When I put a CD in the CD drive and try to see what is on the CD drive,no
information is shown.l
The drive that is having this problem is running Windows XP Pro. I have
removable hard drives and I replace the XP drive with a dirve running Win
2000 and all information is seen.
 
I am not an expert but when this happened to me it was caused by a piece of
software that was installed with Nero, called InCD. When I removed it all
was well. It is supposed to be fixed in recent versions but if you are using
it try uninstalling InCD to see what happens.

Thanks for the ideas Noel. Nero InCD was on my system and I removed it, but
the problem remains.
I don't know if this related but when I insert a music CD, no information is
seen on the CD in My computer, but I can listen to the CD with Media Player.
Is there a connection or are these seperate issues?
 
I had trouble like this when I installed the Roxio plug in for Audible.
Ultimately, I uninstalled the plug in and reinstalled it, and all worked
fine. I don't know if this would work with InCD, but it might be worth a
try.
 
Max,

I would have thought that if InCD was causing your problem removing it would
have solved it.

Here is one other idea:

Start in safe mode, then uninstall the CD/DVD drives in Device Manger, then
reboot normally.

Hope this helps - it took me three weeks to find my solution!
