Check that CD-ROM is properly fit with wires in mobo also open device manager and click action tab and choose "Scan for hardware changes" this will install lost CD-ROM Drivers.

Tell me if this helps you !

Well ... something messed up the driver inf file in XP ... maybe something 98 did ... u can try to manually add the CDROM and check ..

Also .. i'd prefer u to get a firmware update for the CDROM .. as it sounds it might be quite old ...
