    hi kids,

    im looking to burn a director project on cd that will autorun on both a mac AND pc, without any kind of "exploring" or double-clicking. i got the pc stub and autorun files all set, and it works fine, but i would like to burn a hybrid disc so that way if a potential employer puts it in his machine, it will run no matter what.

    the funniest thing is that ive been using macs for 10 years now, and i still dont know how to do it. i dont even own a pc and have that one figure out... lol

    ive been told it needs to be done using toast, but i cant find any documentation on it.

    can someone help me out? any info would be a big help!!

    thanks in advance...

    - joe.c

    I use a program called MacImage that makes a .ISO file that you can burn onto any CD and it will autostart on any computer. I think it's a Windows program. Google it and check.

    toast will do the job - when you set out all the files there is an option to select the file which will auto run on a MAC. It works OS9 - however I have had some issues with OSX, but using toast the procedure is VERY easy.
