VM not Seeing DVD RW Drive

VMware 2.0.2

Windows 7

 

I've attached the vmware settings box for the drive and the win7 properties tab for the drive. This worked fine yesterday. I confirmed in the host machine that the disc in the drive is fine. I also rebooted the host machine with the disc in the drive, and it booted up into the Ubuntu install which is on the disc.

 

I've tried playing with the settings. Access directly or ATA emulation, IDE 1, Device 0, or IDE 0, Device 0 but nothing seems to work. When the VM is running, the device shows as connected and there is the option to disconnect under the Devices tab on the console. I also successfully mounted the drive in another VM, Centos 6.0.4, and could view the dir/files on it. Anything else to check/configure? Thanks.
