When I put a CD in my CD drive it doesn't update in My Computer.

This causes problems with games that require the CD to run, because the programs don't recognise the CD as being present.
I can open the CD in explorer and browse the files, but in order to go from one game to another I have to restart my computer with the required CD in the drive.

I'm using Windows XP, Norton Antivirus and a generic CD drive.

Any suggestions about what's going on and how to fix this.

I am looking at that barebone computer, and I'm not sure about what the RAM specification it takes, other than DDR2 184pin.

I'm looking for a 512mb stick to go into it, so can anyone give me any ideas as to what I'm looking for?

The one at the back. I was thinking if covering it up so dust won't get in. Is it important to leave it uncovered?
