Problem with CDs
-
Windows XP no longer auto runs any CDs, regardless the drive I place them in (the CD-RW or the DVD-ROM). The autoplay is not turned off for either. Another thing is that CD volume names are ignored, instead the DVD is always "Audio CD" and ther CD-RW is always "YR1" (Yuri's Revenge, a game), which ahsn't been in the drive for weeks. There is no problem reading from CDs once you use explorer to get to their root. What on earth is going on? :confused:

Sounds like auto-insert notification is off. I've seen (badly-written) games disable this at install time, without warning, to avoid problems when swapping the game's CDs. --Mike-- Ericahist | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber CP SearchBar v2.0.2 released

Any idea how to check if that's it, and if so turn it back on? It did start happening just after I installed Red Alert II (from memory anyway).

It's just a registry entry, but I use Tweak UI, the option is called "play data CDs automatically" or something like that. --Mike-- Ericahist | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber CP SearchBar v2.0.2 released
