How do you en/disable autoplay (CD drive) in Win XP Home ?? I have administrator privaledges if that matters, and have looked through everything in control panel. [img]graemlins/confused5.gif[/img]

I could email it to you. OR I could just give you a link like this one. http://www.guru3d.com/files/ and let you get it yourself. this site also has the latest nVidia drivers. And several other utilities as well. Have a browse. I think I downloaded about 15 files in all.
I could have sworn on XP had a box that popped up on the autoload and one of the boxes said "dont ask me again". Tick the box and click NO. Knowing XP it wont work permanently. I know theres a way to do it but you might mess something else up trying to get rid of autoplay if you do it through msconfig.

Right click the drive icon in My computer and select properties. Choose the Autoplay tab and go to it! It's a hokey setup and will take some time and a few clicks, but you can customize for a few different kinds of cd types. Unfortunately in XP home, that's pretty much the only way to do it without editing the registry or using a proggie like Tweak XP. Just a side note, Tweak XP is worth the download as it has some rather good customizing features. While your at it grab Bootvis as well to optimize your boot times.
