Those are usually done with VB. They are an embedded web page on the most
recent ones. You would need to embed a browsing enginge, and a web page that
points to your files to do that. You could do something in perl/tk for windows
to achieve the same thing.

gives you some options on what to install or actually more like when installing a logitech product
an the screen is just a bunch of links to either read a text file or run an install program.

utility to make the CDs features obvious to stupid users.
