Burning Live CD

[Allen Meyers]

In an effort to make burning a live CD a reality going to give this one more
shot.
1. It does not recognize that there is a blank CD inserted
2. It will play both a music CD as well as a data (computer based learning
CD)
In desperation I went to live chat on HP support and was fortunate enough to
get someone who understood English and was not outsourced to India.
What follows good bad or indifferent is what he outlined I do and what I did
(It still does not recognize blank media.
This exchange I am about to relate obviously will only be understood by the
really experienced user.  I suredo not understand what I did.* I do know it
helped absolutely nothing*
*I cannot afford a new PC, but would it help to purchase an external device
as I do insist on being able to burn live CD or my fun in Linux will come to
an end.*
I reset BIOS, reinstall cd/dvd drivers for checking the issue. All that was
really done here was the assurance that yes was highlighted to assure I was
back to my default BIOS settings.

Went to run typed in devmgmt.msc
Right click on CD/DVD drive icon listed under "CD-Rom/DVD-Rom" and select
"Un-install".Once the device is un-installed it may prompt you to restart
the notebook PC but I recomment not to restart the notebook PC and continue
performing the below steps:
Start Registry Editor Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click
OK. Registry Editor starts.  Delete the Upper Filters registry entry

1. In Registry Editor, expand My Computer, and then expand
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
2. Expand SYSTEM, and then expand Current Control Set.
3. Expand Control, and then expand Class.
4. Under Class, click {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}.
5. In the right pane (topic area), click Upper Filters.
Note An Upper Filters.bak registry entry may also appear. To delete the
UpperFilters registry entry, you must click Upper Filters and not Upper
Filters.bak.
6. On the Edit menu, click Delete.

7. When you receive the following message, click Yes to confirm the deletion
of the Upper  Filters registry entry:
Are you sure you want to delete this value?

The Upper Filters registry entry is removed from the
{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} registry subkey.
Note Do not exit Registry Editor. You must have this program for the next
step.
Step 3: Delete the Lower Filters registry entry
1. In Registry Editor, expand My Computer, and then expand
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
2. Expand SYSTEM, and then expand Current ControlSet.
3. Expand Control, and then expand Class.
4. Under Class, click {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}.
5. In the right pane (topic area), click Lower Filters.

LowerFilters registry entry, you must click LowerFilters and not Lower
Filters.bak.
