Computers Suck... Windows more specifically

So last night I get home and thing to myself... I'm going to burn a copy of MS Vista so I can install it on my home pc... I go downstairs, grab a DVD-R, run back up to my laptop, slap the disc in, fire up MyDVD Plus and find that Windows is no longer recognizing my DVD burner, or my Virtual CD drive for that matter. Come to find out the drivers are just corrupted, no big deal right? Just reinstall the drivers... nope!

So I search online for new drivers, nothing, start searching for reasons why this happens and stumbled upon some article about UpperLimit and LowerLimit settings in the registry. Follow some stupid MS KnowledgeBase article and get my CD drive back (still won't work in MyDVD tho) but now my friggin' wireless isn't work.... WTF?! What do computers have against me?
