*I haven't figured it out and I'm getting burnt out trying
to.
BIOS sees the drive; Windows sees the drive and assigns a
driver letter; Windows shows a driver installed with no
conflicts or problems; Windows Explorer sees the drive.
Everything looks fine... but Windows Explorer can't see
anything on any disc UNLESS I reboot with the disc in the
drive. Then it sees the disc, shows the volume label and
contents. I then can install from that disc/play a game
that needs a disc. Obviously its not a defective drive.
Thats where I'm at... I have done the registry hack to
take out the high and low filter values and that only
temporarily let me see the content of some of the discs,
but no volume label or no autoplay.
Sadly, it looks like I might re-install everything, but
I'm sure not looking forward to it with all the various
tweaks I've made to my computer.
Searching the net for answers has yielded very little.
I've read of some people who have fixed theirs, but what
they did usually refered to software I have never
installed/used.(Roxio - Easy CD Creator or something like
that).
There is no new firmware for my drive, I've checked on
that and have already flashed the one they had a long
time ago. Like I said, I'm getting burnt out.
I might make a clone of my drive and try some more
extreme stuff before I wipe it and re-install.
Oh, another problem I have, somewhat along the same lines
is that when I delete files that go to the recycle bin,
sometimes they don't show up. The icon shows theres files
in the bin, but a double click shows nothing. However, if
I click to empty the bin, it asks me if I'm sure I want
to delete them and gives the number of files... *Shrug*
I'm amazed MS seems to know nothing about the CD problem
with so many people having it.

Did you ever get a solution to your problem? I have spent the last week
trying to fix the same issue. In the morning the
drives
were working
fine. Late in the day, after installing SP2 on a Windows XP Home PC
and new antivirus software, the drives quit. Can you help?
