• Re: CD/DVD drive does not seem to start the DVD in Satellite P750

  My CD/DVD drive does not seem to start DVD, it runs and runs and the only way I can run a DVD (i.e. film) is using Windows Media Center, while the software to install must be enabled in Windows Explorer.

  Anyone?

  Help, please.
  Thank you!

  Have you tried to change AutoPlay settings?

• I bought a laptop mini dell who doesn't have a cd/dvd drive and would like to get my photos from my camera on it.

  Computer: Dell Inspiron mini 910

  Camera: Vivitar ViviCam X 024 digital camera

  Program: Vivitar experience Image Manager software

  I've tried connecting the camera to the computer, downloading the software directly from vivitar.com (invalid email supposedly), control panel addition and the removal of the cameras (not on the list of cameras), ect... I am now at a loss what to try next so if someone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

  The camera uses media that can be deleted?  If so, download a USB drive for this type of media nd it allows to read the media when you remove it from the camera.

  Regarding the "no CD/DVD drive" - If you really think you want - buy one - USB external.

  If you have a ViviCam X 024 and looking at technical specifications and web Vivitar support page you can see the Manual of the camera that shows what you can / should use a SD memory card.  With a decent USB drive for the type of card, you should be able to remove it and read it as any external USB drive.

  Well, to tell you the truth, however, the manual (page 48) makes it sound like the camera is - somehow - just a SD card reader.

  Transfer media from my camera to my computer manually (using Windows)

  1. use the USB cable that came with your camera to connect your device to your computer.
  2. a window appears with a list of options, select open folder to view files, and click OK.
  3. open the DCIM folder and the folder to view multimedia files.
  4. Select support and copy the files in this folder to your computer. Optionally, select the files and choose copy from the Edit menu. Select a folder, then choose Paste from the Edit menu.
  5. We recommend that you copy the images in the photos / folder my pictures and videos in the videos / folder my videos.
  6. do not disconnect the cable during transfer. This will cancel the file transfer on their way to your computer.

  You are keen on the CD/DVD drive for installation of some software?  You could make the CD in ISO image and install a program that would go the ISO image on your mini.  Or better yet, ise some external USB device connected to another computer to copy the contents of the CD to a folder on the said device and then transfer it to the mini.

  Hi Rob

  It is quite complicated to explain how to remove the optical disk drive. Before you do this, you must remove the top cover. The optical disk drive is fixed with two screws. When you remove the two of them, you can get out the ODD of its Bay.

  Sorry, but without exact maintenance manuals is not easy to explain this. It is quite complicated to disassemble the procedure for this model of laptop. Do you have already removed your Satellite Pro?

• DVD drive internal unrecognized in Wake UP

  Inspiron 17R (beginning 2013) during sleep, the internal DVD drive is not recognized in starting up. Once I hard reboot the laptop, it is recognized. It is configured with the DVD +/-RW 8 X 9.5, Serial ATA, TRAY, drive TOSHIBA SAMSUNG STORAGE TECHNOLOGY. When I try to run the diagnostic online player is not detected, it seems that it has been ignored in the bios. I've recently updated the bios to the most recent recommended. Any ideas what is happening here?

  There is no special configuration required to install an SSD more later. Just get the configuration of the disks you want to use with the SSD. Of course, with the installed SSD, a cache mSATA provides no benefit, then I wouldn't choose this option.

• CD/dvd drive does not work - it is recognized when the computer starts, and it is listed in the Device Manager?

  I am running Vista Home Premium on a laptop Compaq Presario F700. It is listed in the list of computers of readers, it is listed in Device Manager. The lites drive that the computer boots so I know it is detected. When you run itunes or media player the player does not open. When I push the drive button it will not open. It opens with a paperclip in the exit hole. It cannot read a CD or a DVD. None of the media players even recognize there is a disc in the drive. I tried to run fixit, but it would not drive either. I tried restoring from a previous backup, without change.

  Hello

  Check / settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 so watch the screen as it starts - place CD/DVD
  1st in the boot order (remember to put it at the time where the fact).

  Then put in a DVD to boot Windows and see if the driver works.

  If it doesn't then it's a hardware problem.

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

  If the drive has worked in the test above, that these can help:

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.

• pre installed dvd driver suddenly absent / start not in computer science or Helllllllppppppp Device Manager!

  I have a HP Pavilion laptop.  I turned on my computer to put on a cd, I was able to push the button to open and insert the disc. However the cd would not play. I got no error messages.  When I went to start - computer drive E: (dvd player) wasn't there.  I checked several forums and tried a mrfixit.  This solves the problem, until I rebooted my computer, my drive would disappear again.  I ran mrfixit again and so on.  Now Mrfixit will not fix it.

  My player does not appear little matter what I do, I can't.  I can not find uninstall, reinstall, or remove the filters that they...   I checked all my updates for windows and driver updates, I ran my hp health.  I've fussed and complained.  Can someone help me?

  I don't know the root cause, I do not remember any new download program.  I use Norton 360 and update daily. I have Vista 32 bit

  Run the command as admin sfc / scannow it says found corrupt files but unable to fix some of them.  I don't know if this would affect the dvd player.

  Thanks for the help

  Many files that SFC cannot resolve are not important. Probably best to go to the next and upcoming section

  put the command from below (copy and paste) in this box and her and then press ENTER.

  findstr/c: "[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt

  who creates the sfcdetails.txt file in the folder that you are in when you run it.

  You can read the newspaper/txt files easier if you right click on Notepad or Wordpad then RUN AS ADMIN - then

• CD-ROM error at the start after replacing the DVD drive - Qosmio F20-574

  OK, so I have a Toshiba Qosmio F20/574 and I am trying to replace the factory DVD player (TEAC DV-W28E) with a Liteon DS-8A1P (f/w CX12). With or without a DVD Im reader get a CD-ROM error at startup. The only time where what I don't get, is when I start with the factory DVD player.

  Here are the things I've tried...
  -Cleared CMOS memory
  -Remove the bezel to ensure his grip at bottom
  -l' utility EEPROM set the drive to slave.
  -tested the portable player in another
  -uninstalled the factory dvd player via the Device Manager and tried to boot with the new dvd drive

  Here are the things that I found bizarre...
  -in the BIOS (BIOS 1.30 ACP) under IO device, it shows the hard drive and cd, but it is not listed by name, his watch only the IRQ of the primary and secondary IDE controller (integrated drive HARD IDE primary (1F0H/IRQ14), CD-ROM (170 H/IRQ15) secondary IDE). This does not change, even if I start without a DVD player.
  -There is no update available for this laptop BIOS. It is a Toshiba of the Japan and the Ive tried using Qosmio F20 BIOS 1.40 to another region, but this does not work.
  -I can't find a firmware for the Liteon DS-8A1P (CX17) update

  I can't think of anything to try. I really need help! Any ideas?

  I'm afraid that you are using the optical disc drive not compatible and there is nothing you can do. Check it please s user guides document for your model of laptop and you will find a list of all compatible ratings.

• Qosmio F30 - how to get started using the external CD/DVD drive?

  Hello Mr President

  I have a Qosmio F30. My CD/DVD drive does not work. I have the USB CD/DVD drive, but I think that F30 does not support external USB CD/DVD drive to boot to the top.

  Please help me. Now, how can I boot Windows XP CD?

  At first, I must say that I really wonder why you do not have something to trade integrated optical drive. Qosmio F30 is not that old laptop and is perhaps the warranty still valid. You should check with the partner of service authorized in your country.

  For start with external peripheral is not so easy because the external drive doesn't recognize started upward. Theoretically you should either external ODD visible to your Qosmio. For older laptop, it is possible if you start Notepad in pilot mode and load BACK to BACK. After doing this you have access to the external hard drive and can start the installation.

  You can do this with your Qosmio laptop?

  Hello

  Most of the USB 2.0 DVD burners will be compatible XP (be sure to get a burner so you can make CD
  and DVDs and not just play).

  A very good source of information would be supported by the manufacturer of your system and their forums (if any).

  Another good source would be your local computer store or even a major retailer like Best Buy

• cannot start on the external dvd drive

  I have a powered hub that I have attached a DVD player/recorder to. The hub is also connected to my Dell coming Pro 8 5830. I can use this DVD player/recorder in 8.1 for Windows to burn a Macrium rescue disc. I was also able to play videos with the DVD recorder/player while being connected to my Dell Tablet.

  I want to be able to start in the DVD player, if ever, I have to use my Macrium rescue disc to restore a saved backup image.

  When I go into the bios to make sure that the DVD player is selected first, he does not appear in the list.

  How can I configure the startup Dell Tablet in the DVD player if it is not displayed in the list of the Bios boot?

  We could use the power of Dell + data dongle USB OTG or similar device for example from other manufacturers, to circumvent the problem of power?  Then, it is a question of modifying the BIOS to boot from the DVD drive, if possible.
