Is it just that CD? Does it happen with other data CD's and audio CD's? You are going to have to check your autoplay settings as it sounds like it is a problem with that.

Does it register that you put a new CD in? Sometimes you might have to refresh the CD-ROM drive.

Try disabling autoplay and then re-enabling.

I know in my old computer I had to do a software eject by right clicking on the drive and hitting eject, whether there was a CD in there or not.
