How many of you think that we should have to go through the registry editor
process every time we need to use our CD/DVD drives? I'm having to do it
every 2 or 3 days. I dream of the days when I was using XP and autorun would
actually work on my computer and I could actually burn and read CD's without
jumping through all these hoops.

I am a very dissatisfied with my new computer, and I it's not a problem with
dell, it's a problem with Vista. When is microsoft going to address this
problem? From the threads I see here, it's been going on since Vista came
onto the scene.

I am sensing everyone's frustration with this problem---it's such a waste of
valuable time.

Come on, Microsoft, and step up to the plate, do what is right, and fix this
problem as soon as possible. You're going to lose customers (if you haven't
already) because of Vista. You're losing me the next time I need to get a
computer if this doesn't get resolved very soon.

Thank you for letting me vent. Anybody else want a turn?

Hi,

The problem occurs because the values are replaced by third party burning
software. What burning programs were installed on your system by the vendor?

I'm gonna keep this post for further use when someone comes up with a
fix that doesn't point to Vista.

Thanks, Nonny.

When it first happened, I took all the programs off my computer to see if
they were interfering with the CD/DVD drive, but that wasn't the problem.
I'm hoping that Rick is onto something with his response above.

Rick,

It would be so wonderful to solve this problem once and for all. The two
burning programs installed on my computer are Dell Media Direct and Windows
Media Center.

I only need one, so if uninstalling one would solve the problem, I would be
very interested.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Uninstall the Dell software if you aren't using it, see how it goes. The
Windows Media Center is not removable.
