Question

hi all, i have a question about the autorun file on a cdrom
is there a possible way for it to autorun 1 file (ex. a install file), then when it is finished installing, start another file automatically?
also is there a way to autorun a file that isnt a .exe?

thankyou!

I hope I NEVER insert a cd that autoinstalls "something" without a prompt that allows me to cancel the setup. I would be very upset if that were to happen. (Maybe that's not what you're asking.) That is different from a normal autorun.inf file that opens an existing application to run a file on the cd.

Here's a site that looks pretty good:

no i mean that when i put it in, it runs install1.exe, then i click OK etc, when its done, instead of me going to install2.exe, it automatically goes there and starts it up.

also is it possible to make an autorun, when u put in the disc, it makes a pop up that asks you if you want to copy files OK CANCEL, if you click OK, it opens a box of where the destination is and then copy?

thx
