Who knows what program is used to make these? Like when you insert a Hamumu CD?

You can make any regular program autorun from a CD by including a plaintext file called "autorun.inf" (no txt extension) that contains the following:


[autorun]
open=filename.exe


Where "filename.exe" is the program you want to open. See the KB article for a detailed list of usable tags.

Since the autorun can be any standard executable, you could use any programming language that compiles to a stand-alone EXE to create your own menu.

Thanks, SOkko, I have DarkBasic but I don't understand it that much! :lol: It really ISN'T for beginners.
