Windows XP pro, aopen 52x cdrw.

Like most times basically just eject cd rom and chuck a new one in. Doesn't read the new one. Still thinks it's the last one :/ Shows the title of the last one and folders blank when you open it.

Any idea?

It's the CD drive or IDE cable, 9 times out of 10 when this fault happens. The drive doesn't notify the PC when a new CD is inserted.

Try a new cable, but it may be the drive. How old is it?
