You have to create the CD with two partitions--one for Mac & one for Windows. Windows can't read the mac formatting (HFS/HFS+ vs.FAT/FAT32 or NTFS for Windows), so you need to create a hybrid CD on a Mac--I use Toast to do it, and when you make the Mac partition, an option in the CD burning session is to autoplay. Also the .hqx file Flash makes is not an executable file on the mac, it's basically the equavalent of a zip file on windows. You need to open the hqx on a mac and unzip it.

If you want, I could create a master for you for a couple of bucks for the CD (or more if you're feeling generous). Email me at mrmultimedia@yahoo.com if you want.
