DVD/CD-RW Drivers Virus ??

[cansusa]

Hello,

For some unexplained reason my DVD/CD-RW device driver has disappeared, and my driver for my USB DVD burner is also gone. I ran several spyware and scans and nothing other than cookies showed up. I ran several Norton AntiVirus scans and nothing shows up.

I am running XP Home on a Toshiba Satellite M35X-S329 laptop. These disapearing drivers just happened a few days ago, and I don't remeber doing anything unusal.

Would you please check my log to see if I have virus. I have not yet reloaded the lost drivers.

Thanks, Alan

Power spikes/brownouts, storms, lots of things can affect a computer, as I'm sure you know.

Nothing in that log. Do you have issues in your Device Manager?

Run this online scan to see if anything lurks.

Establish an internet connection & perform an online scan with Internet Explorer at Kaspersky Online Scanner

Answer Yes, when prompted to install an ActiveX component.

• The program will then begin downloading the latest definition files.
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
• Locate the Scan Settings button & configure to:
  • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    • Extended
  • Scan Options:
    • Scan Archives
    • Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK & have it scan My Computer
• Once the scan is complete, it will display if your system has been infected. It does not provide an option to clean/disinfect. We only require a report from it.
• Click the Save as Text button to save the file to your desktop so that you may post it in your next reply

* Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan

If it comes up clean, reinstall your devices and drivers.

Thank you for your help. I ran the extended Kaspersky virus scan and it came up clean.

BTW, I seen on this forum that I can get training on understanding the HJT log files, but I can't seem to find where to register. If you can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Thanks again...Alan

Problem resolved by registry repair right?

You can join with us against the malware fight here. Make sure you are committed enough to join though...as you will read in that topic.

If your CD/DVD Drives won't appear in your list of drives, you can probably correct this as follows:

Open regedit. Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

Export the key for backup. Delete any value named "UpperFilters" or "LowerFilters" (Only exact match!). Repeat for every ControlSet???. Reboot.

Explanation: Drivers for devices are modularized. It wouldn't make sense for them not to be, as, for example, filesystem drivers would have to know how to talk to every possible type of hard drive. Part of this modularization is called the device stack. The IO Manager interfaces with the top driver on the stack, and the bottom driver on the stack interfaces with the physical hardware.

The keys under the Class key each specify a hardware type. When hardware of that type is installed, the device-specific driver for the given device type is loaded and used. To modify that drivers behavior, a second driver--called a filter driver--can specify that it wishes to be above or below the device-specific driver. The UpperFilters and LowerFilters keys specify the name(s) of the filter driver(s). Some programs that install filter drivers are: Packet-writing support, such as InCD; iTunes.

If one of the drivers referenced in these keys cannot be found (under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services), loading the driver for the device fails.

Alternatively, you can try this fix from the Doug Knox site:

Thanks, repairing the registry allowed me to see my CD/DVD drive....Alan
