Need serious help !! cd/dvd not working
Some how my Windows xp must have got corrupted. I need to do a repair but My cd/dvd combo drive doesn't work to load the operating disc. In device manager it shows a problem upon trying to reinstall it it says the driver is missing or corrupt code 39. I tried using an external cd/dvd drive but it could'nt load drivers for this either.In the bios it is listed in the first screen but it will not boot to it. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated ! Thanks for your time

Open regedit and go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Now delete the keys:
LowerFilters and UpperFilters in the right pane.
NB only one key may be present but still delete it.
Now reboot and your optical drive should function again.
