open registry editor. goto

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell

on the right hand pane, double click on (default) and enter the value as "none" (of corz wid the quotes) you should now be able to open drives on double clicking them.

after changing the folder options , check if any .ini file you find and delete it, now if you cant find INI file then just defrag your DRIVE once and check for errors.. after that run an AV to check for VIRUSES and CLEAN YOUR REGISTRY with a registry cleaner

My friend jimmyondigit, nishant_nms is right. Go to the drive in which u are having problem. Open it. Then delete or move autorun.ini file to any folder. Restart ur computer ur problem will b solved.
