    right-click the drive in "My Computer". Select "Properties" then select the tab "Autoplay" it will give you a choice of what type of files you want it to automatically play. Done

    # Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
    # Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom.
    # Double-click the Autorun value, and type 1 for its value. (If it's not there, create it by selecting Edit -> New -> DWORD Value, and typing "Autorun" for its name.)
    # You may have to log out and then log back in for this change to take effect.
