how do you turn off CD-Rom autorun

[shilpa]

Every time I put a cd in my cd-rom, a new window pop ups automatically asking me to open it in which file. I have looked around to disable it but cannot really find any options. So can anyone please tell me how to turn off CD-Rom autorun manually or automatically? Thank you

If you are on Windows XP then try this method on How to disable the CD-ROM autorun function.

Hope that helps

Thats pretty easy, just go to Start/Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/AutoPlay.
To never see the AutoPlay dialog box, select "Take no action" next to the device or disc.
