You probably already either got this working or upgraded by now, but in case I can help... All that makes sense, when you open those things, windows looks at the CD burner to check to see if there is any type of file on that cd, if the cd has music files it will show that icon, not only that it looks for the name of the CD on the cd, meaning that it has to access the CD, if your using a slow interface between the computer and the CD burner, that would slow it all down while it waits for the information from the cd it needs. Does it connect through USB or serial? you probably said, but I missed it. I'm not quite sure what would help you prevent this problem, its as simple as this, the connection is slow, 98 doesn't expect a fast connection, XP does. I'm not sure if there is some setting you can change that will prevent XP from previewing the CD...but if you can find something, you should be golden, if not, you just have to deal with the lag, or upgrade, or just go back to 98...
