    My CD Drive is no longer listed under My Computer for some reason. Looking at it in device manager shows a Code 19 error.

    I know what you're going to say (delete upperfilters and lowerfilters) but those values aren't there. I've tried Microsoft's FixIt aswell and while it says solved it surely isn't.

    Additional information:
    - Upgraded to Windows8, only noticed it after upgrade
    - Experimented with virtual CD tools, none worked for reason

    I really did not know but I stumbled across several threads all dealing with problems on a Toshiba so it was worth mentioning.
    I'm glad you are back in business. Thanks for letting us know it worked.
