Autoplay Won't Work! Help!!

[Orson]

I'm running an XP pc with a Matshita DVD-Rom SR-8585F. However, it
will not autoplay music CD's or DVD's. (It WILL play manually
though!).

I've tried the autofix.exe from Microsoft and installed TweakUI for
the Autoplay function to no avail.

It used to work. Until the drive failed to kick-up fast enough (if you
know what I mean).

Is there anything else I can do to force the drive to autoplay???

TIA
