Auto Play in Win XP

Post by Dan Dowd »

I just installed Roxio 7.5 and it seems that it has dissabled autorun. I have been to the MS help site and there is no mention how to enable it. They did mention in the regristry to change something there, but I did not have that file and after further reading it said that was for Win 2000. There is no help on the Roxio site either. I also have Win Media player 10 installed.

I would try a reboot first. Then I would try the tips below:

WinXP Home

Dan, check Roxio, there may be an option to disable/enable autoplay.

Thanks Bob,Jack and Vern. I tried these things but nothing helped. I then did a google search and found a cite that had the fix for this and even put it in the regestry for me. It has a lot of other solutions for many computer problems.
