    quite a few in the geeks forum mention this:

    “Modifying HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Policies\Explorer to 91 (hex) worked for me.”

    but I do not have that folder in registry? I have up to current ver, then nothing.

    sadly, at present, thats out of the question. Reinstall, easy enough, will delete all HDD and zillions of files and images.

    uh, sounds like a "backup time" and then reinstall, if you ask me.......

    But try this first:

    Oh boy.....okay, I know this is a stupid question, but have you tried this?
    Change AutoPlay settings

    and here is W7, but it's basically the same as Vista
    How enable the dialog box when a cd or a removable disk is inserted?

    I am just wondering, if these don't work, maybe you should go into device manager and delete your CD drive. Then let the new hardware wizard find it and install it again?

    and you did this too, right?

    start>run>regedit

    Navigate to the following subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\CDRom

    Look down the list of option in the Right Hand pane of the Registry editor Window and locate the AutoRun option

    If the AutoRun value is 1 (one) then AutoRun is enabled. If it is 0 (zero) then it is disabled. To re-enable it, Right Click on the AutoRun option, Select Modify and in the Value Data box type: 1 (one), then Press OK

    Red Devil,
    Have you checked in Services to make sure that AutoRun Shell is set to "automatic" and not manual or disabled? In Vista, I believe it's called Shell Hardware Detection

    Then I would go into MSCONFIG from RUN
    Look in Services Tab and make sure that Shell Hardware Detection box is checked
