I have been having a problem with my emachines T6520 desktop with Windows XP. The CDROM and DVD+/RW are not being recognized by my pc. I follweed the instructions emachines gave me for deleting upper and lower filters. It didn't change a thing. the drives didn't show, autorun didn't work and I noticed today that the drives won't even open! I did a system restore from a month ago and still no good. I'm so sick of Xp. i always have some problem with it. What can I do?:'(

Jump to Postyou did system restore ,before or after you removed the upper and lower filters , go back to regedit and check and make sure they no longer excist in the registry .
if you are comfortable opening the tower, open and check that the power and ribbon cables are plugged …
Jump to Postsystem restore may have replaced the filters ,check again and make sure to delete them if present,reboot computer and check drives
