If I have a data CD loaded and I look at 'My Computer' I can see the CD and all the folder/files on it. However if I now eject the CD and load a different one it does not recognise I have changed it and still shows the file structure of the previous CD. I though I could 'refresh' the structure but this still doesn't work it still shows the old CD structure. How can I get it to show me the folders and files on the new CD I've just put in the drive?
At the moment I have to reboot!!!!!!! aarghh

Perhaps try right clicking on your drive and select Properties, then click on the AutoPlay tab. Look at the settings and try changing them.

Saying press F5 'refresh' means you didn't read the original problem. The 'refresh' does not work THIS IS THE PROBLEM.
Any other bright ideas out there?
