  HELP PLZ

  Hello

  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 check the cables
  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 system manufacturer
  and the manufacturer of the 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}

• DVD/CD driver does not properly, the discs are not read.

  I tried different discs and none are read which is very annoying, because I can not install my new printer! When I checked the driver, the following message is displayed:

  Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

  Click on 'Search for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.

  I click for solutions and he's looking for a few seconds and then nothing happens. I tried it 3 days ago and still today, but it still does not work, can I do?

  Thanks in advance for any help

  Hello

  19 code means there is a driver conflict such as two devices attempt to use the same resources.

  Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
  the question.

  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.

  Normally the above will solve this problem otherwise working your way down through them, even if you did
  them before.

• Equium A200 - CD/DVD drive is not detected

  I can't open any CD/DVD disc. The drive is not detected.
  When checked in the management system, he demonstrated, the drivers are missing or corrupted.

  How do I download the drivers? Or is there another solution?
  My model number is PSAF5E
  Serial number is YT144538Q
  And the CD/DVD device is POLE * DVD / RAM UJ-850 s ATA device

  Hello!

  T, you can download or reinstall the CD/DVD driver because it s a part of the OS (operating system).

  It would be interesting if the BIOS can detect the drive. Please check this box.

  It would also be interesting if you have an error as the #19 error message. This is known and a search around the forum.

  Good bye

• CD/DVD drive is not detected.

  For some reason my CD/DVD drive is more functional.  I can't even eject the disc that is in it and it does not recognize.  I have searched for corrections and so far all I've done was to remove the filter lower and upper filters in the registry.  I'll try to uninstall and reinstall this drive, but I can't even find on device manager

  Any help would be appreciated... Thank you!

  Here is the solution I mentioned earlier. Good luck and thank you Greg!

  I thought I had posted the solution.  The upper and lower filters need to be refreshed.  Here is a solution I found on the Adobe forums. http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/402/kb402306.html

  Refresh the CD and DVD drivers list in the Windows registry.

  Warning: The registry contains information on the system that are critical to your computer and applications. Before editing the registry, be sure to make a backup of it. Adobe does not provide support for problems that result from incorrectly modifying the registry. Adobe strongly recommends that you have experience editing system files before you modify the registry. For more information on the Windows Registry Editor, see the Windows documentation or contact Microsoft Technical Support.

  To refresh the CD and DVD drivers list in the Windows registry:

  Important: After you refresh the list of drivers in the Windows registry, you may need to reinstall any other CD or DVD on your computer to write applications. If you restart Windows after this procedure and other burning CD or DVD applications do not recognize the CD or DVD drive, and then reinstall those applications.

  1. Uninstall your Adobe application.
  2. Open the Registry Editor:
     • On Windows 2000 and XP: click Start > run. Type regedit in the box text open, and then click OK.
     • On Windows Vista: Click Start. Type regedit in the search text box, and then press ENTER.
  3. In the left pane of the registry editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class and select the {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} key, which appears as a folder.
  4. Select file > export (Windows XP and Vista) or registry > export a file from the registry (Windows 2000).
  5. In the export registry file dialog box, select the branch selected under export range, name the file (for example, CDDVDkey.reg) and click Save to save the file to the desktop.
  6. In the Panel to the right of the registry editor, select the LowerFilters line, and then choose the editing command > delete. Click Yes in the dialog box confirm deleting key.
  7. Select the UpperFilters line, and then choose the editing command > delete. Click Yes in the dialog box confirm deleting key.
  8. Close the registry editor.
  9. Open the Device Manager:
     • On Windows 2000 and XP: click Start > Control Panel. Double-click the system icon, click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
     • On Windows Vista: Click Start > Control Panel, double-click System, and then click Device Manager in the task pane.
  10. Click on the symbol more then to CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives.
  11. For each listed DVD-ROM or CD-ROM drive, select the icon then choose Action > uninstall.
  12. Restart Windows.
  13. Windows will automatically detect and reinstall your CD-ROM or DVD - ROM drives. You can check that the drives are installed in the device (see step 9) Manager. If the drives are not present, open Device Manager and choose Actions > Scan for hardware changes.
  14. Reinstall your Adobe application.
  15. Restart Windows.

  Important: If this solution doesn't solve the problem with the application you reinstalled, then you must restore the CD and DVD drivers list in the Windows registry.

  To restore the exported CD and DVD drivers list:

  1. Double-click the registry key that you exported.
  2. Close the registry editor.

  3. Restart Windows.

• DVD drive does not detect DVD satellite 1900-303

  My CD-RW/DVD drive refuses to read DVDs, acting as if there is no disc in the drive, no matter what I try. I have not used the machine regularly in a while and just starting to discover this.

  It also has a problem with burning discs, if it is of no interest. I bought a lens cleaner, but it won't work because the laptop still does not recognize the disc. Also, I've never fiddled with the control of the region and have already tried reinstalling the driver, but to no avail.

  It's a S1900-303, the number of model PS192E-00G1N-EN.
  Any help that anyone can give is much appreciated, it's really annoying.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello guys

  First of all if there are problems with burning CD or DVD, you will need to test different CD or DVD. Not all CD or DVD is compatible and can be used in the drive.
  That's why check different CD/DVD from different manufacturers.

  But if the drive is not able to burn or play a CD/DVD, so I assume that the reader has a malfunction and only the replacement of the device could help.

  @Judith: unit you seems to be new and the guarantee must cover replacing the drive.
  But before you contact the ASP in your country, check the different media.
  In the user manual a list with compatible and tested the CD and the DVD.

• My cd/dvd drive is not detected.

  CDDVD DRIVE IS NOT DETECTED

  A driver (service) for this device has been disabled.  Another driver can provide this functionality. (Code 32).

  Driver name: TSTTCORP CDDVDW TS-L633F

  Depending on the operating system, try following the steps under "Windows 7 or Windows Vista" or "Windows XP" in the MS KB article:

  These measures, to remove the UpperFilters and LowerFilters, values if they exist, in the registry key named can help.

• 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.

• HP Pavilion desktop computer - 550-a114: drive is not reading the disc

  When I put a disc in the CD/DVD drive, it runs but nothing else happens.

  Also, I'm new to Windows 10.  Why can I not see the DVD drive from the list of products covered by this PC?

  Thanks for trying to help.  Online tech had fixed.  The plug goes from the drive to the motherboard had dislocation (in this way right out of the box store).  I had to open the tower and plug it back together and now it works fine.

• CD/DVD drive does not read the newspapers.

  A blank 'CD' message appears when a DVD + R disc is inserted (IE a disc created images or slide show)

  First of all, what version of Windows®, the edition and service pack level is your system running?

  Second, to describe the material in question, please?
  What is the manufacturer and model of the optical drive?
  What is the manufacturer and model of your system so excited?
  What is the manufacturer and model of the motherboard if it is not packed?

  Finally and most importantly, please read: KB555375 - how to ask a question.

  The manufacturer of the drive and the model is important because there are scanners which were manufactured until the latest optical media definitions were defined.  Many of these same readers have updated firmware that will allow them to recognize several types of media.  If your system is shipped with the disk in it, package manager can have the firmware update on their support site.  If not supplied in a system, you can go to the optical drive manufacturer support web site to search for updates to the firmware.  (Often easier said than done.  A search engine may be involved...)  There may be other material considerations, that's why we ask for the manufacturer of motherboard and model or a system.

• DVD drive can not read some discs

  So I have scowered the Internet trying to find an answer to my problem, but everyone always seems to have the same problem except theirs is slightly different so their solutions don't work for me.

  My problem is that my DVD drive (f) works perfectly fine except when I put the CD - RW that I used to save files to my old Toshiba laptop, my laptop (also a Toshiba) seems to ignore my CD drive (d), but which has never really bothered before.

  So my DVD player works perfectly fine for other CD or DVD that I put in, it's only the CD that I used on my old laptop. When I put one in, I can hear it trying to read the CD, then it's just a few stops, when I double click to open the drive, it just comes up with a message saying "Please insert a disc into drive F:."

  The CD works perfectly well on my dads, which is also a Vista laptop so I do not understand why mine doesn't seem to like their reading.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated I need the contents of the CD to my university work.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  CD have a tolerance + - and your must read on the edge out of the tolerance of these discs. They can be given
  However, it is generally more economical to replace the disk that can or mentioned read those.

  Several good info here:

• 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.
