Until recently Windows Explorer has shown the title of a CD inserted
into either the CD Rewriter or the DVD reader drive on my PC. Since
about two weeks ago, XP does not react at all to the insertion of a disk
until I click on the relevant drive letter in the left pane of Explorer.
It then shows the content of the disk but still does not show the disk
title info. In addition Autorun no longer operates even though it is
enabled.

Running XP Home, Svc Pack 2, fully updated with automatic updates.
CD Writer is Aopen 52x32x52 DVD Reader is Aopen DVD ROM

Grateful for any help anyone can offer.
