hi, im hoping that someone can help me! When i first
bought my computer, and put programs/games disks into the
DVD drive, they used to automatically start up on my
computer. But now, when i put a disk in, it doesn't start
up anymore. so i either have to go to Run, or to, Start-
My Computer- DVD drive- (and then click on the relevant
programs start up) why is this not doing this and can
anyone tell me how to make it back to normal and
automatically start up?

Open "My Computer".

Right-click on the icon for the DVD drive and select Properties then
go to the Autoplay tab and configure the drive.

Good luck
