Windows cannot start this hardware device because

go to iobit.com download the free driver booster upgrade for free software and run it to get the correct drivers for your machine
make sure all devices are in place when you run the software from iobit

I would manually un-install, and then reboot so the system could re-install. Also do a complete system virus scan, just to be sure
that a bug isn't operating.

You need to delete the upper and lower filters on the said registry entry.

• Open up your Device Manager where you'll see your DVD DX Hardware Device that no longer works correctly. Click it, and then click uninstall. Once uninstalled you can reboot, or click 'scan for new hardware'. Either way Windows will find your Device again and reinstall the driver and probably fix the registry entries.

• If that does not work, reboot your computer holding down F8 and select 'Load Last Known Good Configuration' before booting into Windows again. It'll restore your settings back when it didn't detect any problems.

This can occur when more than one service is defined for a device, if there is a failure opening the service subkey, or if the driver name cannot be obtained from the service subkey. Here are some things that you can try to resolve this problem.

Uninstall and reinstall the driver

Uninstall the driver from Device Manager and scan for new hardware to install the driver again.

You may be prompted to provide the path of the driver. Windows may have the driver built-in, or may still have the driver files installed from the last time that you set up the device. However, sometimes, it will open the New Hardware Wizard which may ask for the driver. If you are asked for the driver and you do not have it, you can try to download the latest driver from the hardware vendor’s Web site.

1. On the device Properties dialog box, click the Driver tab, and then click Uninstall. Follow the instructions.
2. Restart your computer.
3. Open Device Manager, click Action, and then click Scan for hardware changes. Follow the instructions.
