Sync Issues & Now Related CD Drive Issues

[Scamperdoo]

I want to sync my iPad Mini with Outlook 2007. I installed iTunes and got the error message below:
iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs you will need to reinstall i Tunes.

So I tried to fix the problem and followed the instructions on the article below.
iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes at iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes at support.apple.com/kb/ts3299

That did not work and now my CD Drive is missing so I followed the instructions on the article below.
iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install at iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install at support.apple.com/kb/TS2308


So now I have a missing CD Drive and iTunes till does not work. Can someone please help bring back my CD Drive and get iTunes to work?
