I had a similar problem immediately after upgrading to XP (before loading
any app software), sub directories on the XP CD looked empty.  When I booted
back to 98 (dual boot system) the CD sub-directories contained data.
I finally isolated the problem.  I had a secondary device on the same IDE
controller that the CD drive is the master on.  Disconnecting this secondary
device made the CD contents reappear.
