In winxp, copied a few files which had to be burnt on a cd in c drive. deleted the same and now when opening c drive from my computer, it gives an error "shortcut to cdsetup.exe not found". Rt click on c drive and clicking on explore and double clicking on explorer opens the drive contents of c. did i delete something more?

I am not sure what went wrong, but look in startup folders for "cdsetup". If you do not find it try searching the registry.
it would be found in HKLM or poss. HKCU
\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\
and could be in
Run
Runonce
RunonceEx

Please backup your registry before altering it. If you are not familiar with the registry it is not recommended to make any changes as your system could be rendered useless from a mistake.
