I used kellys regkey to enable autoplay which didn't fix the problem.

However going to the microsoft article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315350/en-us and from there the roxio
site discussion forum there was a link to a dell patch for my machine
upgrading roxio software.

Roxio came preinstalled on my machine and it has never been used it is
not even available from start all programs.

What the hell it fixed my problem.

Thank you for your input
