Hello,
My cd-rom and dvd-rom are not found. I uninstalled Nero software and got a corrupted registry message. I'm running Win XP sevice pack 3. Everything was running ok before I used xp's uninstall. Did this because I couldn't find Nero's uninstall.
How do I repair this?

How would I do a repair without the use of the cd-rom? I'm getting an error message in the device manager-"configuration info (in registry) is incomplete or damaged code 19." I uninstalled from the device manager and reinstalled-no difference. Will reinstalling a driver repair the registry?

Sorry about the double posting. Very glad someone removed the extra one.
