I have Intel Core i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20GHz, 8,0GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics
MS Windows 7 Home Premium v. 6.1 64-bit SP1
I have Kaspersky Internet Security 2014, and I have Google Talk, Skype, and Memeo Backup Premium Pro running in the background.

I put an application disc in the disc drive and Autorun doesn't start.

What do I need to do to make it work?

Autoplay may be turned off, but that's probably a GOOD thing. A while back, autorun was being used as a vector to autorun/auto install malware from sources like flash drives that were infected. Just run it manually. There should be an EXE or MSI file on the CD.
