Not Detecting Discs!

[djspitfire]

my windows is not detecting discs i insert into my pc notmally when u put a cd in, it auto plays and the icon changes in my computer. This does not happen i have ran spybot and norton antivrus and my pc is clear but i am still hiving the problem i have not tampered with any hardwear on my pc at all

Is this xp dj?

If so, open my computer, right click on the drive and click properties. select the autoplay tab, it should be set to "prompt me each time to choose an action"

yes it is xp and they are already set to "prompt me each time to choose an action" but i am not prompted. Plus i have an extra disc drive as well which i dont have but for some reason it is in my computer?

I think it could be my ipod but i am not sure

[NooNoo]

what is it described as? Removable drive? that would be the ipod.

Did you install nero?

I have such problems too.
When I go to my computer, I can't see my cd-r drive there.
But now my cd drive can be detected.

Go to the device manager
find your cd drive's name.
right click it
click remove
go to add new hardware wizard at control panel
let the wizard detect for new hardware.
since you removed the cd-drive at device manager, you drive is counted as a
new hardware.
If it detects the drive, there should be a box at the taskbar with an additional
icon.
Wait a while till it says the drive is ready for use.

I hope this helps
