re: Question about 'Resolving Hardware Conflicts' Friday, March 7, 2008 at 11:23 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by John S (1 messages posted) I was having trouble finding upperfilters and lowerfilters as well. The script that was noted didn't work for me either. I just used the "find" function in the registry, searched for upperfilters. You can hit F3 and it will tab through all the instances of "upperfilters" in your entire registry. Thanks to reading the note from someone who accidentally deleted all the instances, I looked for info that showed if it was related to the CD or DVD rom drives. Fortunately it did. Do a find, look in the "data" column and look at the default file. As you F3 through them, some might say keyboard, others "value not set", and there will be ones that say CD or DVD. Delete these instances of the UpperFilters and LowerFilters. Restart...viola! Thanks again to those that solved this problem almost 4 years ago now and it is still working!!!
