Windows explorer doesnWindows Xp Doesn't Recognize Your Computer's Dvd-rom Or Cd-rom?

I have a similar problem except that my windows xp recognizes my dvd rom drives.. My problem is that windows explorer doesn't recognize that there's a blu-ray disc loaded in my Pioneer blu-ray reader.If I put in a regular dvd or cd, windows explorer would recognize and show the disc title.[ie. BOLT:(E)]. But, when I put a blu-ray disc in my drive, the dvd ram drive changes to cd drive and nothing happens. Although, Win dvd  recognizes there's a disc in the drive and it would play it. I would greatly appreciate any help you could render, thanks !

Odds are that there is something wrong with the CD-rom drive itself or there could be a connection issue, or maybe you don't have the proper codecs needed to run the blu-ray CD. So I would check out all those reasons that could be causing the CD-ROM to not read the file and if isn't any of those problems then you may want to replace it for a working one.
