I am running XP home edition and have intstalled
everything on my computer with these drives and just
recently both my cdrom & cdburner will not autoplay or
read any cd's. Error says "disks not formatted for
windows" but if I play a game that looks for the cd it
recognizes the cd.

I've updated drivers still didn't help. Any suggestions?

Download this fix to fix missing Cd drives or drives with error 39
etc:
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/scripts_d...cd_dvd_fix.htm. Download
the vbs
script file, double click it and click yes when prompted. You will
need to
reboot for the changes to take effect.
