Help to make install CD from files

Post by erock »

Hi,

We have the files we downloaded from Ulead for PI12, and so we can keep them in a usable way, we would like to make a CD that installs like the boxed one would.

At the moment we have about 12 .exe files.

Any help here please?

Thanks

This is the same for any CD/DVD that you wish to start running upon insertion. In the root of the CD/DVD there must be a small file named
Autorun.inf

You can create one with Windows Notepad.
A typical autorun.inf file looks like this

[Autorun]
OPEN=Autorun.exe


The important line here is OPEN=Autorun.exe
The computer will then look for a file named Autorun.exe and run it.
If your setup file was called setup.exe then your Autorun.inf file would look like this:

[Autorun]
OPEN=Setup.exe
