I wasn't aware of this drive specific behavior in XP but perhaps you could do this:
Go into file types where it assigns the proggie to call up when you click on a file type and delete the file type for the one on your DVD. Then go to your DVD and click on a file and when it asks you for what program to associate with this file type point it to your program your trying to get it running with.
Sounds like you may also have two programs competing for the same file type.
