I agree that more infos would be helpful
Now, do you mean, perhaps, .. that, when you change discs, the icon does not change accordingly (like, if you put a game disc in, it should change to the game icon, if you put a photoshop disk in, it should change to the photoshop icon, etc...).
... and that the 'name' - correctly called a volume label, does also not update properly to match the contents of the disk ...
and this 'pop up box' I assume you're referring to Windows Auto-run pop-up, that says 'disk detected, what should I do with it blah blah'...
??
OK, now ...
the auto-run I've no clue on, as I always turn that shit off ...
but, the icon and volume label updating ..
I've not seen this problem recently, but I DO remember having such problems once upon a time, on an older system, running xp pro, but I think before the time of the sp1 and sp2.
not sure if the service pack fixed it, or if it was a problem of the drive/drivers.
anyways, that's all I can add atm, but I'm interesting to see what the solution turns out to be, because as I said, I had that problem and it always buggered me, and I never figured it out.
