Umm, I think there probably is... But you'll have to search google.

Autorun Creator...

There we go :p... That wasn't so hard...

here are some others.

Easy Autorun Creator

Even better: Autorun is governed by a file called 'autorun.inf'.

code:
[AUTORUN]
icon=\firefox\firefox.exe,0
shell\portablefirefox = Portable &Firefox
shell\portablefirefox\command = firefox\PortableFirefox.exe
shell\portablethunderbird = Portable &Thunderbird
shell\portablethunderbird\command = thunderbird\PortableThunderbird.exe
is the one on my pen drive. OK, it doesn't have something that actually runs an app, but a quick Google will find that sort of info ;)

Although I don't think he meant adding a DVD-menu to a disc, but rather use the autorun.inf file. ;)

U can use this program (looks very cheap, but its free :p )

Here is a list of programs (Just scroll down, to find the ones with CD Menu...)

Or you can create a .html and make it run that on startup, using the autorun.inf . Wait i got an article in a mag, ill get it if you want. PM me...

BTW, mwe99, did you make that PPt. Cuz it looks kinda... erm... Crap :p no offence. Why not a PDF or something?

Nope i did not :P my teacher did that but he did it just to show it easier than in a word document, it just outlines the basic stuff for an autorun which works well for me

He just did it quick right? Weve got an IT teacher who would take like 1/2 Hour to something as good as that, yes he sucks :p . He used to teach sports :dodgy:
