• CD/DVD drive not detected in 'my computer '.

  Ok.  That is the problem.  A few weeks ago, I couldn't find my CD/DVD device in 'my computer '.  I read the solution involving the modification of the registry.  Scary stuff, I know, but I did everything very carefully and removed the filters superiors and inferiors, and Wallah, it worked and my CD/DVD device appararurent again and I was able to open a CD and look at the files.  The same thing happened again, but when I look at the registry fix again he has no less and the top filter to remove.  I ran all kinds of diagnostic tools Microsoft Mr. Fix and after execution, gently, he finally tells me "the CD/DVD device not detected.  Well, DOH!  I already knew!  But how to fix it? I have a HP laptop with a build in the drive.  When I put a CD in the tray and close it I hear all the normal whirring etc of the currently playing disc, but nothing happens.  Absolutely nothing - a bit like these emails that promise miracles that if you pass them on to 10 people, absolutely nothing happens.  Please help - in non-technical terms please.  I am a user of the computer, not a grumpy, instructions must be simple.  Oh, I must add, after reading other topics of the forum, my tray works perfectly.  I can load and unload CDs.  Finally, my CD/DVD drive IS NOT doesn't appear in Device Manager if no suggestion re clicking on the disk or drive in Device Manager.  IT is NOT THERE.

  Hello

  You have loaded CD/DVD programs just before this started happening? Often those who will compete
  for resources that load themselves into memory and the interaction parts cause strange problems.

  Check with HP Support, their drivers and documentation online and ask in the forums known HP
  questions.

  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

  do it right.

• Code 39 CD/DVD drive not detected

  Hi, I had to reinstall Vista because my files were corrupted by using Microsoft e-mail support.  I tried to install Windows service pack 2, but it would not be installed. After repair corrupt Vista files and finally get service Pack2 installed, I have had to reinstall a software disc that came with my computer Dell. The cd/dvd drive makes noise but does not read the disc. I logged on the Dell support site and follow their recommendations without success. I have downloaded the recommended bios and firmware dvd, uninstalled Roxio Creator and dvd driver but the system goes on to say that the drive is not detected. Finally, I called Dell and, of course, only the equipment is under warranty and I can't afford to pay for the software support. My computer is 8 months old and I rarely use the dvd player. It worked fine before these repairs and upgrades. My system is Vista 64-bit with service pack 2. According to Device Manager, my dvd player is number model PLDS DVD +-RW DS - 8A3S. BTW, as part of my purchase last summer that I was sent disk to upgrade to Windows 7 for free. I didn't want to hassle with installation at the time, but after pass by all this... should I go ahead and upgrade to Windows 7 after I receive my dvd player work?

  Also check with your system manufacturer to see if there are any updated drivers for your DVD. Or
  even if there is 'old', you can reinstall. However, many use the default Windows drivers
  Some will be more special. Also check the website of the manufacturer of the car.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• CD/DVD drive not detected on the computer... Dell said to reinstall Vista

  I have a Vostro 1500 running Vista Basic. My CD/DVD not detected on my computer drive. I looked in Device Manager and there is a yellow alert. When I look at the properties of my drive, there is an error "this device cannot start. (Code 10) ». I ran the PSA and all tests passed. I wasn't able to install an updated driver because the device is not detected on my computer. It is listed in the BIOS.
  I called Dell support week last to try to understand the problem. After about 2 hours of doing the things I had already done including the installation of new drivers (drivers installed not because the system does not detect the drive), they decided to send me a new CD drive. I received it this morning and it's another brand than what I had before, but I don't think it's a problem. The new drive I received today does not work either. It has the same problem as the original drive. I contacted Dell support online today and after explaining my situation together again (what is the use for a no of cases when I explain the problem 5 times in any case?) is first sent to a Microsoft for Windows XP KB (I use Vista so it's of no use at all) and then told that my registry is corrupt and I need to reinstall Windows. I don't buy it, but I told the tech that I was willing to humor. So, here am I, there is no information on the Microsoft support site I can find related to this specific error code. There are a lot of XP, but like I said, it's of no use to me using Vista.  My patience is wearing very thin with this situation and Dell.
  Someone has any suggestions, advice or anything before I chuck the stupid thing out the window? =)

• Pavilion Slimline s5-1020: DVD drive not recognized in Device Manager

  My rarely used DVD player no longer works. Here are the things I have seen/made:
  -J' updated to Windows 10. It may or may not have stopped working before the update.
  -I update Windows automatically, and everything seems to be in order there.
  -The DVD seems to be operational, insofar as you can hear it turn when a disc is inserted.
  -Setup recognizes, and it is enabled; It is not at all in Device Manager or in the file Explorer.
  Based on the things I've tried, there are indications that it may be either a hardware or a software problem (or both?):
  
  SOFTWARE PROBLEM?
  I followed these as much as possible:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/desktop-CD-DVD-read-only/read-this-for-CD-DVD-drive-with-burning-Missin...
  
  -I got disconnected/reconnected the drive.
  -J' tried various DVD I knew to do.
  -I don't have to update the BIOS, given warnings.
  - Nor did I mess with registry filters.
  -J' tried to find a Microsoft Fixit solution, but the one referenced somewhere in these pages don't apply to this OS - I think it was for Win 7.  I tried MS Control Panel convenience stores, but none of them worked.
  So I can't say whether or not it is a software problem.
  
  HARDWARE PROBLEM?
  -J' have set the boot on the CD order in configuration and the desktop with Windows 7 HP Pavilion system repair disc - nothing happened, he went straight to the HD (even if I had turned off).  So that leads me to believe it may be a hardware problem after all.
  
  Do I have other options at this point, except maybe buy another drive?  And in fact if I do, it is possible that one does not work either?

  While you are not alone in this problem, here's a thread that deals with her.

• Second SATA hard drive not detected by Bios and Device Manager

  Original title: second SATA hard drive

  Hard drive not detected by the Bios and the device under Vista Home Premiun Manager

  Hi trinitario,.

  Because the hard drive is not detected in the BIOS also, it may be due to a hard drive configuration that should be changed or a rider. If you need to get in touch with a Local tech-store for assistance.

  Note: change in the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  Its possible that the cd/dvd drive does not, it can happen. Try a lens of dvd/cd cleaner to see if that helps.

  Make sure you have the latest drivers and software installed for the reader, if they are damaged, they may have to reinstall.

• Hard drive not detected once, but now?

  Hello

  I am Zak, a bit of techno when it comes to playing with the software, or re-Assembly of computers and whatnot. Unfortunately, I have no idea about other things.

  Some quick history on my laptop: the fan was made terrible noises in recent weeks. Initially, I thought it was little dust, so I got a few duster. A lot of dust came out, so that can only be good, but the noise came back after a few days. After some research, I thought that the other logical explanation was probably the hard drive goes bad. I hesitate to send back to HP because I use it for all my college work and it would really put me back weeks to have it not.

  So, a few days ago I booted my computer laptop at a "drive not detected" - or very similar - message. There were a few options for f1 - f4, they were information system and 3 different tests (I think). I ran the tests, all of them came back fine, noting that there are no operating system installed, or a hard drive to boot from. I rebooted because I didn't quite start and wanted to see if there were other options. It turns out that he has started well. I restarted once more and again once it did it very well.

  Then, I coded around, back up all my data, gather warranty information, installation of the HP Support Assistant, etc. I ran all the tests help Wizard and there is no problems found. Since I just got the laptop hibernation when I stop using it, and I have not met any unusual problems. All this sounds great, but my warranty expires December 7 this year. It is safe for me to assume that the "drive not detected" error was just one missed? I read a lot of discussions and FAQS on him and it's not something that happens once and goes. However, I never had to use a warranty so not sure quite how the process works, and as I said, he sent everywhere would put me in my work.

  In order to be a full post, I have a HP G62 - 367DX laptop, running on Windows 7 64-bit OS, and as far as I know there no change was made between error and my prior boot. If there is any other information I can give you, let me know.

  See you soon, thank you for all help and good day

  The wizard tests are not as comprehensive or reliable as the drive hard test in the BIOS... tap F10 as you power up, go and find the hard drive test. Run the long form test and see what it says. It is not uncommon that the hard drive start as intermittent and get progressively more frequent problems. If your drive passes the test of long form, only enough safely, you can assume that it was a unique gremlin, but it's still a really good idea to back up. I like the idea of online backup services and I will quote Carbonite only because it is well known and not as an endorsement. There are several more and year external drive is a good idea.

  You can't put off forever; restarting You'll have to deal with the issue at some point.
