Could anyone tell me how to create an autorun.inf such that different
executables are run for different operating systems? I want my CD to
run a different setup.exe depending on whether they are using win98 and
xp.

Thanks!

Look at a few typical autorun.inf's: They're pretty simple.

I have yet to find one that does any OS specific tasks. So apparently
its not that simple.
 
No, it won't. I want to run DIFFERENT exe's depending on the OS.

This should work

Create yourself and html page, with options for each operating system.
Determine OS using Dynamic HTML, and present the correct option for the user
to click on.

You can also write it for access to Readme files, Manuals, ...

Basically all you need is a simple (unless you want to make it ornate), html
page that loads, presents and distributes based on hyperlink click.

BTW: Autorun.inf operate based on System Architecture ([autorun.mips])

Check this link out, it will probably help you:
