DVD Player Stopped Working
Pass this on to others, it may help. It seems that a driver update has added either an upper or lower filter for the DVD player registry in the system registry. I found that my DVD player didn't show up at all in the explorer, and when I went to burn a DVD/CD it gave me a message that the media wasn't found. Here is the fix I found after waisting my time trying to remedy the problem. Save a copy of your registry before editing it. Go to the following location in your registry (regedit): HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Cl ass\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} Click on {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} to highlight it and delete the upper or lower filters. (There may only be one of the filters) Exit the editor and restart your system. this may happen a second or third time or until Microsoft catches up I hope this helps and prevents others from waisting thier time! -- Avandersluis Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
