I ordered from Amazon because I wanted to be sure to get the manual, booklet, etc. I just hope the CD isn't all scratched up.

Anyway, I'm reading in this forum that LB2 installation kills autorun. Someone else said they discovered th fix but failed to list what the fix is. Why is is a secret? Can anyone tell me what the fix is, if any, to that problem?

Fix for what issue though, LB2's behaviour of turning off autorun, or how to turn Autorun back on?

I've never seen this issue personally, back in the 95/98/ME days I had Autorun turned off anyhow.
Today I use the ISO method.

Positive, I'm not talking about turning it off, I'm talking about turning it back on. There is another thread that talks about how when you install LB2 it automatically changes the register to turn autorun 'off.' So, before I install LB2, I want to know how to turn it back on.

Yes, I understand you want it turned on.

The links above show you how to turn it off, however I'm guessing the same registry entries can be used to turn it on. Try searching for that based on some of the info provided. I looked for a bit, didn't spend much time.
