I am sure this has been asked before but I have had a look around and can't find any info. I want to create a CD so that when someone puts it into his pc, the program thats on it will auto run. How do I do that ? I am using Easy CD Creator.

If you look in on a CD ( without it auto starting, hold down the shift key after insertion to stop it ) You'll see a small text file called autorun.inf, it contains " path(s) " to the program on that particular CD that is meant to run.

Simply copy this file, and inside the settings make sure it points to the folder/program you want to run upon someone's insertion of the CD.

Example: [autorun] open=autorun.exe

where autorun.exe is the program that will start.
