Disabling XP autostart for CDs

[Jules]

Hi,

Anybody know how to disable the dratted XP autostart when
I insert a CD? I want it just the same way Win2000 does
it, without the timewasting options.

Open My Computer, right click on the CD drive, go to Properties, then the
Autoplay tab. Choose what you want to do for the various types of cd's.

Hi Jules,

You can permanently disable Autorun on a specific drive through TweakUI. Under TweakUI, navigate to
My Computer>>Drives and uncheck the drive letter for your CD drive.

Download TweakUI from:
