device manager, it has an exclamation point in it, meaning something wrong.
it says windows cannot start this hardware because its configuration
information ( in the registry ) is incomple or damaged (Code 19) ... what to
do? i tried going to link

Goto http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpcd.php#problems
See the second "problem" (read the caveats)
Run the provided registry patch
That should fix your problem (basically, a filter driver is missing or
non-operational, the registry patch will delete the filter drivers
references for your cdrom(s))
Basically, the reg file from above carries out the steps displayed at this
website

Or use the contents of CDgone.zip to do the same steps automagically. A
