Keyboard shortcut to initiate DVD drive to recognise DVD

[UncleScooby]

WIN 2K

When I load up a DVD into my drive my DVD player (POWERDVD)
automatically starts and within a few seconds I'll get the menu of the DVD title. All well and good.

If I close the DVD player but want to play the same DVD again can I press a keyboard shortcut to initiate the DVD drive to recognise the DVD again. E.G the equivalent to ejecting and reinserting the DVD into the drive.

A simple but useful request, any info appreciated,

sure, create a shortcut to the drive letter, right click on the shortcut and in the shortcut key option assign a shortcut in the space provided. every time you press it the default action (the one bolded when you right click on it) will be run.
