Hi,
When I place a CD/DVD in my Drive, it is not beig recognized.
That CD struggles sometime making some noise in the Drive and there
after it shows that D Drive is having 0 bytes. I had deleted it from
the Device Manager and even after that it's creating the same
problem. CAn some one help me out in this regards
Deepak
 
What type CD/DVD are you using, blank media, commercial media, data CD's,
Music CD's, DVD movie's, etc..?

Might check the Upper & Lower filters for the optical drives..? The easiest
way to check without going into the registry, would be to go to Device
Manager, open DVD/CD-ROM drives, right click one of your optical drives,
select properties from the menu, Details tab, you should see "Device Instance
Id" and a drop down arrow (v), click it, move the mouse pointer down the list
to highlight Device Upper filters and click it, do the same for the Device
Lower filters, Class Upper & Lower filters as well to see and take note of
their contents.. Also, there should be just 4 MS signed drivers in the
Drivers tab (cdrom.sys, imapi.sys, redbook.sys, storprop.dll), driver details
button, driver files details window, may want to check, your call..
What other drivers do you see..?
Cheers
