Incorrect Contents Are Displayed in Windows Explorer

[Guest]

Has anyone have anymore information on this issue. This issue as been buggin
me for a while now and have not found a good resolution to get the next media
inserted to be recognized with out restarting the computer or using a
different drive. I have 2 different drives installed. All exhibit the same
issue. 1st media is recongnized then remove and insert something new and it
dislayes the previous media info. I have SP2 installed with all updates. Any
other work around for this? I've looked at the other posts and nothing seems
to be substancial. Please let me know. Thank you. I notice that this happens
in Windows 2000 as well with SP4.

Does pressing the F5 key refresh the display to show the correct info?

1. Open Device Manager.
2. Expand to DVD/CD-ROM Drives
3. Select your CD drive e.g. Creative CD4020E ST980828
4. Right-click and choose Uninstall.
5. When uninstall complete. Click Action menu and choose "Scan for hardware
changes". Windows will automatically re-install your CD drivers without
asking you for any drivers. Make a restart if you wish then use different
media. See if this method works.

Best of luck and let us know if this information helps you.

F5 doesn't work. Tried that already.
