I was going to delete The Upper & Lower Filters from the registry under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} I only saw LowerFilters

UpperFilters is present below in {4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Should I proceed with deleting the LowerFilters from :
4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318

NMICRO

Follow the instructions given here (Method 2):

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314060

In
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318},
note that the Key is identified in the left-hand pane of Registry Editor.
The Values for that key are seen in the right-hand pane. The items
LowerFilters and UpperFilters are the Values that you want to select and
delete. You can right-click on those two values to do that. They will be
in the same key. If you only see one of those two values, then just delete
the one.

Since {4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} is not mentioned, do NOT delete
Values in that key.

If you want to back up the key before you make a change, highlight the key,
and choose File from the menu, and then choose Export. Name it GoBack.reg.
Hopefully, though, you won't have to use your backup, and things will work
out. Should you want to undo your changes, just click on GoBack.reg.
