Autorun doesn't work

Hi, I have windows vista home premium and my autorun doesn't work... My DVD drive loads the DVD but it doesn't show the icon and when I click it, it says new cd what do you want to name it unless i end process explorer and start it up again which is pretty frustrating! I have tried looking for some keys in regedit but were unable to find them..

Re: Autorun doesn't work

Have you looked in the Control Panel - Autoplay- to check- put a tick in the
little box if there isnt one !!
