Acer DVD/CD not there
Solved/Closed
Hello,
I just bought an Acer computer with Vista self extracting files. Set it up last night but it doesn't see the DVD/CD-ROM. There is no drive letter for it and no CD devices shown in the device listing.
I am new to Vista and have no idea how to have it recognize this drive. It does see the USB and memory card drives, but nothing for the CD.
The CD does work i.e. has showing power to it. Because I have no disk (self extract) I can't just re-install.
Thanks

Hi,
The whole thing looks like this:
Hope, it will work!
- Start the Run Command Prompt
- Type in regedit without the parenthesis then click OK.
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CURRENT CONTROL SET > CONTROL > CLASS.
- Then find
4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318
The whole thing looks like this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
- Then delete the upper and lower filters.
Hope, it will work!
