i also fell into a problem after installing AutoPatcher XP.....but after doing system restore it was all fine again....u can try restoring your comp to about 2-3 days before installing AutoPatcer XP.....also in future while running AutoPatcher, take time to read all the contents of its package install only those things which you want.....

Dude Ankit, Regarding the Autoplay, try the Autoplay Repair Wizard (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=c680a7b6-e8fa-45c4-a171-1b389cfacdad&displaylang=en).

The Microsoft AutoPlay Repair Wizard scans your computer devices to find defective AutoPlay settings, and attempts to fix those it finds.

Sorry yaar not quite sure on Jpeg's not showing thumbnails.

First of all, try a System Restore. That usually solves Autopatcher - related probs. Regarding the jpg thumbnail problem, take a look at this (http://www.tech-pro.co.uk/howto_011.html) page. It's for Win98 but it'll work in 2k and XP also. Give it a try.

heres wat u gotta do(if u have xp pro)



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Cdrom]
"AutoRun"=dword:0000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"allocatecdroms"="0"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoDriveTypeAutoRun"=dword:00000091

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoSaveSettings"=dword:00000000

if u preper to do it automatically then:

run the following reg entry and it will automatically do the job

Yes, I have also heard that Autopatcher is giving some problems. One of my friend said that he had some problem related to Internet due to Autopatcher. He says sometimes when his PC hangs n he is connected to the net,after shuting down or restatrting, net doesnt dissconnect. Is it true???

[ankit_biz]

After installing autopatcher xp i was on the LAND OF THE BLUE SCREENS

The thing with AutoPatcher is that one needs to look carefully and see what each and every tweak and patch is about. Then you gotta figure out whether its risky or not, and install the ones you think are beneficial. It is a time-consuming process, but it has worked very well for me.

Oh yeah, about the BSODs, I had those when I was running my P4 - it happens when multiple patches are installed simultaneously like AutoPatcher does.

This bug somehow disappeared after I got my AMD64 :-\
