• 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:

  -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.

• Satellite Pro A210 DVD Drive not working no-error code 39

  Hi all

  My Satellite Pro A210 dvd player does not load.
  When I looked inside, he showed an error code 39.
  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it still doesn't work.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the 39 error message appears if the CD/DVD drive is not visible in my computer.
  You can try this workaround:
  Go to Device Manager and remove the drive CD/DVD from the list of devices.
  Then go to the registry (regedit) and remove upper and lower key filters:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Then restart the device and test again
  I think this should help!

• Equium A210 - known good cd/dvd drive not recognized by BIOS

  I tried several dvd cd players in this device, but the BIOS has 'no' against the optical drive...

  readers are good units because they work with a USB caddy on another machine...

  I need the optical drive to work so that I can re - install, like the hard drive is now corrupted. The recovery appears to require the laptop to boot from the CD drive.

  If there are suggestions on how I can install on a formatted hard drive, without using a usb cd drive, it would be cool...

  > readers are good units because they work with a USB caddy on another machine

  The BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive because of the wrong master/slave/c-salt settings. You must use a compatible CD/DVD player. This CD/DVD drive can be ordered from local ASP.

  > Are there any suggestions on how I can install on a formatted hard drive, without using a usb cd drive, it would be cool...

  Perhaps you may be able to install Windows on USB
  I don't know if the BIOS can support booting from USB, but it s worth a try m.
  Here a beautiful page how to do this:

  I also tried a full scan with Norton Antivirus, but found no problem.

  Someone at - it bright ideas on how to solve this problem?

  Perhaps this might solve your problem:

  Open your registry editor (run as regedit)

  Go to and select this key:

  Have you tried using a different DVD media?
  Check if it is possible to burn movies on a DVD-R or DVD + R.
  Do not forget that the internal CD/DVD drive supports DVD + RW.

  On the Toshiba driver page, you will find also 2 Firmware updates.
  Check which drive you unit and try to update the firmware.
  Also try installing the DVD ram driver.

• CD ROM / DVD drive not recognized and viruses on the computer

  Can anyone help please?
  My CD ROM / DVD Drive failed. I tried troubleshooting etc but not available. The computer does not recognize I have a CD / dvd as a player he says that is not recognized by the register?
  I also have a virus that I can't get rid of, it's maybe part of the problem (Trojan horse - Spy.HTML.Smitfraud.c) I ran many viruses, spyware and trojan controls but there is no cure yet?
  I tried the system recovery, but it won't let me get it back to an earlier date.
  I can't use my restore disk because the computer does not recognize the drive. A catch 22 situation.
  Can anyone offer any other advice that throw it out the window?

  Help from anyone would be much appreciated.

  HI Paul,.

  I think that your first priority will be to remove the virus from your laptop. The following link contains the virus details: -.

  http://securityresponse.Symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/W32.Desktophijack.html

  You are shown in the BIOS to CD-ROM? If yes then set to be the first selectable boot device and you should be able to load your recovery disk and restart it.
