Cannot find cd device

[Guest]

Device Mgr (XP home) shows "Windows successfuly loaded device driver but
cannot find the hardware device (code 41)" My LG DVD Rom drive was 5 years
old so I just installed a new Sony DVD/CD rewritable unit but am getting the
same message. The old unit worked fine two days ago. Would appreciate any
help!!!

Could be a "upper/ lower" filter problem.

After trying for a day and a half, I decided that this was beyond my
capabilities so I took the box to Circuit City. For $59. they did a complete
tune up and fixed the problem, which was in the registry. I had not fooled
with that portion so I don't know how it became corrupted. It could have
been a virus. They also cleaned out some adware and spyware and installed
the software for my new DVD/CD. It was well worth the money. Good luck.
