delete registry keys UpperFilters and LowerFilters.

Backup registry. Create a restore point, click on the start menu and select run. Type in regedit and press Enter. On the left hand side, you should see a bunch of folders. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class in the Registry Editor dialog box and select the {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} key, which appears as a folder. There will be many similar folders by that name, so make sure you select the exact folder as you see listed above. You should see a bunch of registry keys in the folder which will be listed in the right hand window. The two that are of particular interest to us are the LowerFilters and UpperFilters keys. Select each of them one at a time and then select Edit > Delete and press Yes to confirm. DO NOT delete any other registry keys other than the UpperFilters and LowerFilters entries. Now close out of regedit and restart windows. With any luck, you should now be able to see your CD drives in windows once again.

Groups in Autocad

There are several methods for choosing a group, including selecting the group by name or selecting one of the members of the group.

You can select groups by name at the Select Objects prompt. If the PICKSTYLE system variable is set to 1 or 3 and you select any member of a selectable group, all group members that meet the selection criteria are selected. You can also turn group selection on and off by pressing CTRL+ H or SHIFT+CTRL+A.

DVD -R for Video DVD +R for data

Check to see which formats your DVD drive supports. A DVD-RW drive, for example, can't burn DVD+R/RW. Most newer optical drives are compatible with both, and can burn and read all formats. See if it can take DVD-R/W, DVD+R/W, and/or DVD-RAM.

Figure out how much data you need to store on your DVD. If it is less than 4.7GB, you will be fine with any format. If you need more, dual-layer DVD+R/W or DVD-R/Ws, as well as double-sided DVD-RAM discs, hold as much as 9.4GB.

Decide if you need "plus," "minus/dash," or DVD-RAM formats. DVD-R/RW (dash or minus) are generally cheaper and more often compatible with DVD players, so they are better for video. DVD+R/RW (plus) are newer and are slightly more expensive; they burn and read faster, and are often better for data back-up. DVD-RAMs are often less compatible and are more expensive, but are best for backing up large amounts of data since they can be rewritten the most (see Step 4).

Decide if, or how often, you would want to rewrite the contents of the DVD. R is a write-once format; once you burn it, the data is on there permanently. RW can be rewritten approximately 1,000 times. DVD-RAM can be rewritten around 100,000 times.
