I was so afraid I'd have to re-install windows after spending days trying to solve the problem of losing my CD-Rom drives to the dreaded error 39. Erdiko's regedit fix took two minutes to do and I was up and running again. Thanks

Crazy, I've wasted so much time trying to fix the stupid drivers for these non-functioning cd-rom drives (I was getting error 32 repeatedly). And this fixed it in no time! And I have to mirror sactovic - how did you do that Erdiko? ?

I have recently seen this for only the second time, first time ended with a reinstall which seemed like a lot for what seemed to be a simple problem.

This saved a lot of hassle this time - Suspect the original owner got a virus or it was caused by Sonic or Roxio software?? Bought it as-is for $20 with monitor Dell Dimension 2350 1.9GHz 256M RAM 60G HD - I'm planning on using it as a digital music box!

I came across erdiko's posting of July 2nd, 2005 regarding the registry fix to get a CD-Rom working again. I had the same issue as the original person who posted the his/her problem, however, I was advised by my computer manufacturer's 'technical expert' that I'd have to reinstall my operating system (seems to be the common fix for these guys). I tried erdiko's recommendation, and 'BINGO' the CD-Rom drive was recognized after rebooting and works just fine now. Saved a lot of work. A big thanks to erdiko.

SM Bus Controller ...
1. On my XP Pro machine the first Registry hit is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4D36E97D-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0042]

2. Definition

3. Do a Google search for [ "sm bus controller" ], and read some of the hits for clues as to possible driver availabilities. One link is here.

Thank you so very much! On my laptop I rarely use the CD/DVD so I was very surprised with the error Code 39 when I did go to use it

I too just joined so I could thank erdiko for the fix.

Another win for this fix.

Thanks so much for posting it!

[Caspez]

Erdiko your amazing! Another success story!
I just reinstalled windows and encountered this problem. I'm really glad I did not have to reinstall again!
I did not know that this was a problem that happens to a lot of people.
Microsoft should do something about it! (But they probably won't )
Well anyways thanks for your help.
I will sure visit this site in the future and recommend it to others.

I have the same problem. I went into the registry (like many others) I found the key Enriko talked about but under it was 5 folders with just zeros as thrie title. I didn't find anything referring to upper & lower bat files & whatever else. Any idea?

I'm helping my nephew who needs this fixed before he goes back to college (or I hope to have it fixed)

[thedeerhunter]

[thedeerhunter]

Yes, I did try it in safe mode. The problem was I was trying to erase the hkey numerical value instead of the words Uppercase and lowercase, which just worked. Yes, it is like magic, I am anything but savy, but I understand a lot, But I do not understand how two seemingly unrelated words could do so much damage and corruption. Does anyone know What they are in simple terms? Anyway...another success story...thanks JP
