Dear Ty
I am not sure if your problem is exactly the same as mine was, but this may
be a fix for you (see below). To view the entire thread, see "CD Rom drive in
My Computer shows CD that has been removed."

this is quite a common error, I dont know why microsoft dun fix it in their
releases lol

what you need to do is a possible two things:

First, Run this application.

The Microsoft AutoPlay Repair Wizard scans your computer devices to find
defective AutoPlay settings, and attempts to fix those it finds. Download the
Autofix utility from here:

And second, for your incorrect contents of the CD drive XP problem

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314939
Incorrect Contents Are Displayed in Windows Explorer

If you run the first application, it should fix the autoplay ( CD drive icon
etc.. ) and the second resolution should make sure the CD contents refresh
too.
