Hello,
I just got a new computer for christmas: HP pavillion a6220.uk, I am
running vista home premium 32bit which came with it. The problem im
having is that the autoplay feature doesnt seem to be working, I insert
my disc but the autoplay doesn't pop up, I can acsess the files from
doing it manually (going to my computer etc) but I dont really like
having to do this all the time. So if you know why this is not working
please post, thanks

Hi, Death.

Try Control Panel | AutoPlay.

If you have questions, please post back with details of step-by-step what
you did and what results you saw.

Check AutoPlay first in control panel. Failing that check this link from my
website:

This option is not for the faint hearted, so read the instructions 'very
carefully' before proceeding.
