Have you tried something like:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <winbase.h>
#include <mntent.h>

main () {
        int ii;

for (ii = 0; ii < 26; ii++) {

                char tmp[32];
                int type;

        (void)sprintf (tmp, "%c:\\", ii + 'A');
        type = GetDriveType (tmp);
        if (type == DRIVE_CDROM) {
                (void)printf ("%s\n", tmp);
        }
}

}
