My computer had bought for a year. It had DVD/CD drive,
I dont know what my children were doing,but now its
gone.I went to device manager, tried to do the
troubleshoot, I received a message: "Window successfully
loaded the device driver for this hardware, but can not
find the hardware device(code 41)" . Please help me to
fix it. Thanks a lot.
 
Goto http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpcd.php#problems
See the second "problem" (read the caveats)
Run the provided registry patch

That should fix your problem (basically, a filter driver is missing or
non-operational, the registry patch will delete the filter drivers
references for your cdrom(s))


Basically, the reg file from above carries out the steps displayed at this
