Full Version: Createing An Autoplay Menu
Hey Crown 
This is how I create my autoplay menus for CD-Rs:
Please keep in mind that I make my autoplay menus in Flash and save them as projector executable [EXE] files.
Once the autoplay file [the Flash projector EXE file] is on the CD-R, I open Notepad and type in the following:
Note 1: replace 'myfile.exe' in the example above with the actual name of your EXE file.
Note 2: I'm not sure if the autorun file must always be an EXE file, but till now i haven't gone wrong with them!
Then I save the Notepad document as autorun.inf [to save it with the INF extension, you will have to change the 'Save as' type to the 'All files' option].
Then I copy that autorun.inf to the CD-R.
That's about it, as far as I can tell. Although the process may be different if you're a Mac user.
Cheers!

Ok Thanks allot Machine:D
You can do what machine said that works, if you want the program to run on startup of the computer (Not on CD) then you can just copy a shortcut in the startup folder, or write to registry for it to run (in vb)
i know to always name the autoplay: autoplay.exe and the main installer setup.exe 
I use Diffrent types of programs one i use is Visual Menu Maker
