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 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.

CD/DVD units
http://www.myce.com/storage/

Use DevManView to locate the CD/DVD in the registry (be careful and do a prior Restore Point)
nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

DevManView - free - an alternative to the standard Windows Device Manager, which displays all the
devices and their properties in flat table, instead of the tree viewer

  • Treo 800w not found in Device Manager and does not connect to ActiveSync

    I just got my Treo 800w and I have ActiveSync it once.  After that, I had a lot of trouble trying to get activesync to say that it was connected to the computer.  After doing some research on Google and help forums looking around, I discovered that the Treo should appear in my device manager when you are connected to the computer.  I went to my device manager and of course, it wasn't there.  After a lot of time trying to make it work, I found that the best thing to do is remove the battery and plug it in again.  Then the computer will find again.

    However, I also learned what was causing my problem and I don't know if it's a windows or a problem of palm, but it is a question.  If you connect a Treo 800w on a WinXP (I don't have Vista so I don't know if this problem exists) and even if you touch it connected the power button on all Windows POPs a message saying a USB device has malfunctioned and will cease to recognize the device.  I then told my wife (the main user of the Treo) to never touch the power button and even less the Treo at all while it is plugged into the computer.

    If this question has already been posted... I'm sorry that I'm not looking for it...

    If you read my entire post it says I already found the solution.  Try all the things you listed didn't work for my problem.  I write only because I believe that it is a bug/problem with palm or windows and the device.  Take the battery, put the battery back in, and reconnect the unit is the only thing that works.

    I also tried to uninstall ActiveSync, reboot, install ActiveSync and the battery... it works too, but it's much faster to just remove the battery then put it back and reconnect the device.

    To answer your other question on ActiveSync Yes, I've got 4.5.

I can not go on my computer and actually click on my blackberry.

    I have windows vista and the software Manager for the device that I use is that I received in the box. 4.1

    I'm also using AT & T please help.

    All I want to do is to be able to connect to my computer and download themes and all I want the phone. But it does not work

    Jsanders thanks for your help, but I managed to understand! I got the Desktop Manager 4.1 version so I downloaded and installed to 4.7. That fixed my connection problem. And while I was home I decided to take the update of the software 4.5 versio and which is installed on the phone right now. I backed up all of my information and everything.

    I took risks and went with my instinct. And I fooled with driver vista settings. So far, everything is smooth.

    I used to mod motorola phones so I had sort of an idea of what to do initially. But the Blackberry intimidates me so. Haha!

  • Hard drive shows up in Device Manager, but not in 'my computer '.

    I have a Samsung HD103UI SATA hard drive in a dual docking station Thermaltake Black Widow hard drive. I connected it to my laptop via a USB port. It appears in Device Manager and says it's working properly. It however does not appear in my computer. I go to disk management and presents itself, he says "Dynamic Disk 1, invalid. If I right click on the drive, it asks if I want to convert it to base, but if I do that I will lose my data. I hooked this same configuration of my XP machine and it worked fine, no problem. How can I fix without basic conversion and how do I get it to appear in my computer?

    End to this problem, that I had the hard drive on the xp machine unload everything out of it and reformat the hard drive on my Vista laptop. I did once it worked fine and I can move it back from my xp and vista machine. It's the only way I could get this drive to work.

  • CD/DVD-ROM problems, drive not detected AND the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager

    I'm having serious problems here. My CD/DVD-ROM drive is not detected and will not answer. I can ONLY open the drawer at the beginning of my computer laptop startup. The drive does not appear in my computer and the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager. Therefore, the "uninstall/reinstall" is impossible if the computer behaves as it has never been this drive now or never. Previously, I was able to use it as there was no problem, but someday, it's simply not there.

    Hi twoiron,

    • You are able to access the other USB devices on the computer?

    See the link below and run the Fixit tool available, check if it helps.

    A computer that is running Windows XP cannot detect a USB, an Apple iPod flash drive or an external hard disk drive

    If him above fails tool Fixit check if the player is detected in disk management and has a drive letter assigned.

    To open disk management

    (a) from the start menu, click Run.

    (b) in the Open box, type diskmgmt.msc, and then click OK.

    If the drive is detected in disk management and the drive letter is missing, then assign a drive letter to the drive and check if that helps.

    Wireless worked very well.  The next day, it shows only an Ethernet with an x through it.  Wireless at all.  I went to Device Manager and it says I have no drivers.  Went to the Recovery Manager and found the Atheros AR9285 adapter drivers and tried to reinstall those.  Still, the device manager says I have no drivers for my wireless.  Presario CQ62

    Try this.

    Unplug the USB Belkin adapter and download the latest drivers for your laptop's internal wireless card. You can download it on your friend's cell phone, copy it to a USB stick, plug it into your Notepad launch the driver installation file and see if it installs.

  • Satellite 1100 - DVD disc in the missing device manager

    My DVD Rom drive seems to have disappeared from my device manager. System will not read or write any DVD/CD.

    How to restore the disc without using the recovery disk? (That won't work because the drive does not work)

    Hello

    First of all, you should check if the BIOS can recognize the CD/DVD drive.
    If the BIOS does not recognize the drive maybe the pin connection is loose or the disk is damaged.
    If you have experience in laptop computers, you can check the connection of the PIN. Try to remove the disc and then start Notepad. After close connect the player again in the Bay and start the unit.

    Check again if the drive appears in Device Manager. If he doesn t appear I guess that it s a hardware malfunction, and you need a new.

  • Webcam does not appear in Device Manager

    I have a model of portable pavilion G62-233NR windows 7 64-bit, with a built-in webcam.  YouC'm software was bundled with it and worked.  Now the webcam is not found by one of the video programs AE Skype, Youcam... etc...

    I also noticed that the webcam does not appear in Device Manager. I tell me that I have to reinstall a driver for it but do not know what driver to install. HP has the following availble drivers for my model but which?  If one of the pilots was labeled "webcam", the task would be easy. I hope because the driver is missing in Device Manager that has installed a driver will set missing cam... I'm worried because I don't see a driver named "webcam" in the list... but what else could the problem, how can I get the driver installed, if that's the problem.

  • No Apple USB driver in Windows 10 Device Manager

    Is there a way to retrieve the Apple USB driver in Windows 10 Device Manager.  I downloaded the iTunes 12.3.3 yesterday and now he is gone.

    I tried

    • plug into each of my Apple devices (iPod, iPad, iPhone, iPhone 4S 6)
    • restarting my computer
    • disabled my virus protection software
    • synchronization with different strings (some Apple, others not)
    • my devices restart and try again
    • Uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling
    • Uninstalling iTunes and goes back to and older version
    • make a Windows system to a restore point when I could synchronize my devices

    My main problem is that I need to sync my devices and iTunes does not detect them without the driver.  Windows can detect my devices and they appear in the file Explorer.  I am also able to get pictures and videos I've taken off the power unit and on my computer with no problems.

    Anything else I can try?  I'm out of ideas.  Thank you!

    This can help:

  • How can I ensure that I have usb2 working on pavilion dv8? It does not appear in Device Manager

    Hi all

    I'm trying to configure a USB external (interface audio) on my HP Pavilion DV8 1250ea. The device driver fails to install properly and is unable to detect that the device is connected (even if I hear the Ding-Dong, and he appears in the Manager of devices, but with an exclamation point).

    I went to the device manufacturer's support and they advised me that the problem is likely to be caused by my system doesn't support USB2. They also told me how can we test this hypothesis - I looked at the Device Manager and told me I'd see something like:

    However, mine is:

    http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/3236/nousb2.PNG

    See, no USB2!

    I just checked the section support and chipset installed udates and other things that sounded relevant - still no change. My system really not support USB2 - it has clearly stated in the specifications that the model does support. This seems to be the most likely reason why my audio interface does not work.
