Advanced Technology Imprint: Auto-Run Data Load

Disclaimer:

There are a great deal of specialized technical issues related to any and all parts of a auto-run data load. Before deciding on one of these please be sure to discuss possible limitations with one of our data load specialists. We do not offer testing for any files or auto run procedures you provide.

Auto run Explanation:

How we expect it to work: Simply plug a USB drive in and the data stored on the drive will automatically run on your computer. Examples could be web sites loading up, presentations starting up, videos automatically playing, software automatically installing and running.

The reality of Auto-Run: Not every computer is the same, operating systems differ, applications installed differ, hardware configurations differ, user rights and privileges differ- so not every auto run program can be expected to run the exact same way.

Our Auto Run Solutions: We offer 2 different types of auto-run solutions, each has their benefits and disadvantages. Please take the time to examine each option to determine which will work the best for you. If you have any questions or concerns always consult with your sales representative and our data load specialists will walk you through the whole process.
