I don't see Lisa's question, but if you're talking about the autoplay
dialog that comes up when you insert a CD or USB stick then go to the
search box in the start menu of Windows 7, type "autoplay" and hit
enter. This will bring up a dialog box where you'll be able to configure
this. I hope this will help Lisa as well.

Note that I didn't see what version of Windows you were running, so I
assumed it was Windows 7. Also, I don't really run Windows anymore, so I
looked this up with Google. I did check it though in the copy of Windows
7 I run in a virtual machine under Ubuntu, so it does seem to work.
