CD Rom not recognized

VS 2005 R2 - I started noticing the CD/DVD drive is not recognizing when new
disks are put in. I need t switch to no media and back to physical cd/dvd
drive before the new dvd will be read. Also, if I remove the dvd and insert
a new one, the old folder structure is still shown within windows explorer.

Any idea on how to get the guest os's to recognize the new dvd?

TIA
Mark

Just by what you're doing. You need to release the old disk, then
capture the new one. The VS interface doesn't really have an
autodetection ability for physical disks.

Steve -

Thanks. Has this always been the case? I always remember putting in a
cd/dvd and being able to access it directly or if autorun/play was on, that
would be executed.

hmmm, as I recall, this was always the case with VS, maybe it just
works on some systems, but I've always had to do the capture/uncapture
thing manually but I rarely use physical discs with VMs.
