Solve : CD drive opens and closes automatically.....?

Answer»

I know a VBS script that does it on a loop, and it made my computer sound like a hurricane and crashed it!Done.  I thought that you could only run c code and get it to do that stuff.Prepare a boot able floppy.
Boot from the flippy.
Let it sit for 10 minuets and see if the CD opens by itself. Quote from: BC_Programmer on FEBRUARY 18, 2009, 04:28:36 PM


O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [mpx] c:\WINDOWS\system32\mpx.exe

We need to remove the malware first but honestly the CD tray sounds like a dist problem to me. Some argue it can't carry a current but I think it's been proven it can.

globalpal_ooty - I suggest uninstalling the Paretlogic Driver Cure. (Unless it's a paid version). This company isn't trusted.

Open HijackThis and select Do a system scan only.

Place a check mark next to the following entries: (if there)

- O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE
- O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [mpx] c:\WINDOWS\system32\mpx.exe


Important: Close all open windows except for HijackThis and then click Fix checked.

Once completed, exit HijackThis.

----------

Go to Start > Run and type notepad.exe then click OK

Copy and paste the below into Notepad and save as fixme.reg to Your Desktop

Code: [Select]REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentVersion\Run]
"Alcmtr"=-

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"mpx"=-

Locate fixme.reg on your Desktop and double-click it. Answer Yes when prompted to merge with the Registry.

Make sure that you tell me if you RECEIVE a success message about adding the above to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it did not work.

Delete the fixme.reg from the Desktop.
