I have a way for 9x, not sure on the others. How Ive done it is to create a boot floppy, then copy the contents to a folder, burn that folder to CD then set bios to boot from CD rom if capable. There you have a win9x boot cd.

There is a shareware called AUTOPLAY to help developers to add AutoPlay feature to their applications.

If you use Easy CD Creator 4.0 or greater, it has an option to create a bootable CD.
