Does your CD drive show in Explorer? If not you have bigger problems.

Try using My Computer (right click), Explore, then click on the drive you have the CD in. Click the exe and it should work. It sounds like your Auto Play isn't working. Mine is doing that now for some unknown reason.

Oddly enough after using that FixIt program sober suggested, the auto.exe came up in a window and ran. Even though the fixit did not solve the problem, but SOMETHING happened so im not complaining anymore. This has happened to me before trying to run SH5 but never like this. I just had to put cd in a few times before it read. I also tried to "explore drive" option to but it wasnt working thats why i came on the forums.

Anyway thanks for the advice. What do you mean not showing up in "explorer"??
