New Won't work
CD Changers aren't popular in the desktop market. As I mentioned recently in another thread, the few that were on the market withered when Windows kept trying to auto-run every disk it cycled through. Without registry hacks, there is no way of disabling auto-play on later WinOS's. So the chagers couldn't check disk title info (ie: search for the right disk) without playing whatever was on the first one it hit.

New Auto insert notification?
There is a checkbox on the device "Settings" tab that can be turned off from the Device Manager. I think that this is in 2000 and XP as well. Auto insert notification. If turned off, it doesn't seem to search my CD drive when I insert a CD. Of course I also have Autoplay disabled, my Nero software did it for me as soon as I installed it for my CD Burner that it came with.

New Just double-checked
There is no way to disable it from the settings tab from device manager. Maybe some CD drives ship with other drivers that would add this, but it's not an option on mine.

New Sorry I thought all drivers were equal?
Every CD drive that I checked had this checkbox. I am sorry to hear that yours does not.
