    After cleaning out my computer by using various registry and adware removal software I found on rebooting my computer I found this message:ElbyCheck has detected a corrupt Filter Driver PxHelp20
    This driver will prevent your CD-Roms to work properly."

    I took the option to delete this file. I rebooted and found that
    Windows XP could no longer find my CD ROM which is a TDK 880NRead/RW
    I fixed that by resinstalling the Elby software and or reconnecting the power cable but now my TDK 880NRead/RW
    can't read ANY disc at all! My Nero Burning ROM Version 6.6.0 15 reads the TDK 880NRead/RWbut it does not read any disc. My explorer reads the drive as does any software but no file explorer or software will let the drive recognize any media, though Nero does open and close the drive for me. I updated the firmware for the TDKTDK 880NRead/RW. Device manager shows that all hardware and drivers are functioning properly.

    Hey William,

    I had exactly the same problem as you. I use a TDK 880N drive, with Nero Burning ROM. I may have a simple solution for you.

    Are you running Nero In-CD? There is an option inside which says 'MRW Format on All MRW-capable Drives'. Turn it OFF because our 880N does not support MRW (Mount Ranier Format). I found this to be the cause of my DVD drive not being able to read anything and even jamming my computer whenever a disc is put into the DVD drive.

    Check your [bold]system tray[/bold]for the In-CD icon. If you find it, right click and choose [bold]options[/bold].

    Hope it works!

    Best wishes,
    Lance
