Enable Autoplay in Windows XP?

Question

How can I enable the Autoplay prompt in Windows XP?

I have tried the following things:

• right clicking the drive and selecting autoplay and have the radio button for prompt checked.
• I have tried Microsoft's autofix.exe as well. Neither have done the trick. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/CDROM, there is an Autorun - REG_DWORD_0x00000001 (1).
