Hi there,
Upgraded from XP to Vista and got problem with the DVD-drive and DVD-RW-drive.
When switching the disc (CD or DVD) in the drive the content will not update even if I klick the refresh button in the meny bar. The content of the first disc are still there and if you try to open a file Vista will say that it cant find the file. Ive only been able to clear the content by restarting the computer and thats a pretty bad idea if you need to install a game set on several discs.
A clue to what is wrong might be that I have not been able to get the drives to autostart the disc inserted in the drive.
Have anyone experienced a similar problem and found a solution?
Thankful for answers, /GusTheMagic

Hello Gus,
Thanks for posting in our newsgroup.
I am sorry for the delay due to the weekend.
From your description, I know that you upgraded computer from XP to Vista. When you replace the disc (CD or DVD) in the drive the content will not update even click the Fresh button. If I am off-base, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Based on my research on this issue, please take the following step to narrow down this issue:
Step 1: You may try using another CD/DVD media. Will the same issue reoccur?
Step 2: I suggest we use another type of DVD Rom to narrow down whether the issue is caused by DVD drive or Windows Vista itself.
If other DVD Drive works, I suggest we contact DVD hardware support to see if they have released Vista compatible driver.
Step 3: If you have Vista compatible driver. Please replace the existing driver
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel. 2. If Control Panel is in Category view, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System. If Control Panel is in Classic view, double-click System. 3. On the Hardware tab, click Device Manager. 4. Click the drive with the question mark next to it. 5. On the Action menu, click Uninstall. When you are prompted to confirm the removal, click OK. 6. Repeat steps 4 through 5 for any other drives with question marks. 7. On the Action menu, click Scan for hardware changes.
Step 4: You may let him check the following registry keys. If they exist, please delete them:
1. Click Start, and then click Run. 2. In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK. 3. Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Class/{4d36e965-e325-11c e-bfc1-08002be10318} 4. On the File menu, click Export. 5. In the File name box, type savedkey, and then click Save. 6. Click the REG_MULTI_SZ data type UpperFilters, and then click Delete on the Edit menu. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.
Note If this data type is missing, go to Method 2. 7. Click the REG_MULTI_SZ data type LowerFilters, and then click Delete on the Edit menu. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes. 8. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive appears to be missing after you install Windows XP or Windows Vista Beta 2 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320553/en-us
Also, the problem is not related to autoplay feature of DVD-ROM, since you must see the folders and files first, then it can perform autoplay.
Hope the information helps.
I am looking forward to hear from you.
If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Best regards,
Robert Li(MSFT)
