• (Redirected) Alienware M17x R4: Windows7 not detecting SATA DVD/CD internal optical drive, game dvd stuck inside.

  Hello, I need help here because I can't really understand what causes the problem.

  I inserted a BioShock 2 legit installation DVD, and my CD/DVD drive does not detect. I tried to take the drive by pressing the eject ODD button, but nothing happened.

  Under 'My Computer' my drive does not appear.

  In Device Manager, it does not show any CD/DVD player either.

  Control of my computer

  

  I took a lot of steps trying to find out what is happening, and I thought it was a problem of software based.

  Ran the Dell diagnostics, Fix It, started and checked in safe mode and pretty much everything what they advised me to do in the guides.

  One step, I am committed not, where do I look for the registry subkey 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}' and change the filters upper and/or lower, because there is no filters to change.

  Photo of my registry editor

  

  The last step, I got added the following subkey to atapi in regedit.

  

  When you pull up my laptop, I hear my work in the car. During the ejection of pressing, looks like she is about to eject the disc, but nothing has yet come out.

  The CD/DVD drive is recognized in the BIOS but does not appear in my device manager. It becomes clear to power. In the BIOS, it mentions "SATA ODD MATSHITARV11 Downloader". It is also displayed in Intel RST.

  

  I don't have that a single HARD drive on my laptop, and in my BIOS my SATA operations are on RAID. It would make a difference if I switch to AHCI? Could it be a loose connector causing this problem of detection for my OS? If so, isn't weird that my BIOS is always detect? I am able to boot from the CD/DVD, but when I do just start of my storage drive as he always does.

  Any ideas?

• Compaq dc7800 not DETECT in bios network controller

  Compaq dc7800 not DETECT in bios network controller when worked fine yesterday

  Hello:

  If I clear the CMOS and see if the PC learns the material.

  If this does not work, I have to assume the on-board NETWORK interface has failed and you need to add a PCI or PCIe NIC card.

  Please see the below troubleshooting guide, annex B, page 60.

• Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

  Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

  Having a printer at the office and one at home, but use the same PC for both? Unable to print at home after bring you it to the office (and vice versa)?

  If you USB, most of the time, the PC will recognize what printer is which. Sometimes PORTS does not commute. You can manually change the correct ports if necessary.

  CLICK ON THE MENU START

  1 devices and printers

  2 right CLICK on the printer

  3. choose the PRINTER PROPERTIES

  4. click on PORTS

  5. There will be a list of ports with one (checked marked). If it's on the wrong port, change to the right pair and choose APPLY.

  (NOTE: it must ALWAYS be on a USB port or a wireless connection.) Some ports wireless start with a #(adresse IP) or a SERIAL number)

  I hope this helps. Sometimes, you can create your own port if you have more questions.

• Alienware 14 - integrated graphics not detected in BIOS

  Recently my NVidia graphics card was not detected in the bios and in Device Manager, so I contacted Dell and they replaced my motherboard (NVidia is built into the motherboard). Now I can see my NVidia card in my system. But original window 8 still gives me blue screen error (ERROR FATALE VIDEO) and when the pc is restarted, NVidia has also disappeared. But I see once again when I shut down and turn on again. So, I use my own 8.1 window, and all is still ok, now with the exception of two errors.

  First one, it of my intel graphics hd went and not detected in the BIOS. I don't want to run on NVidia card all the time.

  Second, one is that I can not install my killer LAN driver for my LAN network. I can only install driver wifi.

  Is it because of 8.1 window problem or hardware problem? I hope the technician Dell can help me. Thank you.

  Now, I solved the problem. Thanks for your advice. Problem is that in windows 8, I can see the two crads graphics in Manager mode optimus devices or not. But in windows 8.1 I don't see them both when I'm in the mode optimus, only nvidai map is visible in Device Manager. But can see them both in mode no optimus. Hope that the answer will help others.

• HARD drive is not detected in BIOS - need to recover data.

  What happened is that my laptolaptop takes a long time to start, so I slapped him. After that I kept getting the error message "no boot device, please restart". So whenever I restarted I kept getting this message. I also sometimes had "Media Fail" message. I pressed F2 at startup to get into the Bios. Settings so check I saw that hard disk still showed it's a Hitachi one.

  My hard drive was clicking to it so I searched online advice on what to do and I saw on the opening of the hard drive in a clean environment, ensuring that no dust went on the drive. I expect the head being stuck on disc, but it was not stuck. So basically, I put the lid on. Since then, the hard drive was not detected.

  Not in the Bios (he said no). I bought a CD to restart which can temporarily become Windows to the screen under Xp, so I can go to the computer to retrieve data from the hard drive. It shows nothing. There is always a clicking hard drive, more a ticking sound. It is always possible that an expert could remove the hard drive and recover my data that are valuable photos and videos.

  Thank you

  What model of laptop do you have?
  Try to set the BIOS to default settings and check if the HARD drive is recognized correctly.

• EliteBook 8460p: battery not detected - update Bios?

  Right now my Elitebook running WIN10 and I get a message that says no battery detected.  I read that possibly the BIOS update "might" help with this situation.

  I looked at the details including the suggested site:

  Date of revision of the BIOS - 26/08/2001

  BIOS Rev 68SCF worm. F.08

  Type of processor - Intel Core i5 - 2410 M CPU

  I will be downgrading back to WIN7 PRO and back again to WIN10 as soon as my recovery disks are coming, but I wanted to know what Version of Bios should I download and install.  I want to get this right.

  Hi fkbsar1954,

  If I understand your post of the BIOS on your lapop is currently F.08.  If that is correct, it would be hard to bet that your laptop is at least four years because the BIOS F.08 was released in August 2011. That would mean that there is a high probability of 'no battery detected' error was due to a defective battery, but for troubleshooting of sake, it would be a good step to update the BIOS because there have been 4 separate BIOS releases the correction of different battery problems. What is the recommended version I would recommend that you upgrade to the latest version, F.61, in order to ensure the best possible compatibility with Windows 10 account taken of your system does not officially support Windows 10. F.61 BIOS can be found here:

• Second SATA hard drive not detected by Bios and Device Manager

  Original title: second SATA hard drive

  Hard drive not detected by the Bios and the device under Vista Home Premiun Manager

  Hi trinitario,.

  Because the hard drive is not detected in the BIOS also, it may be due to a hard drive configuration that should be changed or a rider. If you need to get in touch with a Local tech-store for assistance.

  Note: change in the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• Alienware 15 audio jack not detected

  I've seen a lot of posts on the problems of the audio jack but none with my system.  I have an AlienWare with Windows 10 15.  It does not detect the audio jack of 3.5 mm.  I have Creative Sound Blaster Recon3Di driver, says that it is up-to-date.  Tried to uninstall it a reboot, but it seems to remain installed.  When I plugged headphones and try to detect disabled and disconnected devices it shows nothing.  I can get USB working headset, but I really just want to plug into the headphone jack!

  Thanks for any help,

  Hello.

  I would test the audio driver, by changing the audio driver Creative SoundBlaster Recon with the native Windows audio driver. Here are 2 ways to do this.

  1. open Device Manager (found in the Control Panel, or type devmgmt.msc in the search box).
  2. develop the 'audio controllers, video & game' and right click on Creative SoundBlaster Recon.
  3 Select this option to "Update driver software".
  4. click on "Browse my computer for driver software".
  5. click on "Let Me pick from a list of drivers on my computer".
  6. put the "Show compatible hardware" check box if not already checked.
  7. in the list of devices, click on 'High Definition Audio"(native driver).
  8. click on "next".
  9. in the update driver warning box, click 'Yes' (the driver).
  10 restart the portable computer if you are prompted. If not invited, so no need to restart.
  [To return to the Creative SoundBlaster Recon pilot, do it again but reverse steps 2-7 names].

  ===============================================================================

  Sometimes this procedure does not work with Windows 10, so here's another method, which is to remove all the Creative SoundBlaster Recon driver files.

  1. open Device Manager
  2. expand the section sound, video & game controllers.
  3. right click on the Creative SoundBlaster Recon and select uninstall.
  4. check the option to remove the software driver, click ok.
  5 reboot the laptop and go back to Device Manager and check again a Creative SoundBlaster Recon pilot. Keep the uninstall & reboot up to Creative SoundBlaster Recon is no longer under his... Controllers and "High definition Audio Device" (the native driver) is displayed in its place.

  [The reason why you have to go through the process more than once is because the driver for several drivers Creative SoundBlaster Recon files could be on the hard drive.] When a Creative SoundBlaster Recon driver is deleted, the following is installed if Windows can locate files. Windows installs the generic driver that after all the Creative SoundBlaster Recon files were deleted.]

  ============================================================================

  If you do not hear audio through the headphone jack to listen with a driver, then it is more likely to be a hardware problem.

• Satellite Pro A60 - HARD drive not detected by BIOS

  Hi all!
  I received a Pro (PSA65E) Satellite A60 for free... because it has a bug! But I want to fix it and use it.
  Problem is that the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS. Strange enough, it is possible to format during the initial phase of an installation of the OS from scratch (I tried with Win XP and Win 2000), but facilities do not proceed any further because it won't start HD. If I try to install a time shild, he can't find some data already present in the HD and gives warnongs... which means that it is also possible to write to the disk.
  The BIOS screen shows: no drive.
  CD-ROM drive is OK, shown as secondary.
  I also look in the forums to nothing does not.
  Actions taken so far:
  * flashed the BIOS, now at version 1.90
  * Replaced the original HD (Toshiba, 40 GB) known to be good, by another more small (Toshiba, 30 GB)
  * Tried to remove the drive CD and checked BIOS recognizes, it has been removed and recognized it even when delivered. The same manoeuvre with the HD does not change the BIOS screen: he says still 'no drive '.
  * Tried with the BACK of Partition Magic version: it says "no disk found. Same thing with the backup came with the PC disks.
  Tried other stuff found in Fora them: remove all the power sorce, let the PC for a few minutes... open and checked for visible problems in the area of the disc HARD and so on.
  Any suggestion would be appreciated!

  Thank you

• Alienware 51 R2 graphics card

  I played Skyrim on my Alienware PC, I used two cards GTX 970 with 4 GB of VRAM. Suddenly, my screen becomes orange solid, and I can't even switch programs or make appear the Task Manager. I have to manually press the power button to turn off, but when he turns on, both of my GPU sensors are not displayed, and are my graphics cards, so I run a game Launcher to detect my settings and it tells me that I'm with built in card.

  I tried to check my cards by Nvidia first, but my driver wasn't running (which is obvious as to why with hindsight). I just bought this system in December and my cards seem dead on me... trying to run system on Dell for my video card test returned a message 'complete failure '. What should I do?

  Hello

  Thanks for sharing to meet you. Would it be possible that he himself has been a problem with the driver. Either elsewhere let us know if you need more help later.

• Backup drive is not detected by USB-3 ports before the computer

  * Original title: 3 USB ports do not recognize the 3 TB drive; USB-2 ports do.

  3 USB ports do not recognize the 3 TB drive; USB-2 ports do.

  After working for about 1 year, my Seagate 3 TB backup drive is no longer recognized by the operating system.

  The drive is connected to a USB port "SS" (i.e. USB3) port on the front of the computer.

  During the boot UEFI confirms the existence of the impulse, but Win 7 (64) does not work.

  When it is attached to a USB-2 port the drive works perfectly, but takes forever to my backup system.

  I went through the procedure to connect to other ports 'SS', but the OS will still not

  recognize the drive.

  I would appreciate any advice.

• Drive external DRIVE not detected (2 PCs), after turning off the PC during the error checking

  I ran properties/tools/error-check on a (regularly used to back up this PC XP) external HARD drive. After 2 days, error checking was still running and not even 1/3 way 4th Phase but I need PC. It was not possible to stop "Error Check" from the dialog box then I tried Task Manager/Applications, which said that nothing worked, so I turned off the PC.

  When I restarted the PC, external HARD disk was not in my computer. Control Panel of configuration/addition does not see it no more. However, when I plug / unplug the station. HDD USB cable, the computer makes a noise and is also recognized in "Device safely Shut Down" as a USB storage device mass (but no drive letter). I tried to start/run/Cmd/Diskpart/List Disk and it is not listed.

  NB. I checked the post. HARD drive on a Linux PC, which also does not detect not, then it is certainly the post. Drive HARD, not the XP PC.

  Can offer you any advice?

  Hello

  · What is the number and the model of the hard drive?

  As you mentioned that the issue isn't with the operating system but with the drive hard, for better support I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the hard drive.

  You can also get in touch with any local technician who can help you with the same.
