If autorun has been disabled 4 data discs, then U can force it by holdin shift 4 a few secs after insertin the disc, if it enabled then holdin same key stops it autorunnin :)

Somewhere in the root of the disc will be a file called autorun.inf, open that & see what file it runs, but there shopuld be a setup.exe in the the root as well

Paula, try right clicking on your CD in windows explorer, then Properties, AutoPlay. Use the drop down box to pick the other than music option and select what you want... You may also have used TweakXP or some such program to disable autorun altogether...

Another way:

You can enable or disable the CD-ROM autorun by changing this setting, this will stop or start applications from auto launching when you insert a CD-ROM disc into your drive.
.
Open: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CDRom
Change to value of 'Autorun', or create a new DWORD value if it doesn't exist: (0=disable, 1=enable)
.
Restart Your Computer after.

Cut and paste the following (btwn the lines!) into notepad and save as "autorunenable.reg" - NOT as a .txt file... Then just click on it and reboot. ;-O

___________________ autorunenable.reg ______________________
;Disable AutoRun
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom]
"Autorun"=dword:00000001
