Very common issue within XP, Rob.
Suggestions:
Open My Computer, right click on the CD Rom in question,
Properties/Hardware/Properties/Volumes/Populate.
Other than that, this problem can occur if you are using Folder view in
Windows Explorer. The view may not be automatically refreshed in Folder view
in Windows Explorer.
To work around this problem, use either of the following methods:
Manually refresh Windows Explorer by pressing F5 or by clicking Refresh on
the View menu in Windows Explorer. And/or Do not use Folder view in Windows
Explorer.
