Disc Drives won't autoplay

[Elisabeth]

Help! None of my drives will autoplay and prompt me with
options. This is a major problem for me because I need
to get to Microsoft Scanner and Camera Wizard and the
only way I know how to do this is from the Autoplay when
I connect my digital... can anyone help me?

Open Windows Explorer, right click the appropriate drive and select
properties, go to the AutoPlay tab, from the drop down list select the file
type, select "Prompt me each time to choose an action" and click apply and
ok. You will need to do this for each file type in the list which doesn't
activate autoplay.

As to the Scanners and Camera wizard, you can access it without the use of
autoplay as follows:
Go to Start, select All Programs, select Accessories and you should see
Scanner and Camera Wizard in the list.
