You can start by explaining in detail what you mean - do you have a non removable drive that is trying to start up every time you boot with autoplay, or is Vista trying to load a non existent drive, or what?

Remember, we cannot see, touch, or interact with the machine - so you have to be our eyes and ears (and hands) for us - and in order to direct you correctly we have to know *exactly* what is going on.

You might want to elaborate a little more on what is trying to autoplay. Also is this autoplaying when the computer boots up or randomly? Like he said before, we can not physically see your screen or interact with it so more details really helps us help you. You can also disable auto play in Windows so this does not happen.

This article might help in disabling the autoplay feature
