DVD Autoplay issue

[loopyloops]

I'm having an issue that just started. When I plop a DVD into the DVD drive in my comp., instead of a player coming up, it opens up like this:




I've tried to reset the autoplay which works for a while but then it goes back. What could be causing this, and is there a fix?

Try this,
Rt click My Computer>Properties>click on Auto Play Tab>click on small drop down window select DVD movie>click in Actions circle ("select an action to perform")> choose the application you would like to play your DVDs>click apply/OK

Or check the "ask me what to do" box so you get a choice.

What was the application you originally had playing your DVDs?
Also try this:

Windows ME/NT/2000/XP

Ensure CD-ROM drive autoplay enabled
1. In Windows, click Start->Run
2. Type in: regedit
3. Click OK.
4. Double-click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
5. Double-click SYSTEM
6. Double-click CurrentControlSet
7. Double-click Services
8. Click once on Cdrom
9. On the right-side pane, look at the item "Autorun". You will know if your computer's autorun was indeed turned off by seeing if the value is a zero (meaning it is turned off). If the value is zero, double-click the item "Autorun" and type 1 for its value to turn autoplay on.
