A. Quick procedure to make Autorun CD

• Download and unzip AutoRun.zip

Place AutoRun.exe, Autorun.inf, and Contents.html in the CD root folder

• Create your .html file with hotlinks to images, etc. therein

• Name this file Contents.html and overwrite the unzipped Contents.html file

• When the CD starts, Contents.html will be displayed, whereafter you can easily navigate to the images you want to view.

• Or, just put the two Autorun files in the root folder, open the .inf file, and change the path to your file (e.g., .doc, .exe, etc.).
