| Windows Mobile Expert Rep Power: 5 ![]() | Re: "Optiarc DVD RW AD-5530A ATA Deivce" Wont work I found the solution at DRIVER NEEDED: Sony Electronics Optiarc DVD RW AD 5530A ATI Device (Windows Vista x64) - DriverGuide Support Forums see posting by JerryK (Thx a million, it works !) "To solve the issue, you have to edit the Windows Registry: Click Start, then Run, type REGEDT32 and click OK. Locate and then remove the following registry values: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlCl ***{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}LowerFilters HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlCl ***{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}UpperFilters Close Registry Editor. Reboot the system for the changes to take effect. Note: Some programs are unable to detect the CD/DVD drive after these steps. To solve this, simply re-install the program in question, eg: usually your recording software. Also, in few instances the order in which the programs are (re-)installed can make a difference. And here's another method that will do this automatically for you if you're afraid to edit the registry manually." |
