questions about Autoplay
Last year I installed KB971029 Update Autoplay functionality in XP. I
now want to restore Autoplay to original settings. Forgetting this I first ran Autofix.exe. It did some corrections. Original functionality still doesn't work. I navigate to the KB971029 folder in Windows. When I use spuninst it say's a whole host of programs may not work. I'm nervous. This does just affect autoplay on drives doesn't it? Is this just a Generic warning? I have autoplay set to "Prompt me each time" for action (on the CD-ROM drive). Nothing. How can I get the original functionality of Autoplay back? Thanks.

Methinks you may be confusing Autorun with Autoplay here.

questions about Autoplay
Even MS confuses Autorun & autoplay in
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971029. That being said, installing KB971029 will only effect USB flash drives.
