Is it possible to create an auto run file for a cd? I have a movie and some pictures on a cd that use Quicktime and want the player to start automatically once the cd is inserted. I plan to re-burn everything to a new cd once everything is completed.
 
If you look at a few autorun files, you'll quickly see what's in them...

they're pretty simple.
 
You can open them with notepad and just change the exe name to the name of your exe. Just open an existing one, make changes, and go to file > save as. If you are using installshield or something similair they may create one for you.

Also, the end user can disable autorun in windows. So give directoins if autorun is disabled. It is often obvious to open the setup.exe file, but end users are often not very bright.
