I did a cover of big cleanup of a virus in my PC... knowing that I can't play a DVD

When I put the drive in the status bar.

Could you please tell me what I need to do

Thank you

Are there (exact) error messages/reports/numbers when the dvd fails?

See if the resolution of the problems of dvd helps - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows7/Open-the-Windows-Media-Player-DVD-troubleshooter

If not, look in the device (from Control Panel) Manager and make sure that your DVD drive is listed, active and functional.

  • HP CDDVDW TS - T633P SCSI CdRom - cannot read SOME DVD

    DVD Player cannot read some DVD.  Completed all the 8 steps in "Drive cannot read disks (Windows 7)" on the HP site.  A ran HP "Hardware Diagnostic Tools" (linear CD search Test"and it passes on some DVDs and returns"No Media"on the other.)  Very old CD "Office for WIndows 95" and a few new DVDs (HP Officejet 6500 has more) past, but more brand new DVD and DVD written on the same computer is not detected.   Those who lack of DVD also will not autorun on my PC.  These same DVD which failed on my PC is read fine on my old Windows XP laptop.

    Strongly suspect one slightly out of the drive of alignment that must be replaced.  Ideas before ordering a replacement?

    Hello

    Check the automatic run settings in the control panel. Ensure that the measures to be taken when optical media are inserted represent the media format type that you create.  You can check the box at the top to use AutoPlay for all media types, then select the action for the particular media format.  Be sure to save the changes.

    You can also consider using Imgburn to read and write to check some media to see if you actually have some hardware issues. ImgBurn will also appear to what types of media are acceptable for the optical drive.

    It is also possible that the media you use is of a lower quality.  I prefer the Verbatim. It cost more but I've never had a problem with Verbatim.

    If your PC is under warranty then contact HP support. HP support number is 800-474-6836 or 800-HPINVENT or online here.

  • Carpet * a UJ-830 cannot read/write DVDs on Equium L10

    Hi, I have a laptop Equium L10. My DVD RAM mast * a UJ 830 cannot read/write to DVD discs. But it can read and write CDs.
    I have installed the latest driver but no luck. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

    This problem appears since day one?

    I ask because it looks like a hardware malfunction, to me it seems that the lens can not calibrate properly and that's why the drive can read and write DVDs.
    What burning software do you use?
    For the most part a burning like Nero program provides an error message if the burning process failed

  • Portege M500 - cannot read overburned DVD + r

    Hi all

    running a Toshiba Portege M500, WXP SP2, the v3.30 BIOS Home
    Matsu * a DVD-RAM UJ-842 drive with firmware 1.01.

    My problem is that the drive will not read overburned DVD + r - reports "disk may be corrupted or using a format that is not compatible with windows."

    Discs read fine on desktop (Sony DRU-810 has, 1.0E firmware), IBM Thinkpad Combo drive, and sweep good PIE/PIF graphics. So I think it's a compatibility issue with the player on the Toshiba firmware. I rarely overburn by more than 30 MB, so there is a lot of writing on the left surface.

    Any chance there is an updated firmware that improves compatibility of the player on the Toshiba?

    See you soon,.
    C.

    Hello

    I put t know if the firmware update will help you but generally it s not the best idea to burn on the media.
    Drive hard internal don t support each CD or DVD and in my experience the reader on the portable internal lens is more sensitive than on external drives.

    In my opinion, you should try to burn data to DVD + R properly and not overburn

  • Cannot read the DVD with Windows Media Player

    Running WIndows Server 2008 R2.  Desktop experience is responsible.  In my view, that it includes Windows Media Player V12.

    Try to play the DVD.  The message "setting resolution".  Setting resolution does not help.

    Installed K-Lite Codec Pack full.  Get the same message on the resolution setting.  Uninstall K - Lite Codec Pack now I get ' WMP cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.

    I'm a novice and dangerous, so no "step-by-steps" would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi MarkMann,

  • Satellite A20-130: SD-R2412 cannot read that DVD burned in some optical drives

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite A20-130, running Windows XP and Ununtu Dapper in a double score. My 2nd laptop is not a Toshiba. When I burned the DVD (DVD + R) with my laptop Toshiba no and played against them in my Satellite everything has worked well.

    However, when I bought a new optical drive for my 2nd my Toshiba laptop suddenly stopped playing DVDs burned in this new optical disc (I was using exactly the same brand of disc and the same format - DVD + R). I tried the old DVD (those burned in the laptop before that material from the optical drive has been upgraded) and they can still read perfectly well.

    This problem applies to both Ubuntu and Windows XP. Computer support portable 2nd said that sounds like a problem of firmware with my Toshiba. I updated the driver for my optical drive Toshiba R2412 SD (which according to the manual of the leader, seems to fix a DVD-Ram compatibility issue). Now the reader occasionally reads some of the new DVDs burnt (after doing lots of noise and waiting for ages), but more often that not, I get an error message saying that the device cannot be read, because the format is wrong or the device needs to be formatted.

    This computer non-Toshiba laptop read DVD, it burns using the optical drive improved perfectly.

    Hello

    Satellite A20 is old enough laptop model, and after intensive use, it may be that the disc is more sensitive. If all this happens occasionally there no explanation just why this happens.

    I know it's pretty boring, but I don't see any magic solution. In the end, you should test with new disc.

  • Cannot read the DVD player.

    Hello

    I have a laptop Compaq Presario A900. Currently, the DVD player does not work properly. After reviewing the Device Manager, the DVD drive reports the following error: "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) ». I tried to uninstall the DVD device in the Device Manager and rebooted the computer. After that he tried to reinstall the device, I get the same error message. Any ideas on what needs to be changed in the registry to re - activate the DVD player?

    Thank you

    Hello Mike and thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, it still does not work properly.

    My laptop running Windows Vista and the product is of # A931NR.

    I ran and installed the VISTA MS Fix It utility, as you suggested. He filled the diagnoses and recommended to reinstall the CD/DVD driver. However, the reader does not always show upward under my computer and Device Manager still says "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) ».

    It seems to be a problem in the registry that prevents the CD/DVD drive to correctly seting is placed in the system.  You have any other suggestions? I really appreciate it.

  • cannot read CD / dvd

    Equip computer dvd nothing happens and cannot enforce.  just moved so had to have computer hooked up again

    If you open your dvd playing software, then navigate to the disc in your dvd player, can you manually to play?

    If it appears at all, then it could be the drive of dvd at fault.

    If it does not, then it's just the fact that it does not automatically open the software.

  • Error Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) Cannot read CD/DVD

    Original title: Acer laptop DVD drive missing

    Hello

    I have an Acer Aspire 5740 G computer laptop running Windows 7. When I tried to play a movie today, it did not work. The green light on the drive of CD flashed several times then stopped and all was silent. I opened my computer and saw that the CD/DVD drive wasn't listening it. I then opened by Device Manager and the two things under CD-ROM/DVD-ROM readers had a yellow triangle and an exclamation point on them.
    One thing has been called; SVI 2ZGTAB8HQ7G5 SCSI CdRom Device
    The other thing was called; TSST Corp CDDVDW TS-L633C
    I clicked on both and saw the message; "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) »
    The last time I used the CD player a burn a disc over a month. I used Microsoft Fix It but it says to remove the drive and plug it in somewhere else, and I can't really do this because it's the only drive on the laptop and I'm worried I might break if I go out there with force. Can someone help me? I would really appreciate it.

  • BDP-s360 cannot read a DVD forma software Sony Vegas

    I have a Sony bravia TV, a player of DVD Sony bdp-s360, the DNA Sony Vegas movie studio 11. I made a video in the Sony software and registered as a blu - ray (m2ts format) format. I have it engraved on a DVD and put the DVD in the Sony blu - ray player. The display shows ' data BD / data in local storage will be deleted "and I do not see how to get the DVD to play.

    Help, please!

    I understood that!

    There are 2 types of records produced by computers - video discs and data discs.  The Sony Blu - Ray player needs a video disc.  I used a free application called DVD Flick to take my video in the AVCHD format data file, and convert it to the format of the DVD player needs.  This includes creating a directory called "VIDEO_TS" and fitness of the data in particular file files that the DVD player can read.

    I think that the support of Sony should have known this, so I'm posting here for the future use of people who have the same problem.
