Oops....hate to bring this back up but I thought I had done exactly as recommended (i.e., I did exactly as BillJohnson had suggested). I opened "My Computer", did "explore", clicked on Autoplay and it started the loading in thingy again, i.e., no options came up. When I canceled the running Autoplay window, then up came the screen that had several options, one of which was "Take No Action". That's the option I had clicked on earlier assuming it solved the problem. But I just re-plugged in the BIAB HD and the Autoplay popup came up and started its running process again....so I'm back where I started and the "Take No Action" was the only one of the several Autoplay choices that seemed appropriate.

I have Windows XP Professional....of course, clicking on Cancel when Autoplay starts running causes it to stop; I just don't want it to come up in the first place. Any other suggestions to keep it from popping up and start running once I plug the HD in?

Thanks in advance,
