Lost my CD devices

[Klijs]

Hi,
I am expirencing a somewhat strange difficulty with my windows lately. The
fast is that when i open "my computer" i can't see nor open the dvd drives.

I've tried to turn them off in the "device manager" and turned them back on
again but that did not work. I've also tried to fill in the path in the
adress bar but that did not work either.

I am not looking forward to have to reinstall my PC or using a system
restore point. Please help me find an easy solution.

Thanks,
Klaas-Thijs Postma

Removing the upper and lower filters sometimes helps. Ignore the fact that it
says 'updated to Vista'. Have a look here

How can i remove the filters you suggested to remove?
also the link you provided did not work.

Try it again... it works fine.
