Hi everyone, I have a problem. I have a PC with Windows XP SP2 running. The PC is never connected to the internet. I have ESET and Kaspersky running on it. It's config is: Intel Core 2 Duo @2.2 Ghz, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB HDD (4 partitions C,D,E,F out of which F: holds Vista Business, which I never use). My problem starts here: When I insert any optical disk into the DVD Drive, its name is not shown but the disk is loaded! There is no Autorun and sometimes, it does not load at all!!!! Please help as I seldom use pen drives.

[offtopic]It's advisable not to run more than one anti-virus. It'll lead to conflicts[/offtopic]

Why are you using two anti-viruses ? it will lead to conflict issues, and if you want to open blank cd's then goto my computer, right click cd drive and goto recording option and tick the "enable recording on this drive"
