CD/DVD drive does not recognize discs.
Whenever I insert a disc, no prompt appears and nothing shows that there computer. I went to the Device Manager and there is no option for the CD/DVD drive, so I wonder if it has been deleted somehow. I'm just trying to install a program.
Hello
You probably need a computer store real (no leeks and glances at a BestBuy or other BigBox
stores) or system manufacturer support.

Satellite L50D-B - faulty DVD drive does not recognize discs
Bought 2 months ago. The reader agrees not the CD, DVD or anything like that.
The name of the drive does not appear on the disc and if you double click on the DVD drive icon (even if a disc is inserted) the drawer opens and says please insert a disk. I tried several discs are not the issue.So far I got technical support where I bought it.
They said to do a reinstall I did - with the full drive clean. I tried to update the drivers, but the computer insists on the fact that they are later. If I search my model number on the site of Toshiba driver support he gets rejected, and I have no access to (Toshiba) drivers.I checked a few other forums and tried the regedit fix, but which is also irrelevant. If no solution is found (and I've lost hours of my life on this subject) then this laptop is going back for a refund and I'll get one who will perform the simple task of playing a DVD.

Sorry to hear that you have such a stupid problem with your machine. On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
In my opinion you should not waste your time checking and search for some drivers who probably will not help at all.Reinstall the original operating system that you have with your machine and test functionality with the factory settings. If the result is the same contact your reseller or Toshiba service provider directly and ask for help. They can check ODD and Exchange if necessary.

Tecra M4 - DVD player does not recognize discs in Vista
Hello
After the installation of Vista my dvd player does not recognize discs!
No update XP! It was a clean install of Vista.I found several links on the upper filter and lower registry entries this entry does not exist in my registry under the CDROM class.
I tried the XP disk it works fine and recognizes all.
Drivers are installed correctly no problem in Device Manager is invited.So I have no idea how to run it, seems to be a Vista problem
Could someone help me? I am really frustrated to this topic
Thanks for your help
Maybe this helps:
-Remove the drive from Device Manager CD/DVD.
-Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
-Reboot the laptopBut what happens exactly? Which disks are not recognized?

My DVD drive does not recognize DVD game discs.
My NEC ND-4550-reader DVD - RW does not recognize DVD game discs.
He has no problem reading movie DVDs and music CDs or access data CD and DVD burnt with data on them.
I removed and let XP Reinstall the device and high-low filters removed the registry etc nothing works.
I made a copy of a DVD game on another PC and it is recognized and install my PC.
All DVD discs work very well on the other PC.
I am running Windows XP Professional with SP2.
MS Fixit controls indicate no problems.
This would be a matter of software protection?
All tried game DVDs are official records and not copies.
The NEC ND-4550 uses cdrom.sys as pilot.Finally, I replaced the drive for a new one (Pioneer DVR-S18L) and everything now works as it should.
So I suspect that it's a hardware problem and not one that can be resolved by any of the Windows settings. -

CD/DVD drive does not read discs on Equium A100
My cd/dvd drive does not read any discs be it, white, written or commercially written. It opens and closes and is light to show that he is working on. Device Manager indicates that the device is functioning properly.
Tried the update of drivers, no update available. Tried restoring the system back 1 day and 1 week and 1 month, then and still the problem cannot be corrected. When I put a cd/dvd in the drive and try to access it, it says: D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error.
Can someone help me I tried everything my friends and I can think, or is it better to send just to toshiba warranty.
If the solution proposed by James will not help, you should try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager.
After phone restart the operating system will recognize and initialize the disk again.

CD/DVD drive does not recognize the DVD media disc.
Greetings,
Had problems with my CD/DVD drive not being able to recognize that a DVDmovie disc is in the drive.
I tried to turn on/off, reinstalled the driver, update the driver, check if AutoPlay is enabled (currently set to invite me) and have used the Microsoft Automated Troubleshooting system which could not solve the problem.
I am able to burn data and audio files on CD/DVD very well, it will read the same types without problems. But whenever a DVDmovie disc is, it does not recognize, there is a disc in the drive, or Autoplay hit.
Also clean the laser lens with isopropyl alcohol.
Thoughts?
Honestly, I had not checked immediately after I cleaned the lens, but it works now. I am convinced that cleaning the lens resolved.
I had posted this, and then read somewhere else to clean the lens, has made, edited my post saying I had it done and then tried a DVD and it worked.

The CD/DVD drive does not read discs
Hi, I have a COMPAQ Presario CQ40 with optiarc DVD RW AD - 7561 ATA Device driver, recently the drive does not work properly. It can read and burn the disc, that I already used, but when it's a new (disc white) it does not read the disc. It has an error message "make sure that the disc uses a format windows recognizes. If the drive is not formatted, you must format it before you use it. "the disc is the format that would recognize the system. I tried to uninstall the drivers and reinstalled from the Device Manager, but nothing works, tried too much microsoft fixit, always the same. Hope that there is another work around here... Thank you...
Have you tried using other burning software?

New computer: DVD player does not recognize discs
I have this computer (HP Pavilion) about 3 months ago. It already came with windows 8 when I got it, is not a recent issue of download. When I put a game disc in the DVD drive for installation, it is yet to report an error, simply, it does not recognize the disc. I tried with a DVD film as well, and it's the same thing. I never used the drive before today and was super disappointed that it didn't work. New: what's more relative than all works do not, is that the system does not recognize the potential error.

No error msg when disk is inserted it is a usual thing, then stops and the little light remains yellow on. Which will be normally blinks then turns off normally. I removed and re-installed the disk drive, without effect. He uses this only on a few CDs. Now, not in my collection will not be recognized / reading and seem to me that the drive just hangs. When I check the drive, it says to insert the CD. Ugh someone? Thank you
Use a CD/DVD cleaning disc to clean your car. If it still not work properly while the reader probably does not and must be replaced.

CD DVD drive does not recognize DVD
I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5202 in a 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 environment, recently, my DVD burner has the following problems:
(1) it could read/burn in a CDROM which is equal to or less than the capacity of 700 MB.
(2) the player can get out of its case, it works properly when I press the button, or you click "Eject" in Windows Explorer.
(3) he could not recognize 4.7 GB DVDs, this pop-up message "Please insert a disc into drive D".
(4) when I insert a new blank DVD 4.7 GB disc in the drive, it will appear a dialog as messages below:
DVD RW Drive (D :)
(1) burn files to disc
(2) burn a DVD video disc.
Select either (1) or (2), it can only fill 90% and it has stopped working.
I tried to solve the problem of DVD writer is not installed in the Device Manager and restart the computer, it can then read for a few hours, when I tried to burn a DVD, it has stopped working. I uninstalled DVD burner and restart again, this time couldn't even read.
I tried to download the latest driver for DVD without a bit of luck, can anyone help?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My DVD drive does not recognize DVD-R/DVD-RW Virgin
Hello! My computer model laptop lenovo's G460
and here's my name of dvd drive: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GT30N. I use Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 bit.
ROM cannot read any DVD-r Virgin it can actually work; CDs and DVDs (movies, music, etc.), detect and writes CD Virgin-Rs., but not a DVD-r virgins. It cannot detect even when I inserted the CD in the Republic of Montenegro.
Any ideas what to do? Or what is the problem?
a last step if this does not work, try to run windows own installation because some applications may affect your device.
Otherwise, contact lenovo support
