How do I disable realpayer to detect cds?
It's getting really annoying when I place in a data cd and realplayer switches tasks.  I don't want it to do that.  I'd like to be able to disable realpayer as a cd reader.  I'm not sure how to do that.

or i think you can just hold down the shift button every time you put a CD in if you dont want it to run realplayer
or you can remove Real Players file association from the tyoe of media thats on the cd TOOLS > Preferences > Mediatypes

Well, when I tried deselecting the media types realplayer still read the files from the disc.  But it worked great for telling it what file types to read.  I found using properties on the cd drive worked out great.  Thx for your help all.  
thanks for the grade sazukaChan
