Did you rececntly uninstall some cdwriting software, eg Nero or Roxio? If so, you will need to do some registry editing and remove the \"LowerFilter\"key under cdrom.

Thanks for the answer, no cd writeing software installed or ever for that matter. Upgraded from the network to XP and still have the same problem.
