i had the exact same problem when i installed sp1, but mine was only with
dvd movies, cd's were fine.
i reinstalled windows to solve other problems and it also fixed this thing
by it self. so reinstall windows including sp1 after you do a back up of
your files and folders, if you like. hope i could help you.
