insert CD into drive ... nothing happens
why ? - its not mounted
only mounts one time on boot
manual mount works ... can read CD but does not actualise rest of windows ..
autostart is turned on but does not work since the cd is not mounted

so you cannot acces a cd when you insert it into your drive?
or is it that autorun doesnt start whatever it is that's on the cd?

:hmm: ?
I can acess the CD but its not automatically mounted ...
mounted = analyse what is in the drive ...
there is no autorun because its not mounted ... windows does simply not know there is a new CD since it does not mount
If I manually open the CD drive via workspace ... manual mount happens and I can read content but only that ... the icon for CD Drive will not change and not autorun will start since the manual mount does only show files nothin more
