Hi,

Are you using wine or is this a windows question ?

On windows open command.com and type automount if it says 'disabled'
type 'automount enable'

On wine the situation is more complex, using wine config you can set a
file path to a iso image as the cd rom (or under the advanced settings
point it at the real device.
