My cdrom is not working.
its messed up in the registry.
it was working properly last week n then i transferred some data from a friends hard disk n this problem started.
it shows the files but when u try to access them it just hangs n shuts the explorer.
i checked the hardware connections reconnected but it still persists,
i even cleared upper and lower filters in the registry as per microsofts troubleshooter.
Plz help me!:(

Try something simple; go to Device manager right click you CD drive and select uninstall.
Then go to IDE controllers and uninstall all related sections i.e. primary then secondary, then your dual channel controller.
The system will ask you to reboot go ahead and do so after your system restarted it will reinstall all you IDE controllers and then your CD drive.

See if this will help.

It generally did the trick for me after loosing the drive altogether.
