Default CD/DVD Rom Disappears?

Weird problem here. I pulled a DVD Rom from one Gateway and put it in this
Gateway (P4 1.4, 768mb, XP home). Now I know it worked a few weeks ago
because I ripped a bunch of my CDs right before Christmas. Well I just went
to rip a new one and here's what happens: On boot up everything is fine. I
look in My Computer and the DVD Drive (F Drive) is there. In System Hardware
it's listed, no errors. But as soon as I put an audio CD in it starts to
read it and disappears from My Computer and System. I have to reboot to get
it to come back. It'll read data CDs fine, just no audio.

In my system log the error says: "The device 'COMPAQ DVD-ROM GD-8000'
(IDE\CdRomCOMPAQ_DVD-ROM_GD-8000__________________0011____\5&2ba5797f&1&0.1.0)
disappeared from the system without first being prepared for removal."

Any ideas?
