Download the Drive association fix from *www.dougknox.com/xp/fileassoc/xp_drive_association_fix.zip - unzip it and merge the reg file with registry... It should work now...

Another solution.
Right click the drive and click open in the menu.
It should open.
Now there will be a hidden file named autorun.inf.
Delete it. All things should be fine.
(If there really is a autorun.inf file chances are that your computer is infected with a Virus. Clean it).

(Offtopic : Geez I am writing this same solution for the third time this this day. Do everyone getting same kinda problems?.)
