| 1146732 | 2010-10-21 03:23:00 | The DVD drive does not show on Explorer and so I checked the Device Manager and it showed problems with the DVD Rom drive Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-111D Properties Location 0 (Primary ATA channel) Device Status A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32) Also in the same device location is another device showing this similar problem YTMP 81Y3KLQJ0 SCSI CdRom Device Properties Location Bus Number 0, Target ID 0, LUN 0 A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32) I checked the drivers for these devices and it said the installed drivers were ok. I restored an image backup of Drive C (Systems and Programs) with Seagate Disk Wizard hoping this would restore previous settings but the DVD drive was still not recognized. Would restoring the drive image from last November restore the necessary settings to make the drive operational or are there other solutions? (Athlon 4000, Windows XP Home Edition) |

| 1146734 | 2010-10-21 23:04:00 | What programs like Roxio / daemontools / any cd emulation programs are installed? Daemon Tools Lite has just been uninstalled. Otherwise I have Nero 6 and Burn4Free. The YTMP 81Y3KLQJ0 SCSI CdRom Device seems to be associated with ArcSoft and their Photostudio 5.5 for photo editing is installed. I have also been trying to update my Mirascan driver but this has not been installed yet. Would restoring a much earlier system drive image possibly get the DVD drive back? |

After a reboot the drive should install itself properly. |

| 1146737 | 2010-10-22 02:19:00 | Click on start and run, clear out anything in the box and type regedit, then click ok. Or if you are in vista or 7 simply type regedit into the search box on the start menu. Then navigate to the key i listed in the earlier post. | wratterus (105) | ||

| 1146740 | 2010-10-22 07:00:00 | I agree, it's a good way to learn the guts of your OS, but the OP did ask for simple. ;) | feersumendjinn (64) | ||
