Hi,
I have successfully created autorun and autoplay PowerPoint CDROMs which work in Win 95 and 98. However to complete my hat-trick I want the CDs to work in Windows 2000.
Here's what happens
1. On one Win2K machine the autoplay worked, but very slowly, then the
show slides worked OK until the first MPEG1 slide - it took 30 seconds to play.
The next slide with an MPEG1 movie in did not play at all, just stayed on the black square.
The next Win2K experiment was on a laptop. The autoplay began, suddenly flashed up the first slide and then in a millisecond just disappeared as quickly, no sign of the show. We had to go to the CD and press the Autorun icon and the same thing again. Only when we double clicked the Powerpoint.ppt, did it play alright.
So here's my question(s):-
1. does Win2K have a problem with Autorun CDs?
2.If so how do I overcome this by including something on my CDs?
3. Does anyone know of anything I can do to make my Powerpoint shows, including MPEG1 movies, autorun and play in Windows 2000?
any help gratefully received.
Thanks Chris
ps I can include a list of the .dlls etc I had to include on the CD to get it to run in Win 95 and Win 98 with no problems.
