Hi people

Problems with Windows 2000, Ive just finshed a Macromedia Director program and published it into an .exe file and when I was running Windows 98se adding a autorun.inf note pad command to get the CD which contained the program to auto run when placed in other machines was easy, but in Windows 2000 it wont let me save it!!! As it says the file is read only format when I try and save it as Autorun.inf and it wont allow me to save this file type!!!

Can some one tell me how to switch this warning off or the ability to allow .inf saves in notepad. I need my autorun extentions!

Ive searched on the web but cant find a solution.

Any suggestions???

Thanks again
