• Satellite M30x + Win7: DVD not detected by the CD/DVD drive

  Hello

  I use a M30x since 2004 with its CD/DVD drive * a S mat. DVD-RAM UJ-831
  When I was with Windows XP, I have never had problems to read or write on CD, CD - R, DVD, DVD - R or DVD - RW. But recently I installed windows seven, and since that day the drive won't recognize the DVD. I can still read and burn CDs and CD - R. I'm burning the same Virgin DVD-+ R/RW as before, but the drive won't detect them. Those I have already burn are not detected or the other.
  My computer says that the CD/DVD drive work properly and drivers are up to date.
  I tried to clean the lens, but nothing has changed. And I tried to reinstall the drivers, but I could not found for windows seven.

  Thanks for the help.

• Can not detect a CD or DVD drive

  I got my dell dimension 3000, a few years ago. My roommate about it and started to download a lot of who knows what. Thus, he got a virus. I cleaned up and then one day my DVD player no longer works. My CD drive still worked at this point in time. So last year, I bought a new DVD player to install in it. I then open it and pull my old one. And do what you know. Now it cannot detect my CD player either. And my new DVD is just as useless. So I put in the old DVD player, thinking that my CD player would work once again out of luck. But now I get an error message everytime I turn on my computer, saying: he can't start the CD player, because it is not installed. I got tired to see this message, so I asked the Bios not to try to read the disc whenever it turns on. Is there someone who can show me in the right direction to get this working? I just used a second computer and make a network connection to a Cd drive to formal and reinstall windows Xp. My CD and DVD drives are still not being displayed. I couldn't drive resource of work either because I couldn't remember how to make this connection network player again. So I put the CD on my external hard drive and tried to use it this way, but it did not really work. Some of the things just turned into shortcuts.

  
  

• "no audio device not detected" with the other oddities

  I'm a form of error message 'no audio device detected' each time than trying to use a program with sound.  ITunes, for example, says "Itunes has detected a problem with your sound configuration."  No sound works on the computer at all.  I have a dell Inspiron E1505 with I think it's the integrated audio system.  I tried to reinstall the drivers and that sound showcases are activated and similar these fixes.  Another oddity: sometimes my laptop speakers do weird sounds like it is a kind of bad connection inside, but I opened the computer to check and nothing seems to be wrong.  In addition, once a week ago, I turned on the computer and everything works fine until I closed the computer and opened again to find nothing works again.  Ideas?

  If the drive works properly in Windows, it seems to be related to your startup disk. I put t know which drive you are trying to boot from, but you should try another. Maybe it s scratched or something else in order to test another.

• The CD/DVD drive in my laptop is missing or not detected by my Acer Aspire 4520?

  A while ago my laptop Acer fell and the CD/DVD drive pulled after its fall. I thought for sure that it was broken and my laptop. Fortunately it seems not that this was the case and after that put in does what it normally would, the green light would flash and it seemed to work again. However, I never thought not to test with a DVD or CD to see if it actually worked. Is that recently that I started to use CD for games and other and I found the driver to read the discs, but nothing happened thereafter.

  Well for some time now, I tried to find a solution to my problem. The driver seems to work, but when it comes to playing the discs it do anything more. Some of my other programs such as Windows Media Player saying that my laptop is missing the driver CD/DVD. I also went to the menu of F2 from the laptop to the startup and after looking around, I find that there is no entry for the CD/DVD drive and that the entry is empty. I'm not sure why my laptop can't detect the drive. I tried many things such as the Microsoft Fix It, but ends up giving me an error saying that some components are not well read or something similar to that.
  Any help is greatly appreciated and if there is anything that I can provide for any further help I will do it gladly.
  I should also mention that the CD/DVD does not appear in Device Manager.

  Hi Emmanuel,.

   
  It's a hardware problem, your CD/DVD drive is not detected by your computer. I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.
   
  Method 1: Check if your CD/DVD drive is detected in BIOS Basic Input Output System ().
  
  IMPORTANT: BIOS change / oxide of additional metal (CMOS) semiconductor parameters incorrectly can causeserious 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.
   
  Method 2: Follow the steps in the link and check if that helps.

• Update SP2 now the CD/DVD Drive not detected!

  So I tried to understand since Monday what is happening with my burner - I ran Microsoft Fixit and he said that the CD/DVD drive is not detected and for updating the drivers - I looked for drivers but have not had the best of the conclusions of the chance that I need - I do some updates and the disk worked for about 10 minutes then quit.

  I just found the right now that my computer upgraded to SP2 Sunday - it's when all these issues have started...

  Any help is appreciated!

• HARD drive not detected in the BIOS on Satellite A215

  Hi all

  I could use to solve this problem: bought this laptop computer without a disk of the auction. Installed again 2.5 inches HDD SATA 250 GB, which was not detected in BIOS and also not detected when using a MS Vista installation disc. When trying to install Vista, get a message no drive seen HARD and demand for pilots.
  I flashed the BIOS with version (2.0) of lates without problem through the CD drive, but still no detection of HARD drive.

  The drive partitioned and formatted NTFS without problem by using another computer and USB SATA adapter using the command line method. Just for additional verification, I went on the new HARD drive to an extra 2.5 "SATA HDD used for backups, but that the HARD drive has also not been detected.

  It is not a "compatibility" option in CMOS to select SATA or Auto, etc..
  There is not a second HDD, so this isn't a question of slave/primary. There are no jumpers on the new HARD drive.
  Set the CMOS settings 'by default' does not solve the problem.

  The SATA connectors on the HARD drive and laptop computer are in perfect condition.
  Also, the drive is not detected on the laptop connected via USB to SATA Adapter, but of course there is no OS installed to support this connection.

  In any case, I just can't come up with any more ideas to try.
  Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

  Best,
  Glenn

  Hello

  The BIOS should recognize the HARD disk even if the SATA mode would be compatible or AHCI. This should not affect the recognition of the HARD drive.

  You said that you have tested the condition of the HARD drive and it's ok, so I guess that it s no disc HARD question.
  Hmm, you could try to format the HARD drive once more and then connect the portable computer HARD drive.

  Another idea: Remove/Disconnect the CD/DVD drive and then connect the HARD drive to the SATA connector.
  If it does not, then I recommend to test another HARD drive, otherwise if the new HARD drive would not work, then a SATA controller may be defective.

• After dismantling Satellite A60 cannot detect the CD/DVD drive

  Hello

  I opened my laptop to clean-up and it was the first time that I never opened a laptop. Messed up at the opening of the cd/dvd drive.
  Instead of just pulling out, I started its opening screw but quickly realized that this is not the right way. So I took it out. Rest of the disassembly procedure went well and I assembled it back but he little silver r 2 bands and a small source, which I'm sure that belongs to the CD player and I couldn't adapt it.
  And I don't know how it fits.
  The computer does not detect the drive. Although I can open it by clicking on the Open button, then he hang out by sharp object. (The light will blink showing the power exists in)

  The second thing is the microphone. I've never used until last week, but my voice is going through. The system does not detect any microphone.

  Help appreciated

  Hello

  On this path, it is not easy to say what is the problem with CD/DVD player. Are there signs of the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager or the drive is not displayed in Windows Explorer?

  How did you test mic? Try it with the tape recorder for windows. So you can test the functionality of the mic on the easiest way.

  Hello mike salinas.

  1. you have any third-party burning software installed on your computer?

  2. have you checked if the external CD drive works on another computer?

  I suggest that you check if your internal CD-ROM drive is detected in the BIOS.

  Usually, you must press a key (for example, F2, F12, DEL, ESC) or a key combination whenever you turn on your computer, but before I get to the BIOS to start Windows. Check to see if there is the CD/DVD drive in the BIOS.

  You can see the article for more information about the BIOS:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

  Regarding the external CD/DVD drive, I suggest you see if it works on another computer.

  Thank you

• The CD/DVD drive malfunction: one missing, the other does not work

  My HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop running Vista, came with a CD/DVD drive that appeared as a reader of CD (e) and (f) HD DVD player, with the hard drive and windows repair partition C: and D:.  There, the E: drive seemed to have disappeared, and it is the reader who would access it when I put a CD to read from.  The HD player never worked to this end and of course now that I only have the "F:" drive, and it tells me to insert a disc, despite the fact that there is a disc in there.  And I have no idea of what I did.

  I right click on the HD drive properties and go to the Hardware tab.  WDC (Buncha numbers) ATA device is listed as type of hard drives, and UTIHAX (even numbers) SCSI CdRom Device is listed as a DVD/CD-ROM drives drive (Yes, with the ').  Both work properly, according to the properties of the device.

  I tried to disable and re-enable the it.  I tried to uninstall and allow the pilot to resettle.  Nothing doin ' sofar, so I was wondering if any of you have any other ideas I could try.

  I'd love to hear them!  Let me know what you need.

  Hello

  Well you have studied the issues pretty well. Could be material.

  You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
  Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
  correctly.

  A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

  CD have a tolerance + - and your must read on the edge outside these tolerances of discs.
  They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

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

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
  Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
  RESTART 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 coward
  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
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

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

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  You can probably find more info here and maybe even the exact registry for your CD/DVD settings
  drive from someone with the same model.
