[I. C. Bray]

To change how your computer handles multimedia content

  1.. Open My Computer
  2.. Under Devices with Removable Storage, right-click the device you want, 
such as a digital camera or CD-ROM drive, and then click Properties.
  3.. On the AutoPlay tab, click the multimedia content type you want to 
change.
  4.. Under Actions, click the action you want Windows to perform when it 
detects the media type you selected.
