Stage 3: Customize the Autorun screen for CD-ROM installations

If you are creating a CD-ROM version of your customized browser, then you can create an Autorun screen that is displayed when the user inserts the compact disc into the drive.

If you include an Autorun screen, you can provide a background bitmap and labels for two buttons: one for installing Internet Explorer and one for displaying more information. You can also customize the title bar and the text color.

Title bar text
This text appears in the title bar of the Autorun screen.

Custom background bitmap location
You can provide a bitmap that appears behind the text. Make sure the background color doesn't conflict with the text color.

Standard text color
This setting determines the color of any text that isn't part of a link.

Highlight text color
This setting determines the color of the links on the page.

Button style
You can determine the appearance of the buttons that users click to install Internet Explorer and to get more information.

• Standard beveled buttons are similar to the ones that appear in standard software programs.
• 3D bitmap buttons have a three-dimensional appearance.
• A custom button bitmap is based on a bitmap that you supply. To locate the path for the image, click Browse.

The image should be a 256-color bitmap that is 540 pixels by 357 pixels. For more information about creating this graphic, see Create a Bitmap for the Autorun Splash Screen. For more information about all the graphics, see Creating Customized Graphics.
