    service pack 2 automaticly disables autorun, could be that.

    So -- can you "enable" autorun? If so, can you give me the step-by-step instructions?

    I've got XP service pack 2 and I'm having this problem also. Under "my computer" it doesn't list my cd-rom drives anymore either, only my hard disks, floppy, and account files. Does anyone know how to enable the autorun, or run CD's from the "run" program? Any help is appreciated.
