Drives are not accessible. Incorrect function.

[Uncle Buck]

I receive the following message when attempting to access
any of my drives, 'd:\ is not accessible - incorrect
function' This will occur on any drive except 'c'.
My 'd' drive is a cd-rom, 'e' drive is a dvd player
and 'f' drive is a usb connection for a camcorder. I have
read many of the posts regarding this error but no real
solution. Has anyone resolved this problem?

If you have installed an earlier version of Roxio Easy CD Creator, uninstall
it and apply this fix:

Hi,

It would help if you told uswhat you already tried so that we don't tell you
to repeat it. First, see if this helps:
http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpcd.htm, under section 8 - Problems - there is a
link to a patch that often resolves this problem with CD drives.

I browsed through the registry to see the changes from
the cdgone.reg fix. Should I see any additions to the
registry at the locations defined in cdgone.reg? I didn't
find any.

The "-" prefix actually removes the specified keys in registry. It does not
add any.
