Alienware M14X Optical Drive problem

Less than a month ago I received my alienware.

Today for the first time I insert a DVD in it...nothing happened.

I can't eject and the drive is not even showing up.

When I go to Device manager, I see the drive with this message

Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

I tried uninstalling reinstalling not working.

Any Help please?

Thank you so much

2nd option regedit fixed it... Just had to delete upperfilters and restart.

Thanks again
