Hi
I've got a hp dvd writer 300n ATA and it hasnt worked since installing vista
(it doesnt show up in computer) I can get into properties of the drive and
I've got this error message:
Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration
information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and
to see if there is a solution available.

and when i click on check for solutions this comes up:
Description:
Windows was able to successfully install device driver software, but the
driver software encountered a problem when it tried to run. The problem code
is 19.

Files that help describe the problem:
C:\Users\christopher_2\AppData\Local\Temp\DMICFE9.tmp.log.xml
C:\Windows\inf\cdrom.inf

So can anyone help me with this i want to get this drive working?
thx
 
I had a problem with my Sony Dru510a DVD-RW.

Even Vista showd my the drive, it freez when I put a Disc inside.

I solved this proble, after I set up the bios to handle the IDE mode as
ATA-100.

Now it works fine.
