  Hello

  Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean with adaptation? If you want to burn files to DVD media, it stops after about 3%. Am I wrong?

  Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then restart the device. After that the drive will be recognized and installed correctly. You can also try reinstalling the burning software.

• CD/DVD drive works, but does not read the CD

  Upgrade to Windows 7, last week. All right.  In the past days, have been ripping the CD for my MP3 player.  Tonight, the CD/DVD stopped reading media.  I can see the drive in Windows Explorer.  When I click on the drive icon in the WinExplorer, the drawer opens for loading; However, when I insert a CD and close the drawer, read access / the light blinks but nothing to indicate that the CD is actually read.  CD new no scratches.  Anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

  If this is a brand new CD, the CD's may be defective or your disk may need an update of firmware to understand a new type of media.

• CD/DVD RW drive bed but will not write...

  I use Windows XP and use the disk drive: Optiarc DVD RW AD - 7530A. Under "Properties" is the State of the device "working properly" and he plays both CDs and DVDs. However, it will not write. I tried several software programs, including windows Media Player. When I right click on the driver, there is a recording tab.

  The drive appears to work at first, but it can progress remains at 0% and the drive will continue as he does something, but it's not. If I try to cancel the burning using buttons in the software, nothing will happen. It will freeze my computer. The Task Manager will not work, and my only option is to keep the off button on the laptop until it dies. When I turn it back on, a small window pops up saying files are waiting to be transferred to disk, click on the bubble to continue (or something like that). If I click on it, then I see the blue screen of death and the computer shuts down.
  He also seems to have done something for my Explorer, it freezes too (I'm on Safari now)

• Satellite A300-1 M 1 - skates from CD/DVD, makes noise but does not read the CD

  I own a laptop Satellite A300 - 1 M 1

  He reads some DVD, windows media player or VLC, but fails to read CDs and many DVDs

  The drive is recognized in Windows Vista. I updated the drives and rebooted. Then removed from devide Manager and rebooted. The removal of the UpperFilters and LowerFilters registry and restarted it again.

  The problem is it exactly even. I can read a DVD (DVD movie) but not a CD (with data). I can read both disks on a different laptop.
  When I insert the DVD, the disc spins and in few seconds it appears in windows Explorer and can be played with Windows Media Player or VLC, for example. When I insert a CD with the data, CD towers, there is slippage noises, at different speeds. The mouse cursor changes briefly shhowing a disc below it, the orange light flashes, but after some 40 seconds or so only a message appears "Please insert a readable disc. Needless to say, I tried several different CD. Only DVD movie I managed to read on the player.

  The drive is listed on the device as a Manager:
  HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA - T50N

  The CMN Satellite A300 - 1 M 1 are:
  Intel CoreDuo P8400 2.26 GHz
  4 GB OF RAM
  I'm using Windows Vista (as it was installed on this laptop)

  What can I do to fix this?

  Hello

  I think that there is not much to buddy
  I think that it s a CD/DVD drive problem
  There might be something wrong with the lens of laser disk or disks are not totally compatible

  You could try burning the disks on another computer and could attempt to read copied discs

  Otherwise you will need a new CD/DVD drive

• DVD-ROM drive works, but does not appear in 'Computer' and discs can be played

  I totally messed up my DVD - ROM drive. After graduating the famous blue screen of death once yesterday and once today, I thought that my PC settings reset would fix the problem. Then, I pressed F2 when my computer starts and resets all settings. Unforunately, this is something serious to my DVD - ROM drive. Initially, it did not work, so I opened my computer and somehow got it works. But now, it does not detect the disks I insert in there. I get the message "no DVD - ROM drive found."

  Anyone know if it's fixable? I hope I don't have to take my computer somewhere for repair. Unforunately, I don't know the make or model of the hard drive. My the PC features that I think are important are listed below.

  I watch this thread, so if I'm on my PC I will be notified by email of responses.

  Characteristics of the computer:

  Model: Dell Dimension E520
  OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit)
  Video card: ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO

• SD card reader recognizes that there is a card in the reader, but does not open it

  I have Windows Vista Home premium and not had a problem with the drive so far. I used this card in the drive before with no problems. The card still reads in my digital camera and I checked to make sure it was unlocked. When I insert the card into the reader, the card will appear as "Secure Digital Storage Device" under the window of the computer, but when I try to click on the drive to open it, I get an error message saying insert a disc in the "Secure Digital Storage Device. I've updated the drivers for the card and the card reader, but that has not solved the problem. Any suggestions?

  Thank you!

  Hi hopkinshoney,

  This error occurs with this particular SD card or all SD cards? Try to use another card and check.
  What brand of camera is it?
  The device appears in Device Manager?
   
  You can open the Device Manager window by clicking Start and then typing 'device manager '.
  Click the entry that appear in the upper part.
   
  Method 1.
  You have installed the cumulative package of Vista SD card?
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/933847
  Try that to see if that solves your problem.
   
  Method 2.
  You can also read this article which includes a hotfix:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/939772
   
  Method 3.
  I suggest to perform a clean boot to see if startup programs are causing a conflict with your hardware.
  Here's how:

• PNY attached 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive recognized but does not work under the Windows 7 operating system

  I have an attached PNY 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive that works perfectly on Windows XP. But when I try to use it on a Windows 7 operating system, it is very few recognized by Windows 7. I mean at least, is that when I look for the device by exploring 'Computer' in the menu start the device does not appear at ALL. However, when I go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> devices and printers, it shows a device called "DISK 2.0" which I believe are 'minimum' recognition of this 8GB flash drive, I was talking about. Can someone help me get the recognition for this camera on Windows 7? Thank you.

  Edit: I noticed in Device Manager-> USB MASS STORAGE DEVICE-> Propteries the following for my optical mouse Microsoft and the PNY 8 GB flash drive

  The Microsoft Optical mouse is the location: Port_ #0001.Hub_ #0004

  On the MagicJack (USB Composite device) is the location: Port_ #0002.Hub_ #0007

  On the flash drive is the location: 0000.001d.0002.002.000.000.000.000.000

  3rd place property looks pretty weird (Im assuming that third location data for the flash player, since the only other USB devices are my Microsft mouse and the MagicJack I know is a composite device, but I'm wrong.  AMD Athlon 64 3200 + 1GIG memory ATI Radeon X800XL 250gig W.D. hard drive

  An automatic Microsoft Windows update fixed my problem with this specific long ago PNY USB flash drive. It has been set at least the last 6 months or more.

• DVD drive on laptop does not work since the installation of Windows 8

  The DVD player on my laptop would not consider movies since I installed Windows 8.  Any ideas what app or service should be addressed to make it work.  I don't know if it is a hardware problem (I doubt it, it worked fine before) or a video software problem.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Unfortunately, Windows 8 does not natively support playback of DVD movies.  You need to install a Windows Media Center (no player) or a 3rd party application.

  I recommend VLC - a free, open-source media player.  It will play DVD files immediately after installation.  Additional measures must be taken if you have a Blu - Ray player on your device.
