If you right click the drive letter for that drive and click Eject Does the drive door open  ?
and on Properties is auto play active for that drive ? if not set it to Music as this is usually the normal setting.

Sorry to hear about this edam. Was your upgrade to W7 off the net or, did you buy it from the box? If from the net, it may not have downloaded all the necessary files you'd need for all the upgrades/drivers to work.
