Default Re: StarFury CD check is screwed up!!

Phoenix-D, There's a little known Windows secret that will help you with the Autoplay/install thing..

When you put the CD in the tray hold down the SHIFT key until the CD light goes out (5-10 seconds). This will prevent the auto run/install from running. This is much handier than turning off autoplay in the CD properties as some have suggested. This works with all Versions of Windows, at least from Win95 on.

My tip for the day.

I do hope Aaron removes the CD check in the patch. I wish they would just use a CD key instead. Anything so I don't have to mess with the dang CD everytime I want to play. And let's not even talk about laptops. I think the battery would die in about 15 minutes.
