    Missing options
    « on: June 06, 2009, 01:52:37 PM »
    When I used to put a CD in the disk drive or plug my Camera into the USB slot a menu used to automatically come up on the screen with different options for what I would like to do.  Now That is gone does anyone know where I go to to get that option screen back.  OS is Windows XP.

    Thanks

      1. Open 'My Computer'
      2. Right click on the device (CD Drive/USB Camera)
      3. Hit 'Properties'
      4. Click the Auto-play tab
      5. Go through each format in the Drop down menu (Music File, Pictures, ect) and then select "Prompt me each time to choose an action."

      You'll have to do this for each device.
      Don't forget to give thanks if I was able to help ya! Please?

        Auto play, yes I did as instructed but still nothing.  I changed all on all devices hit apply but nothing.
