Click on C: drive to refresh right-hand pane, then click back on CDROM; Windows prompts to insert CD (it is important that you have Windows waiting like this at this point)

At this point Windows will 'wake up' and realise that a new disk is inserted.

Maybe the same procedure I use in OS/2 works for WinXP:
- qemu console: eject cdrom
- OS/2: try to access the cdrom -> error message
- qemu console: change cdrom /dev/cdrom (or somefile)
- OS/2: retry accessing the cdrom
That way, OS/2 will detect the disc change.
