I installed Windows XP Pro x64 on an AMD Athlon X2 and everything was
working just fine. After a couple of program installations, my DVD
drives started to show only the cd/dvd which was in the drive while the
computer was booting. If, for example, a game cd is in the drive while
the pc is booting, and i replace it with a normal data cd, the same
game icon and name still shows on the drive, and so does the context
menu.

On double-clicking windows will still look for the game's autorun and
therefore i cannot access the cd. There seems to be an AutoFix.exe
which fixes the same problem in the 32-bit version of windows, but I
can't find anything for AMD64. Anybody know how to fix this very
annoying problem ?


Thanks
