autorun.inf *IS* the only way Win95/98/ME/2K can 'auto run' a CD when inserted.

just edit the file so it loads the PPT file, or the viewer with the PPT file as 
a command line.

should work fine.

If I remember.. theres some software out on the net somewhere that I used a 
couple of years ago, that let you create free splash screens, specifically for 
launching stuff like that... very customizable too.. open up explorer windows, 
readme's, launch setup.exe's etc...

of course now most people have a browser, it's just as easy to do this in a 
webpage.


Regards,
Rohan.
