I'm having a problem, still, reading a CD in Windows XP.
I upgraded to XP from ME, and now I can't get anything to
pull up from the CD with all my photos on it. It shows it
as empty. My computer is a HP Pavilion xt926. I've
already tried downloading a Adaptec update but it didn't
work. ANy ideas?? Thanks!

Downloading Adaptec UDF reader is a good idea. However, when you upgrade
from ME to XP you should upgrade the driver for the CD drive so it is
compatible with XP.
Open My Computer and look under Devices with removable storage. Your CD
drive will be listed there.
Right click on it and click on Properties. A window will open. Click on the
Hardware tab and the click on the CD drive listed there below your hard
drive.
Look at the message "Device status". Do you get the message that the device
is working properly or some other message. You can also use the Troubleshoot
button there for help in getting this drive working properly. My best guess
is you need to go to the Internet site of the manufacturer and download and
install the appropriate driver for XP.
