Hi, I have WinXP Pro, whenever I insert a CD in the Drive it does not open
automatically. I have to click the CD drive icon.
Is there a way to make it start automatically? Any info is appreciated.

Doc

Double click MyComputer on the desktop.
Right click your DVD/CD drive.
Click "Properties" in the popup menu.
Click the "AutoPlay" tab.
Click the dropdown arrow to select the content type of disk.
Click on the "Select an Action to Perform" tic circle.
Select the Action to Perform.
Click Apply.
