AutoRun Problems

[michael82]

Hi,

 

I have a Windows 7, 4GB RAM, 500GB HD, Advent laptop, and I tried to install a game yesterday, and nothing happened when I entered the CD-ROM into the drive, and I clicked on 'autorun' and 'setup' and nthing happened. I did get a msg aout my Internet Security settings need changing but I don't know what to, and I am not sure how. I have not changed any settings from my default. Someone said to me it could be my firewall, I disabled it and tried the CD again but still nothing happened.

 

I would appreciate any help.

 

Thank you.

 

Michael.

Hi Michael and welcome to fpch.

 

I am not a Win7 user so my input will be limited - until somebody else can take over.

 

(hope this is the same as Vista)

Start > Run

Type in .....devmgmt.msc....ENTER

Click the + next to DVD CD ROM

 

Are there any yellow exclamation marks?

 

What is listed?

what game and are you running win7 x86 or x64?

and a lot of games still have compatabilty problems in windows 7 but you could try right clicking on the setup file and hit run as admin.
