Scarecrow Man Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 2 drives,Hitachi DVD-ROM GD-2500Matshita CD-RW CW-7585Neither of them are working in windows. The bios detects them fine, displays the correct name etc.Device Manager recognizes (and installs if uninstalled) the drives, but has the following error:"Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupt of missing. (Code 39)Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device."Problem is, you do the troubleshooter, it tells you to remove and re-install, tell it that doesn't work and it says go get help elsewhere.I've tried numerous drivers from driverguide.com but nothing seems to install properly.Also strange, both drives are using the same files (cdrom.sys, redbook.sys and storprop.dll)My assumption is that these files need to be replaced or updated.Any input is appreciated.Thanks!

Scarecrow Man Posted October 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Pops, I love you!deleting the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters in the reg keys specified in your links worked like a charm! :DThanks a bunch!!! B)EDIT: I should also add, there are MANY keys with the same same (the numbers inside the {}) Make sure you look at the first value which specifies what the device is (USB, Disk Drive, CD-ROM, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subhash Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 :lol: Wow great!!Hey there, I had the same problem with the Hitachi DVD-romGD-S200, and deleting the upperfile was allready enough to let it work! And the funny thing is that i didn't had any experience with the Register Editor. The only thing I knew was how to get there (Start/Run.../regedit.exe). Then it was just following the steps. Just a tip for other people who had the same problem. Always copy the map to another drive, which you want to delete, for back-up/ So that when anything goes wrong, you can put it back there. Just ones more: Thanks Pops :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
