    cleaned up my computers registery and now my CD/DVD drive does not show up! HELP!?!?

    I recently used a registry cleaner to try and get rid of all the old gunky junk on my computer and now it runs hella fast and is amazing. however my DVD/CD rom drive no longer shows up when i go to MyComputer. How do i fix this? I put in CD's and nothing runs on my computer, all my other drives work and it spins the CD like it's reading it, but nothing registers on my computer. I have tried uninstalling and restarting to re-install my drive but that didn't work. I also tried putting back the backed up stuff the registry cleaner cleared out. I just rebooted my computer today and I really do not want to reboot it once again to get my drive back up and working again.

    Thanks for the help.

    It means that the Computer Registry cleaner saw the CD/DVD Drive as a threat to the computer and removed it. Redownload it.
