I've seen several OEMs like Dell report on their web sites that two =

Okay, one down partially at least -- turning off autorun stops the CD =
names
from updating in explorer on a virgin, nothing extra installed PC. =
But that
is not the only thing that stops it unfortunately, on a PC with 2 CDRW
drives, it still doesn't update the CD names even with autorun turned =
on and
functioning. I suspect another autorun type setting somewhere...

Something very strange is going on if you delete the file from =
Explorer
and it doesn't disappear. Try Shift+Del or Shift+Click on Delete menu =
item
if you aren't doing so already. With shift the files are deleted =
instead of
moved to the recycle bin.

System(s).

No, I didn't say I see it all the time, just a LOT. I don't know =
what
causes it.

I don't have a problem on Win9x machines this way, it sends the
notifications just fine.
> You have no CD-ROM software?
Some of the PC's yes, some no, and not the same version on any.
>These are CD-ROMs or CD-R/W?>
Both, but mostly CDRW. Even have a DVD and a DVDRW.
>If the latter, don't you have software to burn CDs?
On the ones with rw, yes, but none of them have that active crud =
(tray
icon
that asks you what to do when you put in a blank CD) or the direct =
cd type
stuff.

In box on all but one PC. (newer video card than what's in the box =
on my
main PC at home.) Supposedly certified though.

If I knew I'd tell you why. (and I doubt EVERYONE sees title =

don't have that strange a config.)

That's kind of part of the symptom I'm seeing, except you get an =

you double click on them. (file not found)

Windows 200 Server, Snap server, and our AS/400, they all do it.

That's not what i was describing -- you can move these icons =
that you
just
deleted, you can try to delete them again 9and you get a file =
not
found
error) and as for the network drives that exhibit the same =
behavior,
they

net use shows them. As for the cdrom's never changing the disk =

when
you change the CD, you tell me. (probably something to do with =
autorun
not
turned on, but it should update when accessing the CD.)
And also, this beahovior is exactly the same on all my PC's =

Why should there be artifacts? The symptoms described were =
