Problem is Fixed. I don't know how but it fixed itself. A couple of days ago I put an audio CD in the drive and it opened up windows media and played the disc. since then I have used both drives several times without any problems. Thank you all for your input. Just a thought though, most of your...

I have tried the autofix program and it can't find a problem with autoplay. I don't think autoplay is the problem anyway as if I had booted with a disk in drive as stated in last post then autoplay works fine from that point on. When the drives are not working: when putting a disk in it appears...
