Virtual DVD Drives in available drives but I never setup these devices

by lab99a . Updated 19 years, 4 months ago

I have 2 virtual DVD drives showing in the list of avaliable disk drives and I at no point created these virtual devices and no matter what I do I can’t seem to get rid of them and obviously can’t use them because I don’t know what program created them so it is impossible to load data into the virutal devices.

I am running Windows XP Pro with all service packs and updates installed. The only programs on the system that I am aware of that may have created these devices is Alchol 120% of which I have gone to setup and made sure that no virtual DVD devices are defined. The other is Roxio Easy Media creator 8 and I am not even sure if Roxio even sets up virtual devices.

When I click properties of these devices it tells me the device is an AXV CD/DVD-ROM SCSI CdRom Device. I have gone into device mamager and disabled the devices but when I reboot they are back,

Anyon have any ideas?
