Default XP Nerds, I need some help.

Bottom line goal is to be able to play a DVD full of folders filled with images as a slideshow.

I figure the easiest way to do this is to use XP's slideshow feature. However, this slideshow feature is only available when going into the My Picture folder, or its subfolders. Of course the DVD is not either of those. I read that in addition to having the slideshow feature for the My Picture folder and its subfolders, it also applies to "folders customized as a picture folder." I can not find out how to "customized a folder into a picture folder."

Any help? h:

Thanks.

I get the slideshow option no matter where I open a pic, just as long as it opens with Microsoft picture and fax viewer :dunno:

did you right click the folder and go to customize?

Ok, I just tried this on my laptop, and it looks like this "auto-play" option does not always come up.

And now, my drive just took a shit. Fuck it, going to sleep.
