I am no computer rookie, but this one has me stumped.

Now I am getting two error messages:

"Administrator has prohibited access to CD/DVD Rom Drives" and
"Administrator has prohibited access to USB/1394 mass storage devices."

Now, neither my Philips DROM 6216 nor my TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552D are
accessible in My Computer. In Device Manager, both say they are working.

Also, my external Iomega USB hard drive backup is not accessble.

I have tried EVERYTHING. Install/uninstall, you name it. Nothing works.

I suspect a registry hack would do it, but I don't know what it would be.

HELP!

Thanks,

It maybe a program you recently installed, however, try a restore to a
previous time where things worked.
