Creating a disk with a slideshow

[killadoob]

I am looking at creating a slideshow which i have done but it is in dvd format which is not ideal for users with xp as windows media player is not the best with it.

I am looking for something that will auto start and not require a program to run it apart from on the disk. Possibly flash or something.

I hope this is not to vague as i am struggling to explain it.

Anyone know a program that could help me achieve this?

What do hardware manufactures use in their install disks - I have installed a few odd pieces of hardware, whereby upon inserting the install disk - you get a nice presentation, with image, sound, animation, and instructions pop up! I am talking about the old flatbed scanners, pre - usb type cameras, etc! I suppose some good programmer would know.
