    Hey everyone,

    I replaced an IDE CD-ROM with a DVD-ROM on an old PC.

    The thing is: The new DVD is recognized in Device Manager but it has a yellow error mark.
    It say's Windows has loaded the driver for the device, but cannot locate the hardware (code 41).

    I've tried switching IDE cable, tried another DVD-ROM,
    reinstalling the device, reinstall IDE controller,
    safe mode, and nothing works.

    When I tried to reinstall the SISIDE, had an error "cannot copy siside.exe".

    Window XP pro sp2

    Pentium 4 Celeron 1.7

    ASUS P4S533-mx

    2Gb RAM

    DVD - LG GH22NP20 ODD

    Any advice is appreciated,
    Thanx

    Removed the upper and lower values in the registry, and it works.
    Thank you :)!
