Extra CD Rom

J

John Johnson

Running XP Pro and 2ghz machine.

Just noticed I have two CD/DVD roms listed. I only have one a
Toshiba.
But a AXV CD SCSI drive is listed. I took it out in Device Manager
but it comes back in.
I found an extra drive listed in the Registry and deleted that and
then search for the AXV drive in the Registry and found a number of
entrees. Deleted them all but one which would not delete.
So no matter what I do the drive keeps on popping back up.

Have no idea how it got there in the first place. Have no SCSI cards.

How can I get rid of it.

You obviously have Alcohol 120% installed
(http://www.alcohol-software.com/). It creates a virtual drive that
appears in the device manager.
