the situation: since long time, i was searching how to make the PAM really automatically autorun directly from a normal usb-stick, when plugin (winxp) and NOT first showing up the context-menu of xp, where i have to choose to open the PAM by this autorun.inf first.
I mean i wanted an autostart as known from the U3-system, but this wasn't possible because therefore is needed a cd-partition on the stick that only could autorun on winxp and this seemed not to be possible on normal usb-sticks.
but now i found at last a program (even portable!), called UFDiskUtilities , that really seems to be able to create a real cd-partition on my stick.
after using it, when i plugin my usb-stick to the computer now, windows explorer shows me 2 partitions now and one of them even as cd-rom (!!!)- on a normal usb-stick!!!
my question now: what iso-file do i have to put now in this cd-rom-partition/ what do i have to do now to make the PAM autostart?
(sorry for my bad english- hope you understood anyway :-))

I used it (until my drive broke), it's pretty solid.
Or if you want to do it from only your computer (for security), you can try this:

sorry, but this isn't what i mean- all these things have to be installed on my local computer, but what i want i a REAL (!!!) autostart-functionality as the U3-system (or a cd), so that my usb-stick starts fully automatic the PAM WHEREVER i plug in my usb-stick (also other computer).
edit: i made it now- my PAM starts now immediately when i plugin my usb-stick without that i have to do anything else!!!
i just created an iso-file of the pam and the autorun.inf and copied it in the cd-partition i created with this great small tool UFDiskUtilities (exact name: UFDiskUtilities_rev02_080909 )
i think, these are good news for many people here, because there were often discussions here in the past about how to make a completely normal usb-stick autostart PAM but until i found this tool today i never heard, that this would be ever possible!!!
Congratulations, you found the MPT for your UFD-controller
All flash-controllers have a tool to set the various options offered,
it's just a matter of identifying the controller and locating the
Mass Production Tool, Flashboot.ru is a good place to start .
Note that it's not "partitions", it's LUN's that are seen as individual devices .
Some controllers support triple LUN where one must be a CD-ROM .
You can choose to set the removable media bit to "fixed", giving you 2 HDD on a stick, each can then contain 4 primary partitions, all usable simultaneously,
even under windblows .
btw : smithtechs autolauncher http://usb.smithtech.us/projects/autolauncher4u3.php
isn't installed on your machine, it's on the CD-ROM LUN .
