I just did a FULL restore of my laptop to fix windows problems and I am already having a problem with my DVD drive. Before installing Decrypter, DVDShrink and CloneDVD the drive was working fine- put the movie in and the autoplay box would pop up asking me what I wanted to do with the movie and in My Computers the Drive would say the title of the disk. After installing the 3 programs autoplay doesn't work, isn't listed when right clicking on the drive and the drive keeps saying DVDCD-RW Drive.
Any ideas?

Not sure about this one? We need to narrow it down a little so try this. Uninstall all of those proggys (DVDD, Shrink, and CDVD) then see if your drive works as normal again? If it does then install each of those proogys one at a time again, but after you install each one test out your drive again to make sure it works.
Example:
Install DVD Shirink - Restart PC - Test out drive
Install DVD Decrypter - Restart PC - Test out drive
Install CloneDVD - Restart PC - Test out drive
This should tell us which proggy is causing the problems. It is probably CloneDVD but we need to check to be sure. Is this CloneDVD2 by slysoft?

I'll work on it tomorrow. I'll wait to see if anyone knows for a fact what to do and how to fix it. (I have more than a dozen other programs I still need to install so hopefully someone will have a "quick" fix so I don't need to waste too much time. I already wasted ALL day reloading windows, AOL, and Norton.)

Yeah I used the Drivers Recovery disk to reinstall all drivers and did see it installing ASPI while it was installing everything.

If WinDVD is not listed in your autoplay try this:
My Computer\Tools\Folder Options\File types\
Highlight WinDVD and click advance. Click new and type "play" (without the quotes). Point to Windvd.exe path. Okay your way out. WinDVD should be listed in your autoplay option. Just configure it for autoplay.
This is just a hunch. It may fix your problem.

Also...if DVDecrypter is listed as a player in the file types box, just delete it.

I give up! Now it's working fine again. I jsut put in a movie and WinDVD popped up and started playing. The onlly thing I've done since I had the problem was remove Adobe Type Manager 4 because that was causing hibernation to not work because it wasn't compatible with the "keyboard device."

What is that and why do I need it? Even HP said that ALL that I needed was on the Windows XP disk, the driver recovery disk and the application disk.
