Re: Lost my CD/RW and DVD Drive at same time



When I go into reg edit and try to remove the key specified - it gives me
this message:

Cannot delete 4D36E965-E325-11­CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 : error in deleting key

I went into advance setup and I have full permission as administrator but it
is not allowing me to select the delete option.

Warning! This is now breaching my know how but if I have specifics in
writing I will make sure not to mess it up - if I do, it's my own fault....

Thanks again for the immediate response.

To resolve your issue, follow these steps:

1. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
[Start > Run and type: REGEDIT , and hit enter]

2. Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11­CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

3. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.

4. Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11­CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

5. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.

6. Quit Registry Editor.NOTE: After you remove the Upperfilters value and the Lowerfilters value,
if you notice lost functionality in a particular program, such as CD recording software, you may need
to reinstall that software. If the problem recurs, consult with the software vendor for assistance.

7. Restart your computer.
