My system has no problem detecting the cdrw and dvd-rom when I first boot up , but after I play a DVD and/or a disk or two and go back and look at the drives my system is calling them both just cd-rom drives , not the proper CDRW and DVD drive, also the Widows XP properties for CDRW and DVD-Rom are gone. What could be happening?

btw: Everything is up to date including Windows XP and the Via drivers. System is A7V266 , Athlon 1600+, Win XP.
