SONY CD-RW CRX230EE Drivers Not Installing

[Guest]

Hi ,
I have P4 WIndowsXP SP1 PC with SONY CRX230EE CD RW drive, the Drive was
working fine, then all of a sudden it is not listed in Drive List,
IN the Device Manager, The DC-RW is listed with a Exclamation Mark, and
every effort to update or reinstall drivers have failed.
What I DID..? Uninstalled the CD Drive, Uninstalled the NERO6, and removed
the Upperfilter and Lowerfilters from the Registry as advised by the
Microsoft Knowledgebase Article, and rebooted the PC, the PC detected and
installed the Drive, and Msged that the PC Must be restarted for the Device
to Work properly. And when I restarted the PC, the CD-RW Drive again
disappeared, and shows with a Exclaimation mark again in Device Manager.
AT Sony no Driver, Update or Anything is available for CRX 230EE ( 230E
Doesn't work with this model).

Now, I hope someone here could help me out..( as usual.. )
Thanx Guys and Gals of course..atleast you read my problem

Waiting..

SAT

Open the Device Manager, scroll down to the
"IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, click the "+",
then right-click on "Secondary IDE Channel"
and select "Uninstall", then restart your computer.

Uninstall both Secondary IDE Channels, then reboot.
Windows XP will reinstall one that works with your
CD-RW drive.
