• Error code 19 - CD/DVD-ROM problem. Please help and read the description first!

  I tried to load my games such as rollercoaster tycoon on my computer by inserting them into the disc drive. Nothing happens. I went to toautoplay and it had all the right settings I wanted. I changed several times and tried to re - insert the disc, but nothing has happened yet. I thought it was a problem of CD/DVD drive, so I went to 'Computer', right-click on Vista64 (C :) and selected 'properties'.) I clicked on the Hardware tab, and then on HL - DT - ST DVDRAM GS20N, my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive. I realized quickly that there was a problem, because the box said"device status: Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged.» (Code 19) «. I looked at the code 19 on the support Web page and found a link to a Microsoft Fixit, Windows Powershell 1.0. I installed the program, he ran through and he said that he had fixed the problem. I inserted the game once more, but still nothing happens. I went to my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive once more and he said that the problem was not resolved. I don't know how to solve this problem. Help, please! (It is not just the CD I try to insert, because none of the many CD I tried to use will work). Should I try to restart my computer?

  Hi meluvcheese22,

  This can occur when more than one service is defined for a device, if there is a failure opening the service subkey, or if the driver name cannot be obtained from the service subkey.

  To resolve this problem, you can follow the methods below:

  Method 1:

  Important: The following instructions contain the steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information, view the article:How to back up and restore the registry in Windows:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Back-up-the-registry

  a. Click Start and then click all programs.

  b. click Accessories and then click Run.

  c. type regedit and then click OK.

  d. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

  e. in the navigation pane, search for, and then click the following registry subkey:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  f. in the right pane, click UpperFilters.

  Note: You may also see an UpperFilters.bak registry entry. You don't have to delete this entry. Click UpperFilters. If you do not see the UpperFilters registry entry, you may still have to delete the LowerFilters registry entry. To do this, go to step i.

  g. in the Edit menu, click on delete.

  h. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.

  i. in the right pane, click LowerFilters.

  j. in the Edit menu, click on delete.

  k. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.

  Exit Registry Editor.

  Mr., restart the computer.

  You can check the link below: your CD-ROM drive or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116

  Method 2:

  a. Click Start, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter. The Device Manager window opens

  b. expand DVD/CD player and right click on the sub element and click on uninstall.

  c. restart your computer.

  d. open Device Manager, click Action,

  e. click on scan for hardware changes. Follow the instructions.

• Windows Update error code 646 & dt000.

  Received the Windows Update error Code 646 & dt000 does not allow the following 2 updates be installed (KB976382 KB981725) what I need to do.

  Sorry, you have problems getting your patches installed. I have a number of things for you to look at.  First of all, yourBackground Intelligent Transfer Services set toAutomaticand started and Windows Update ? They both should be started. You can check these settings by typing services.msc in the search box of the start menu.

  Sometimes in order to get patches to install correctly, you must perform these tasks manually. Click each of the links below and click on download and run.  You must accept the agreement and then click on continue.

  KB976382

  KB981725

  If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner.  Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or can clear the virus that can prevent the installation of the patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and thenQuick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.

  I had to disable the "User Account Control" (UAC), which allows you to run as administrator in Vista.  After that I turned it off, all 4 of these updates installed and it doesn't require manual installation.   Follow these steps:

  In the case of Vista view:

  1.) go to start; Control Panel; "User accounts and family safety"; User accounts.
  2.) click on 'Enable user account control or disable' (last point on the page)
  3.) clear the checkbox "Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer" and click "OK."
  4.) restart the computer, and then run the installation of the system and they work.

  If you are in Classic view:

  1.) go to start; Control Panel; Security Center
  2 screen.) in the "Windows Security Center", go to the last item "User Account Control" and click the button to turn off.

  You can also see the security shield in your Start menu.  You can also access the UAC via this.

  After that the installation of the system have been updated, make sure that you go back and turn the UAC "" and then restart your computer so that unauthorized updates do not occur.   Always try this turn off if install doesn't work.
