I have TRIED to get the Cd Player to AUTORUN by using the properties tab of cd player and entering the details on CH000130.
I was advised to try entering the script line " c:\windows\cdplayer.exe -play" to the edit box.
This hasnt worked either. Can anyone suggest where or how I might get my CD's Data CD etc to autorun in the future. Thank youI have A Dell dimension 4600 1 Gig RAM, Pentium 4, WD500 Gig SATA drive, Windows XP Sp3.(Recently a clean install on the NEW drive)
When I tried to load MS Office I noticed this problem and tested the theory each time I loaded a Cd into the player.
After resetting the options in properties Cd Player I still cant get the Cd to Autoplay.Right clik the drive in My COMPUTER and select Properties...check the Auto Play settings and adjust accordingly....

Or See Here for other alternatives.Couple more things to try...

Go Start>Run, type in:
regedit
Click OK.
Registry Editor will open.

There are four registry keys to check. If any key is missing, create it (DWORD):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
- NoDriveTypeAutoRun - value "0"
- NoDriveAutoRun- value"149"
Same keys should exist at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

OR...

Download Autorun fix
Double click on fix.bat
When done, restart computer, and see, if autorun works.
If not, reverse changes, by double clicking on backup.reg created in same location where you ran fix.bat from.Thanks Broni that fixed it, I used Autorun fix.
Tested it with some music and game CD's works FINE. Thanks again.Cool
