I had been wrestling with this problem for a month and the techs I brought it to 
were too scared to fiddle with the registry. I was facing a reformat and factory 
re-image, but instead of resorting to such a blunt tool, your procedure was a surgeon's 
touch! Thanks Angela for posting such a helpful solution! And thanks Cam for parsing 
the lines out for clarity.

My experience was that I did not have a value set either under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE 
SYSTEM\Default key. So I followed Cam's example and deleted the FILTERS from both 
Controlsets. I did not find any UPPERFILTERS, so deleted only LOWERFILTERS. Upon 
reboot, the drive was there again.

Thanks a million!
