Your W2K or XP CD-ROM driver fails to load...

I brought my XP Home image across from my laptop using transporter and soon thereafter I was in a quandry, no CD-ROM. The Device (real or virtual) showed in device manager, but it always had the yellow exclamation - and there was no CD-ROM letter.

Turned out somehow in the translation to Parallels I stumbled onto a Windows bug that can be cured by removing some offending keys in the registry, see below:

I originally thought it was some sort of Parallels thing, but not so.
