itunes will not burn a cd

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

when i try to start itunes, i receive a warning..."the registry used by the
itunes drivers for importing and burning cds and dvds are missing. this can
happen as a result of installing other cd burning software. please reinstall
itunes." when i reinstall itunes, i get the same message and i can no longer
burn a cd from itunes because it says disc not found. something is screwed up
with my d and e drives but my system say that the drives are working
properly. does anyone know how to fix this. thanks
