Re: Autoplay does not work



Ed take a look at this link from my website: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/autorun_autoplay_don't_work_when_cddvd_is_inserted.htm

Yes this does refer to Windows Vista, but the same procedure should work or XP too.

I am running Windows XP Pro SP3 on a Desktop with a 2.1gb dual core
processor. I have two DVD burner drives. a Plextor PX712UP and a HP DVD Dual
Layer Writer DVD 840d. I am also have installed Powertoy's Tweak UI. Both
drives are set to Autoplay in XP's My Computer under the selected drive, and
in Tweak UI.

However, neither drive will auto start any disk placed in the drive(s). Not
Audio Cd, DVD, or Program disk for installation of product.

Does anyone have any suggestion what could be blocking the Autoplay feature?

Thanks,


.
