I had that same problem last week. Put a new program cd in the drive and
window kept giving me the blue box with "insert disk in drive".

I went on the msn NG and one of the folks there told me that Norton AV
programs will sometimes cause this. I had an old Norton AV trial program
that had expired. I went into control panel remove and uninstalled the
Norton thing and the cd drive now works perfect.
Hope this helps.
