I fixed it!!! I opened the device manager and enabled to show hidden devices, This resulted in the same drives showing up several times. This is because i have moved my drives around. So I uninstalled all previous instances of the drives and WalLAh all is good. Thanks Again, Great forum and great software.

and according to ( busTRACE Technologies LLC - Filter Driver Load Order) the filters for all drives 1 Rom and 2 ram, show the redbook. ---------------------------------------------------- Filter Driver Load Order http://www.bustrace.com ---------------------------------------------------- Upper Class Filter: pwd_2k Upper Class Filter: Cdralw2k Upper Class Filter: GEARAspiWDM Upper Device Filter: redbook :& Device Object : Memorex DVD16+/-DL4RWlD2 Lower Class Filter: Cdr4_xp Lower Class Filter: PxHelp20 Lower Device Filter: imapi Driver Name: pwd_2k.sys File Location: c:\windows\system32\drivers File Description: Win2000 Framework for Packet Write Driver File Version: 8.0.5.41 [8.0.5.41] Product Name: Drag-to-Disc Product Version: 8.0.5.41 [8.0.5.41] Company Name: Sonic Solutions Driver Name: cdralw2k.sys File Location: c:\windows\system32\drivers File Description: CDRAL Place Holder Driver (see PxHelp) File Version: 8.0.0.212 [8.0.0.212] Product Name: Drag-to-Disc Product Version: 8.0.0.212 [8.0.0.212] Company Name: Sonic Solutions Driver Name: gearaspiwdm.sys File Location: c:\windows\system32\drivers File Description: CD/DVD Class Filter Driver File Version: 2.0.6.1 [2.0.6.1] Product Name: GEAR.wrks Product Version: 8.xx [2.0.6.1] Company Name: GEAR Software Inc.

I followed your suggestions and uninstalled the ide controllers... load info still says Upper & lower Not found. .. also in the registry there is still no reference to redbook.sys next step?..... manually add redbook to registry...create new Binary value? (name UpperDevice filter, and lower device filer) and just modify to show redbook.sys? Isn't there someone else who has the same apparent corruption.. maybe they have a batch file that will fix registry issue properly.. Thank you again for you help and comments and any other imput will be greatly appreciated.. bythe way when I get redbook showing up I'll start deleting old drag drop stuff.

-------------------------------- I don’t use drag to disc at all,.. Anymore, used to with older version of Roxio. These must be remnant driver files. I do use Roxio 10, a Lot, so before I delete any of those drivers I should probably contact Roxio on the necessity of those files.... Be right back going to delete ide controllers REBOOT, test burning and post back Later, thank you for the quick response to this post. In reference to adding redbook.sys manually, just create new Binary Value??

According to the properties in my device manager I show that I have redbook.sys drivers on my system, however according to imgburn my load order info shows upper device filter not found. Furthermore in my registry there is no reference to redbook.
