my CDR drive. Interestingly enough, when I put a
music CD in the CDR drive, a window opens up showing the files on the CD- but
I can't get that to happen on the other drives at all, and it used to go
directly to Media Player.
Heres the text from the test:
utoFix [V5.2.3790.67]

Microsoft Windows Version [5.1 (Service Pack 2) <2600>]

Step: No steps to take.
Result: This AutoPlay setting cannot be fixed. Either the device is
malfunctioning, or the wizard cannot determine the problem.
>> Required action: The wizard found problems but cannot fix them -> None
Don't know if this pinpoints anything or not. Thanks.
