Leapo Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Microsoft chose the wrong time to add this functionality to Windows, that's for sure. Turns out, Windows Vista now actively searches newly inserted removable media (like USB flash drives) for an autorun.ini to execute. Kinda surprised me when Pstart came up all by itself when I plugged in my clean (non-switchblade) flash drive. Yeah, it's kinda useless until someone builds a more Vista compatible switchblade, but it does open up some new doors for those of us who don't have U3 flash drives.

Garda Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 just goes to show you something all the effort that went into making U3, ie, emulating a CD on a USB device using modified hardware. You can have exactly the same functionality if you just get windows to look for an autorun.ini on a regular USB device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
