Hi all, hope you can help with this little problem...
When I insert a blank CD or DVD into my CD/DVD burner I used to get a small
box opening that said " Blank CD. What do you want Windows to do?" and there
were various options listed that could chose.
This box no longer appears when I insert a blank CD or DVD.
How do I reinstae it?

Probably need to turn AutoPlay back on. Double click on My Computer and
right click on your CD/DVD drive and hit properties. There should be a tab
there that says AutoPlay. Enable it for the type of action you want (Blank
CD/DVD).
 
Thanks Galen, that did it.
