    I found a couple threads on resetting autoplay for CD's & DVD's, but I have a new problem.

    I got tired of the pop-up whenever I turned on or off my digital video camera. (I have it connected via firewire for stop motion animation grabs.) I meant to hit "take no action" and checked "do this every time" but accidentally hit "open windows movie maker." So now everytime I connect, it opens windows movie maker automatically.

    I can't find where to change this. I have no autoplay options for the device as listed in the my computer area.

    Any ideas?

    Do you mean that when you connect the camera it doesn't show up in My Computer? If not, possibly look for a drive that's named removeable disk. If it's there, right click on it>properties>autoplay.

    No, it shows up in My Computer. Because it's connected with firewire (I think this is the reason) when I right-click and check the properties, there is no autoplay tab available at all.

    There may not be an easy solution, if I'm to believe this article: http://www.tweakxp.com/article37495.aspx
