ViolentGreen 0 Posted October 6, 2003 with the new cds coming out that install software without your permission via autoplay, I want to disable it. I know I have seen the option somewhere before but i can't seem to find it now. Anyone know? Share this post Link to post
Sampson 0 Posted October 6, 2003 Start regedit from Run then System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CDRom] Value Name: Autorun Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value) Value Data: (0=disable, 1=enable) Share this post Link to post

I'll try that. I thought there was an option to do it without editing the registry. I might be thinking of 98 though. Thanks for the reply Share this post Link to post
