Autorun.inf Laptop Problem

[cyrus]

I've created an Autorun.inf file to open a Word document on CD. It
works fine on all the desktops in my office but doesn't seem to work on
the laptops. Any reason for this?

There is an option somewhere in Windows, perhaps the registry, that
allows you to disable Autorun. Is autorun disabled on all the laptops?

No, autorun is enabled and I hear the CD start to spin but the Word
document doesn't open as it does on the desktops. Strange.

Make a new file in notepad and paste the following:

@echo starting wordocument...
@start worddoc.doc
@exit

Click file save as... type "autorun.bat". Save it in the same directory
as the autorun.ini file. Make the autorun.ini file start the
autorun.bat file.
