I would like to have a browser pop-up with my Mpeg gallery when the CD (containing all files) is inserted. How's that done? Use Autorun.inf with htm reference?
 
pc utilities coverdisk has a file called uf autorun creator.
It create's html-based front ends for your CD's that launch on incertion.
i dont know if this app is any good have not tried it but u get a good mag and other apps for ur trouble.
 
Thanks... I found a number of Auto-Run utilities on download.cnet.com.
 
Dude autorunning cd's is easy! Just do this:

In the root of the cd you put the file "autorun.inf".
In the file itself just type this :

[autorun]
OPEN=SETUP.EXE <--- file being run automatically
ICON=ICON.ICO <--- icon for the cd in windows explorer

And your done, but it MUST be in the root of the cd!

Good luck,
