| 94770 | 2002-10-31 04:10:00 | just wondering if i can get the autorun file to point to soemthing else when it has been loaded. The autorun file consists of [autorun] open=setup.exe icon=setup.exe now i have a .wmv file that i would like to autorun when the cd is loaded, the file is op.wmv, now can i do something like [autorun] open=op.wmv icon=???????? would the above work? and wot icon should be there? i tried it like this on a cdrw [autorun] open=op.wmv icon=op.wmv it didn't work. So wot can i do? Thanks in advance. cheers, v.K |

It is all detailed in the Autorun FAQ - go read it. I recommend using the utility metioned in the FAQ (Karen's ...) as I have tried it and it is very easy to use, and works well. G P |

Works well, except I have sometimes found that the icon doesn't work on my drives desktop shortcut, just on the actual drives icon in explorer - it always works for the PCworld discs, so ????? G P |
