Chapter 7 Optimizing your HP Jornada 131

Do not use excessive force when opening the expansion module or when installing or removing a PC Card or CompactFlash Card.

Using the auto run feature

Your HP Jornada includes an auto run feature, which enables you to automatically start a program stored on a PC Card or CompactFlash Card simply by inserting the card into your HP Jornada. This feature is designed for use by advanced users.

To use the auto run feature, create a text file named Autorun.inf and copy the file to the PC Card or CompactFlash Card. The Autorun.inf file contains the command to start a single program that is also stored on the PC Card or CompactFlash Card.

1.Install the PC Card or CompactFlash Card contain- ing the program you want to run automatically. (See instructions earlier in this chapter.)

2.In Pocket Word, create a document containing the following text:[autorun.sh3]open=filename.exe

where filename.exe is the name of the program (.exe file) in the root directory of the PC Card or Compact- Flash Card.

3.On the File menu, tap Save As.4.Under Name, type autorun.5.Under Type, select Unicode Text Document.

6.Browse to the root folder of the PC Card or Compact- Flash Card, and then tap OK.
