Default Win XP Pro doesn\'t see CD Drives

I have 2 CD drives in my machine, one is a regular read-only drive while the other is a CD R/W.

I have not needed to use either of them in a few weeks, and now my pc doesn't see them at all. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

If I shut down, unplug these drives, reboot, shutdown, attach them again, and reboot, sometimes (20%) they are there, usually not...

When they are visible, I frequently get an 'Unsafe Removal of Device' error window when accessing them. Then they disappear again. This routine sucks. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I've done quite a few google searches, but no real good results. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
