Answer 1

Hi there, first of all, that file name that you wrote up there, is that the exact spelling? 9elefobv.dll does not exist in Windows and should not be in the system32 directory. Strange. I'd run a virus scan just to be sure there isn't something on your machine that shouldn't be there.

With regard to the CD/CDRW not being detected by your system and therefore not working, here's what you can do for that.

First make a backup of your systems registry file:

Then clear the upper and lower filters in the registry. Make sure to follow the steps on this link under the "Method 2" section. It's easy, but be sure you are following along. You don't want to delete the incorrect thing.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

u might have 2 re-install windows xp to get the dll file back.

Hi . Nothing with that name should be in your computer unless another application installed it. Boot into 'Safe mode' and try again. (F8 during boot.) Run your malware programs while in Safe Mode.
