I have a computer that has a HD, Zip, CDRW, and DVD. The HD light blinks like crazy. If I unhook the CDRW and DVD, the computer works fine. If either one is hooked up, the light blinks every second.

Now, if I hook up these 'CDROMS' and disable autoplay in regedit, the blinking stops.

I just can't use autoplay, now.

How would I be able to use both of my 'CDROMS' and use autoplay?

Or am I just cursed?

My OS is XP Pro, by the way, but this curse will happen on any version of Windows! 98, 98SE, 2000, it doesn't matter.

Thanks in advance!
