I am embarresed to ask this!! I have somehow disabled my
CD-ROM autostart and dont know how to get it back. I have
tried seting the auto play in the CD-rom properties but
this still does not make discs start on insertion into
the drive. Selecting via Start-Run works ok so it is not
a hardware issue - I think. After inserting a disk the
mouse pointer briefly shows a disk icon then nothing
happens. Any help (novice level please) appreciated.
