Autorun Command

[Ronniebootwest]

I want to put five of my shows onto a CD with an additional .exe file for a menu of the shows. How do I make the 'menu' exe autorun so that only the menu appears on the screen CD is inserted into the drive?

Ron,

Question:

How can I make my presentation (.EXE file) starts just after inserting

CD into the drive?

Answer:

Create new document with name "autorun.inf" using any

text editor (e.g. Notepad) and write the following strings:

[autorun]

open=YourPresentation.exe

icon=YourPresentation.exe

(Note: instead of "icon=YourPresentation.exe" you can write "icon=YourIcon.ico")

where "YourPresentation.exe" is the name of your presentation.

This file ("autorun.inf") must be copied to CD disk with your presentation.

Note : Your own menu show name will replace the YourPresentation.exe in the above locations.

Put all files on CD ROOT if you want to keep it simple ( not using folders or paths)
