Bug - Lightroom 3 - CD/DVD drive corrupted

I have an issue that has been tested and proven to be Lightroom related whereas installing Lightroom, and updating to v 3.3 has caused my cd/DVD RW drive to be lost and corrupted.
The following notes and  timeline are a little long, but they fully explain the situation. If  anyone has had this issue or knows about a fix I would appreciate a  reply:
I will also add that I am a little peeved at the tech for Adobe customer support because he tried to brush me off after a few basic steps and told me the problem was a Windows issue. He said that Lightroom was installed on thousands of PC’s, and if the problem was Adobe’s there would be other people with the same issue… That was a presumptuous statement; as there is always the first case of a bug, and just because I was the first one to either have or report this problem, it did not justify Adobe leaving me cold. There is now a case number on this issue after further testing and my insistence that he escalate the case because I had already determined that it occurred at the precise moment I installed Lightroom. the Adobe Case # is 0181989673
Problem Timeline:
After installing Lightroom 3, I discovered that CD/DVD Re-Writer drive was not working for Lightroom exports, I was seeing the notice at the bottom of theexport window stating “Disc Burning is not supported by lightroom on this computer” (The same as in the V 2.2 Bug)… As well, I looked in Windows > MyComputer, and the CD/DVD RW drive was missing.  I looked to the device manager. The CD/DVD Writer was listed in the tree but had a yellow exclamation notice. I Confirmed Error Code (I beleive it was code 31) for Driver not loading properly or corrupted.
I did some research and found the following information at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116
I followed the instructions as listed below (inset)... Timeline continued after.
Your CD drive or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs:

After reinstalling your programs, if you can play or access a CD or DVD, you are finished with this article.
After performing above procedures the CD/DVD drive loaded (Plug and Play) successfully and was recognized at a basic level. I re-installed the authoring software (Ashampoo Burning Studio 6). At this time I could read and write to DVD via Ashampoo; but still, I could no longer write to either CD or DVD via Windows XP.
Also at this time; I could still no longer write to CD or DVD via Lightroom 3.3 using export and choosing CD/DVD… Lighroom was still listing at the bottom of the export window “Disc Burning is not supported by lightroom on this computer”.
This brings me to the point at which I called Adobe Support; Case # 0181989673
Adobe tech had me perform the following:
Pull     the preferences folder out of Lightroom 3.3 folder and re-start Lightroom…     Problem still present
Open     Lightroom from the Administrators User account; import a photo and try to     export and burn to CD/DVD… Problem      still present
At this time the tech told me it was a Windows issue; NOT an Adobe issue; and that I would need to take it up with Microsoft, or just export to hard drive and burn to CD/DVD afterward using authoring software.
I immediately told the tech that was NOT acceptable because this issuewas caused by installing Lightroom 3.3; and although the problem now existed in Windows; that did not wash Adobes hands of it. I requested that the case been escalated to a senior tech… I did not at all appreciate the idea of being left in the middle and I also did not appreciate the notion of having a CD/DVD writer that was buggy and not performing as it should.
He told me "Lightroom was installed on thousands of PC’s, and if the problem was Adobe’s there would be other peoplewith the same issue"… To me, that was a STUPID statement; as there is always the first case of a bug, and just because I was the first one to either have or report this problem, did not justify Adobe leaving me cold.
The     tech decided to try creating a new Windows XP user account as     administrator and re-test Lightroom for burning to CD/DVD… Problem still present
Tech     instructed me to un-install and Re-install Lightroom. I un-installed     Lightroom. After taking screen shots of my preference settings (since I     would need to re-set all settings again). I uninstalled Lightroom.
At     this time; though the tech did not think of doing it; I decided to try and     burn to CD/DVD via Windows to see if the problem was gone after removal of     Lightroom. Now, with Lightroom removed, I can write to CD/DVD in the     conventional way using drag and drop via Windows.
I      told the tech what I had done; proving that this was in fact related to      Lightroom. He stated the case would be escalated and gave me the case      number.
I hope this taught the tech a lesson in troubleshooting and hope he will not be so quick to assume “Not an Adobe issue” as the exact cause of this anomaly has not been determined yet... Now I have not re-installed Lightroom yet. I would like for the senior tech who takes this case to contact me to give me further instruction because I have no reason to believe re-installation will not cause me problems again and want the tech to witness the result.

This problem has been resolved. I haven't heard from anyone else who has had the same issue, but in the event anyone does I can say what corrected it and I have a theory of what might have happened. Originally I installed Lightroom from the disk and after installation chose to update. After this is when the problem with the CD/DVD drive showed up. The tech at Adobe said they did not know what could have caused it, but recommended re-installing Lightroom to see if it happened again.
I did some research and found information at Peachpit: Having trouble burning CD/DVDs in Lightroom 2.2?
about a bug that was present in version 2.2 where the installation executable was accidentally installing the 64 bit drivers on the 32 bit system... The 64 bit drivers were corrupting the installation... On a hunch that it could be a similar issue, I downloaded Lightroom version 3.3 from Adobe and installed it rather than installing from the original CD. I did the install following the same instructions on the Peachpit post which was to double-click the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 folder, then double-click the setup32.exe file rather than double clicking the default installation executable.
I did not prove the above theory of the version 2.2 bug to be the cause, but the problem I had with the CD drive appeared after the original installation and went away after I uninstalled that installation of Lightroom. Now after re-installing as explained; the problem is gone.

  • DVD Driver corrupted

    My DVD drive in my B570 has stopped working. Windows says that the "driver is missing or corrupted". As far as I can tell, there is no driver download available. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    Hi
    Welcome To Lenovo Community
    We are really sorry to hear about the issue you are facing,  
    This is most likely a software related issue, but as a first step, ensure the drive is still recognized at the hardware level by restarting the system and entering BIOS or boot menu .  Ensure the DVD drive is recognized as one of the attached storage devices.
     If the drive is not recognized in BIOS, please contact service.
     If the drive is recognized in BIOS, but does not work properly in Windows:
     You might try the automated Microsoft Fixit solution for CD/DVD drives here.
      If you are you are technically proficient, you can also try the following to remove the affected filter drivers.
     1. Click on the Start button and type regedit in the Start Search box. Click on the located file in the Programs list.
     2. Type in your administrator password or confirmation if you are prompted to do so and click on Continue.
     3. Locate, and then click the following registry subkey:
    hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\class\{4d36e965-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
     Note that there may be many instances of the registry subkey that is mentioned in step 3. Check that you are in the appropriate registry subkey before modifying the UpperFilters and the LowerFilter values. To verify that you are in the appropriate registry subkey, make sure that the default data value is DVD/CDRom and the class data value is CDRom.
     In the right pane, right-click Upperfilters , and then click Delete .
     Click Yes to confirm the removal of the Upperfilters registry entry.
     In the right pane, right-click Lowerfilters , and then click Delete .
    Click Yes to confirm the removal of the Lowerfilters registry entry.
     Exit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.

  • LightRoom 1.3.1 corrupts DVD/CD-ROM device driver

    There is a device driver corruption bug in the new LightRoom 1.3.1, and it is observed if you upgrade from LR 1.3.0. Following a reboot after the updating installation of LR 1.3.1, the device driver for an external USB DVD/CD-ROM device will get corrupted, as noted in the Windows Device Manager. This was not a problem with any of the prior upgrades of LR from 1.0 through 1.3.0.
    My environment is Windows XP Professional SP-2 on a Lenovo X60s ultra-light laptop. This laptop does not have a DVD/CD-ROM device built-in because of it size. So, I have an externally powered DVD/CD-ROM player/burner device that plugs into one of the USB ports. As long as I am using LightRoom 1.3.0, everything works fine for whenever I plug-in and access my external USB DVD/CD-ROM drive. I can leave the external device plug-in and reboot, or use the USB dismount of the device and reboot and then plug-in the device, or any combination of these steps and the external device will continue to work.
    When I install the LR 1.3.1 upgrade, as long as I don't reboot, I can run LR 1.3.1 and it will work fine and so will the external device. I can dismount the USB DVD/CD-ROM device and then plug it in again and it will still work fine and so will LR 1.3.1, just so long as I do not reboot after installing LR 1.3.1. As soon as I reboot the computer, even if done immediately after only installing LR 1.3.1, and regardless of whether or not the external USB DVD/CD-ROM device is plug-in, after the reboot, the Device Manager will indicate that the device driver for the DVD/CD-ROM device is corrupted.
    In order to isolate the cause of my device driver corruption problem, I had utilizing the Windows Restore Point capability. I am able to step back to a very recent Restore Point where LR 1.3.1 had not yet been installed, and I am able to plug in and dismount at any time my external USB DVD/CD-ROM device and always be able to use it without any problems. I can also reboot the computer and the USB DVD/CD-ROM device will continue to work without any problems, whether it was left plugged in or if I hot plug it in after the computer has fully rebooted.
    For the record, I used different files and different methods for updating LR from 1.3.0 to 1.3.1. One method was to use the update feature within LR. Other methods used included two different downloaded *.EXE files to do the update without LR open. No matter which method was used to update to LR 1.3.1, the corruption of the device driver was always the same after a reboot.
    I also did test installs to be sure that other applications didn't cause the same problem. I can confidently report that I updated four other applications and rebooted and the USB DVD/CD-ROM drive continue to work just fine. One of the updates was the latest Adobe's Flash Player.

    Yu may want to review your system to see if you are getting the same error as I did. If not, then just send them the correct information.
    Here is exactly what I wrote - you just need to change what CD/DVD drives you have on your system:
    'I can not get either of my CD/DVD drives to work. I have tried to uninstall and reboot system for Windows to pick them up. I can not rollback or update the driver as it is not finding the files. They see the drives under Computer Management, but I get this error: "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)"
    I need to have the inf files and do not have access to the cd you sent as all the drivers are down. Can you resend the inf files for the "CD/DVD 1" & "CD/DVD 2"?'
    Hope this helps - Dan

  • Satellite P205D-S7802: CD/DVD drive issue; driver corrupted or missing

    Hi,
    Dvd unit has not recognized by the OS.
    When i open My Computer the only unit displayed is C, there's no D unit.
    Then I go to device manager to check it, and I notice that the DVD unit has problems, then i open properties and the error message is:
    "HL-DT-ST DVD RAM GSAT20N ATA DEVICE
    Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing".
    First i thought that was a hardware problem, but I introduced the windows vista disc at boot and the unit read it very well. Then I choose update driver from device manager and the updater told me that the best driver was already installed for the device.
    I tried to replace the .sys and .info files for cd-roms but nothing happened either.
    What is happening, please help, is urgent i need to use my dvd unit.
    Regards.

    Try this:
    remove the CD/DVD drive from the device manager list
    access the registry and remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  • How do I install new OS when (a) DVD drive doesn't work, (b) current OS corrupt

    I've got a real conundrum.
    I've got a Mac Pro 2x2.8 server from 2008 running OS Leopard Server 5.8... I just bought the Snow Leopard Server software on CD and was going to install when two things happened. Firstly, i discovered my CD drive didn't work... and my Super Drive didn't show up either... Secondly, the current operating system has become severely corrupted, which means I can't even load up the system.
    I've tried pressing C, D, Option, Shift, Command S and Command V during startup, but not getting anywhere.
    And I can't install any new software because I can't use my DVD drive - internal or external.
    W-T-F-Do I do?
    Is there any way to transfer the Snow Leopard CD contents onto a hard drive and load via USB / Firewire?
    Bright ideas and inspired suggestions much appreciated.
    Jay

    For Leopard or Snow Leopard you need an installer DVD.
    1. You can purchase replacements for the original discs from Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Apple - Support - Contact Apple Support.
    2. Buy a new Snow Leopard DVD.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.

  • DVD ROM driver corrupt

    Hi, I hope someone can help.  My DVD ROM is in my device manager but I can seem to reload the driver or find anywhere that can help me locate and download it. I deleted it from the device manager and then had windows search for it and the driver but that didn't work. The DVD is Optiarc BD ROM BC -5500S.  I can find references to it but it doesn't seem to be a straightforward problem to fix.

  • Lightroom 4 macbook pro no dvd drive

    So without thinking, I ordered Lightroom 4 as an istallation disc instead of a download.  Of course I can't use it on my macbook pro because it doesn't have a dvd drive.  Since I will have a serial number can I still download from the Adobe website?  Asking before I open the box so I can still return it unopened if I need to.
    Feeling pretty dumb

    Download and install the Trial version from the Adobe website and authorize it with the serial number which came with the box.
    Note: you always have the option to buy a cheap external DVD drive and connect it to the Macbook via USB for the odd occasion when you want to install software from disks or rip a CD. I do that occasionally on my MacBook Air when travelling.
