The Auto Insert is ok under XP, it was only 98 and ME that it gave problems.
The only thing I can say you should try is update the ASPI drivers, try both solutions to see if either will work. This is located at:

The only other thing that I know that might cause this is if your drivers for your motherboard IDE controllers aren't updated. You will need to contact your computer manufacturer to find the brand of Motherboard that is installed in your computer. Once you find this out you will need to get the latest chipset drivers for it to see if that will fix it.
