      Drive d is my CD/DVD drive. And yes, I installed Pinnacle 10, a movie maker. I can't uninstall it because the uninstall part is outdated.

      How do you mean? is it a 16-bit application?

      you could try the free version of Revo Uninstaller to get rid of it: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html

          We nee to  some more details. You have been on the form of high and know the rules. You are supposed to give some detail in the first post.
          We need to have some idea of what kind of computer you are using. We see it you are using Windows 7, is this the actual release of Windows 7 or was it a beta version?

          Also what about your DVD drive? Is this the standard drive that came with your computer? Is it an external drive?

          What other software do you have that would access the DVD drive?

            Pinnacle 10 may have created a virtual drive...

            Open My Computer...use the snipping tool to capture the area and post the screenshot so we can see what is going on...

              PRINT SCREEN and the paste the image in mspaint. Save it and post it.
              While you're doing that though, when you open Windows Explorer what drives does it list?

                Does it work for you? Then it doesn't work for us either. After you've saved the image to your hd, post here by clicking on the button in the text editor that says: Insert Image
