To make a CD load you need to create an autorun.inf file (a text file with
.inf as the extension) which is burnt onto the CD in the root directory.
Here's a couple of freeware apps that helps to create the autorun file:
http://www.ashzfall.com/products/autorun/ (55Kb)
http://www.karenware.com/powertools/ptautorun.asp (882Kb)
autorun.inf allows only programs, files that end in .exe or .com, to be
run. HTML pages can also be opened.
A typical autorun.inf file to install software would be located in the root
directory of the CD and contain three lines in text format (ASCII) like this:
[autorun]
open=setup.exe
icon=setup.exe
setup.exe would be expected to be found in the root directory of the CD.
More info about autorun files is here:

Hope this helps, contact me off-list if you run into problems.
