From: Victor and TJ Friedmann on 13 Apr 2010 19:58 I have an autostarting ppt presentation with pptviewer on CD. I copied all the files including the autorun.inf which has in it: [autorun] open=PPTVIEW.EXE /L "playlist.txt" And, although the CD autoplays just fine on my WinXP machines, the memory stick will not autoplay on WinXP but does autoplay on Vista. How can I modify the autorun.inf file to run from my memory stick? Thanks, Vic
