  • My CD/DVD drive will not appear in the Device Manager, but present in the BIOS.

    DevCon didn't find it. It will not open even if I don't get to Device Manager and check for changes to the system. I deleted the registry entries upper and lower limit. Any other suggestions? For additional emphasis, he does not show even in the Manager of devices so I cannot restore or reinstall the drivers from there. It might also help that I use Vista Home Premium on a Compaq Presario F755us.

    Hello

    (1) does the BIOS see the main hard disk drive or a secondary hard drive?

    (2) remember to make changes to the computer before the show?

    You know may not be not that most systems are set to show only the splash screen. If you go into the BIOS Setup, it should show the disks that have been detected on two primary and secondary IDE channels.

    Note: the basic procedure to change the setting of the disk controller is to restart your computer and enter the system BIOS. The most common method is to press F2 to enter Setup, (another PC may use a different key). On the BIOS screen, find the setting that offers the AHCI, ATA or IDE and RAID. If the parameter is set to AHCI, change the setting to ATA. Restart the PC on the Windows installation disc

    Warning: Incorrect settings in the system BIOS can cause your PC function incorrectly. If you are not familiar with the configuration of the BIOS of the system, you must contact the PC manufacturer for assistance.

    Hello

    I can't use my wireless internet connection. The connection to the LAN works fine when connected via a cable.
    I have read all related topics to make sure that I'm not repeating a problem already solved, but I can't figure out the problem.

    The connection in the status bar indicator displays no network available.

    The wireless light on the front of the laptop does not illuminate.

    FN + F8 does nothing (even after delivered to zero cards flash with package etc.) 8191SE map does not show in the Device Manager and tried to add manually without success.

    I installed the last card wireless driver specific to the 8191SE yet once but nothing.

    I also removed the card and re-sitting there but still nothing shows in the dev Manager.

    I've also updated my BIOS and made sure the wireless is turned on.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!!

    Do the last ultimate test: install original recovery image that you got with the functionality of your laptop and check.
    If the material is OK that should be listed in Device Manager after installing the driver on the right.

    Any help will be much appreciated

    Hi EMH.

    You will need to install the Chipset Drivers first and later network adapter drivers. The IP address that you have ping is the local host and works, even when there is no network card detected.

  • Why my DVD player will not see the disc of Windows 7 Installation?

    The TEAC DV-W58E DVD on my Dimension PC drive will play videos and games and will read and write data on DVD.

    Why he won't see the Windows 7 Installation disc that has delivered today? It's the only drive, that he has never read. He don't think that the drive is empty, sees just 0 used bytes, free 0 bytes.

    The drive is seen by the two other PCs but not one I want to install W7 on.

    My PC runs XP Professional and the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor test and is up-to-date with Windows Update and has the latest driver for the DVD drive.

    I can't install the new operating system unless I can get the PC to read the disc.

    Cause the most likely not to read the DVD, is that its firmware is too old.  Double layer and encryption more recent methods are old 1 x, 2 x and 4 x dvd drives cannot read 16 x media recorded.

    Windows 7 has some minimum requirements.

    Windows 8 adds a lot of SPECIFIC requirements as NX Bit is supported in the BIOS.

    If you want to run Windows 7 on your PC, here's what it takes:

    • 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x 86) or (x 64) 64-bit processor

    • 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit), this excludes most INTEL 815 chipset

      Pentium 3 systems.  512 Meg is MAX for the 815 chipset.

    • 16 GB of disk space available (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

    • DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver.

  • Registry is corrupted and my CD/DVD player will not load Windows recovery disc. How can I fix?

    I am posting this from my laptop.

    Whenever I try to start my office, I gives me the options to start windows normally, last good configuration, safe mode, etc. known. None of these work. Upstairs, he asked that I get my Windows restore disk, reboot and repair. Well, that works either, because I was not able to load ANY media on my computer for a while now. I don't know how it happened, but since I have never really used the CD for nothing, I paid little attention to her. Now, I'm screwed. I can do to fix this without having to replace anything?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You can borrow and use a Microsoft Retail or system builder OEM Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.

    Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    Then make a bootable USB key with it to reinstall the operating system (see method 2):

  • DVD player will not open

    I am running Windows Vista 64-bit with all maintenance applied.  My computer has two DVD RW drives.  When I push the eject button physical on the drive, the tray opens for a while and then quits.  If I select "eject" on the graphic display (Windows Explorer), the behavior is the same - the tray opens for a while and then quits.

    Here's the new readers.  I just replaced them, since the old disks had the same problem, and I assumed the old disks were somewhat defective.

    If I just start the update of the BIOS, the problem goes away - I push the physical eject button, and the drawer opens and stays that way.  For this reason, I guess that the problem is not the faulty discs, but something that makes Windows.

    Hello

    It's my general troubleshooting Guide for problems of CD/DVD, and maybe it will help you with this unusual problem.

    Step 1: Please make all underneath the same if you've done it before as it's often the total of the process which
    solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

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

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). Therefore, it is not unusual for 1 or 2 rooms with not so work that others do it properly.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are some registry entries
    that the troubleshooter does not, and those who "could" be the cause.

    Check with your system manufacturer Maker and device for possible firmware updates and the good
    Your player registry entries.

    Here are the keys in my opinion, are those in question - for the reader of CD/DVD subkeys of course that he will be
    other subkeys in these keys. Be sure to ask specific keys involved as well as the parameters.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  • DVD Player Will NOT force him to leave

    Hi Paul

    Your message is very short and you don t provide all the details, but I will try to provide the answer to a problem.
    First of all, this looks like a hardware problem. I mean the lens of the drive cannot calibrate in the right position and would have problems.
    In this case the player would not be able to manage different CDs or DVDs.

    But first, you should try this
    Access to the registry and try to remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    After this withdrawal, restart the computer.

    I read that this accelerated procedure to solve the different CD/DVD drive problem.

    But if you will not be successful then a hardware problem is possible and only a replacement of drives could help.
