Auto Play on PCs

OK,

I put the autorun.inf file at the root level of my CD. It points to 
"open=unity\UnityCD.exe" where the executable is in a folder called 
"Unity". In that same folder is my images folder called "media".
Anyway, it works and auto runs the standalone app on Win XP and Win 
2000.

BUT now all of my referenced images do not appear. When the exe and 
media folder were at the root level everything worked fine BUT now none 
of them work.

How it is now.

root (CD)
autorun.inf
	Unity (Folder)
		UnityCD.exe
		UnityCD.bundle (OSX)
		UnityCD (OS9)
		media (Folder)
			image1.png
			etc.

Before that every thing worked in XP and 2000 like this below. (but not 
on Win 98, which was part of what I wanted to fix)

root (CD)
UnityCD.exe
UnityCD.bundle (OSX)
UnityCD (OS9)
	media (Folder)
		image1.png
		etc.

Any help is appreciated

Tom
