Does anyone have any ideas on this one - 

I have an Ultra5 with a SunPCI II card in it with windows 2000 installed..
I noticed that in windows I couldn't get any sound from the cdrom drive
and in my investigation I selected the setting to enable digital audio from
the cdrom device...   After win2k rebooted, my cdrom device was gone and
a look into the device manager revealed the driver is failing to load..   I cant
undo the digital audio setting because the driver isnt loaded to let me in to
change the settings..    I tried all the usual things - re-installed the driver,
deleted the device and let win2k discover and reload it etc..  but nothing will
fix it.   I refreshed the drivers from the original ones delivered in the sunpci
package but still the driver wont load.    I know the hardware is fine as the
cdrom is accessible from Solaris 2.8.   Does anyone have any ideas what 
I can do to set this thing back where it was??  I even poked around in the 
registry looking for anything like 'digitalaudio' but never found any setting
that looked like what I was looking for...  

If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this I would be grateful.

Monty
