Uninstall it in device manager, reinstall it. Update the driver. Check the autoplay settings haven't been changed by anything. Restore the system to a point where it was working ok.
One or more of the above may fix it. System restore as last resort. If you've installed any software recently, check that isn't interfering with it.
