Hello,

You can configure the AutoPlay options per device in Windows XP. You would have to connect each device to the computer to be able to configure it for the first time however.

1. Connect the device to the computer.
2. Goto My Computer in Windows Explorer and right-click the device you want to configure, and select properties from the context menu.
3. In the properties dialog, click the AutoPlay tab.

You can select various options here depending on the device you connected. You can choose which event handler to trigger when the device is connected or you could also turn off AutoPlay for this device.
