Hi
Just a small problem I think. When a put a disc into a drive a window does
not pop up to give you the options of viewing the files on the disc etc as
it used too in XP. Is there something that is turned off or does Vista not
do this.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Sue

Sue, an application may have disabled this feature - strangely mine does it
every time I re-image my drive from my backup discs.

Give this a try from my website:

It always works for me

Check in the control panel in autoplay and change the setting to ask
everytime or to open.
