The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

"No compatible CD recorder found" - Lost burning capabilities

Asked by chermesh in Microsoft Hardware

Tags: burn, cd, dvd

Hi,
My system (Lenovo M55e desktop, WinXP Pro (SP3)) lost its burning capabilities both for its permanently DVD drive and my USB connected DVD drive.
I checked the net for solutions, but all answers (HD failure, obselete software, cable connections) seem to be irrelevant. The hardware related causes my explain a single drive problem, but not my two drive system.
I'm not sure what events preceding the appearance of the problem are relevant, but let me mention two:
1. A trojan attack which required the use of ComboFix and the use of online BitDefender checkout.
2. My efforts to raise security by disabling autorun capabilities. by using the following registry change:
"REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\IniFileMapping\Autorun.inf]
@="@SYS:DoesNotExist""
The change was suggested in the following link:
http://www.windowssecrets.com/comp/071108#story1

I've uninstalled my DVD drive and let the system reinstall it, but the problem stayed unsolved. I unplugged the USB DVD drive, with no effects.
What would you suggest me to do?
