I'm sorry about that. The hard drive i am talking about is not my primary
hard drive, but one just for storage. Basically, the icon for my hard drive
in My Computer has changed into a cd-rom drive icon. If I try to run a
program that was installed on that drive it asks me to insert a cd. Also it’s
a built in hard drive and not an external one.

So is the "changed" hard drive still the same hard drive, or is it actually
a CD drive?
I don't think I have ever seen XP shift drive letters around once they are
assigned, regardless of removing disks etc.
Do you have a file called autorun.inf in the root of the HDD. I'm not sure
if this applies to XP but I believe it can cause Windows to think the drive
is a CDROM.
