How do I re-enable CD-ROM AutoRun in Windows 2000?

[Christianb 8]

VMWare turned it off and I like Autoplay.

After looking for it for a while, I got it. Open up regedit, and locate the following key:

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Cdrom

 

Change value from 0 to 1

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\Cdrom

 

Change value from 0 to 1

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom

 

Change value from 0 to 1

 

 

Good Luck.

Hi Thanks,

I really appreciate your help. The location may be a bit elusive, but the key name is blatantly obvious: Autorun.

Thanks again for the help,

Christian
