AutoPlay in Windows XP Pro

[Nick]

My PC is setup for Digital Video Editing. I have an
external Analog to Digital Video converter. When I turn on
this device AutoPlay pops up and says "Windows can perform
the same action each time you connect this device", the
AutoPlay window then displays my editing applications such
as Adobe Premier Pro, Pinnacle Studio 8, etc.
My questions are: 1. Can I add or remove the editing
applications that I want to appear in this window? 2. What
if this window is not displaying all the editing
applications that I have on my PC? 3. Is there a limit as
to how many editing applications AutoPlay can display?

Thanks, Nick
