Wow, this is going to take me forever to cut and paste. Is there anything in particular you're looking for so that I can give you that section and not drown this form with possibly useless information?

A question or two, when you tried the cdgone patch were you logged on as Admin and did it ask you to re-boot on completion?
Are the two drives recognised in BIOS?

I had to register in order to download the patch, but I don't know about being logged on as "Admin". After I added the patches, I was not asked to re-boot.

What is BIOS?

Download, unzip, install & run Everest, select Computer [highlight]Summary[/highlight] and push the Report button.

I was going to ask what Operating System you had but thought I'd kill two birds with one stone by getting a little more info on your computer at the same time.

At least we won't have to ask you for any further computer details. LOL

I'm not convinced you applied the cdgone patch properly, can you tell us what you did after downloading it?

Hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and see who you are logged on as.
Then Start>Settings>Control Panel>Users & Passwords to see what rights you have as that user.

Kelly_Chartier · « **Reply #24 on:** July 22, 2006, 09:27:03 PM »

Well, I did press Summary... Maybe I'm missing something. Oh well, I guess you got what you need out of that.

After downloading the patch onto my desktop (which is automatic), I read the read me and found that it didn't give very good instructions; just a bit of an explaination of what these patches are. I accidentally double clicked on cdgone (I'm a spaz, what can I say), and then I clicked on EditReg. After those two were done I was left wondering: "is that it?"

I am logged in as "Owner" apparently, with "Active" status. I'm not sure where I should be looking to find out my rights as "Owner" but by my user name it says "Computer Administrator"... Is that what you're looking for?

Fed · « **Reply #25 on:** July 23, 2006, 12:23:58 AM »

Re-run the cdgone.reg file, if double clicking on it opens a text file then right click on it & select merge with registry or something like that.
Then re-boot after the file has run.
Don't run the editreg file.

Kelly_Chartier · « **Reply #26 on:** July 23, 2006, 01:10:41 AM »

It only gives me the option of opening it's text file.

Fed · « **Reply #27 on:** July 23, 2006, 02:51:18 PM »

Read the Read Me First text from the cdgone zip file and you will see what editreg has done.
You are supposed to be able to right click a .reg file & choose 'merge' but it appears there is something wrong with this option.
We will have to try & find (Google) a way around this before we can proceed.
Did you backup your registry before running the patches?

GX1_Man · « **Reply #28 on:** July 23, 2006, 04:01:51 PM »

This thread has gone far afield, so let's back up a bit.

In Device Manager, what are the errors shown by the exclamation marks? There will be a description of what the problem is.

Do you have a real Windows CD if that becomes necessary?

And DID you back up the registry?

Fed · « **Reply #29 on:** July 23, 2006, 11:14:08 PM »

Good thought GX1_Man, I expect there should be an error code too.
I'd also like to get Kelly's file associations sorted out too, the problem is that there's 2 registry editors to choose from, I'm not 100% sure which one is the default for XP.
It's either regedit or regedt32, I suspect the latter.
