can you just go to windows explorer and right click on your cdrom drive then
select properties. then just click the autoplay tab and go from there.

Hi Douglas,

Check your settings here:

Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services/Shell Hardware Detection/Return
this service to Automatic.

Enable CD AutoPlay for Pro or Home (Line 10)

If you are using TweakUI/My Computer/AutoPlay
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp

Many users have solved this issue by removing the AutoPlay Handlers.

More information here under AutoPlay Enable

Note: If you are using RealOne Player, there is a patch that corrects this
issue after installing and XP SP1.
