When I change discs (DVD or CD), the explorer is not refreshing the display.
Selecting 'View/Refresh' has no effect. I eject the CD and put it back in
with no effect. The explorer keeps displaying the directory of the disc
that was in previously. I have to reboot to clear the problem, but it
happens again shortly. Any ideas would be appreciated.

It may be a fouled up autoplay setting, so that the autoinsert
notification is being lost. Microsoft people have written an unofficial
fix up tool for Autoplay. Without great confidence, I suggest you try
it - it is not on a MSoft site, but can be downloaded from
