• CD/DVD drive not recognized inside the virtual machine

  No matter what I do, I can't get my VM (XP) to recognize the CD/DVD drive. I am running version 2.0.6 of merger and under Mac OS X (10.5.8) on a MacBook Pro. I did a right click on the CD icon in the lower right corner of the computer virtual window, then select 'connect' CD/DVD - I see while the disc turns black (which indicates it's supposed to be connected). I launch Windows Explorer in my virtual machine, but I do not see the CD/DVD drive listed anywhere! Help, please. I have the VM settings to connect to the physical CD/DVD (DVD-R MATSHITA UJ-875) drive. Thanks in advance.

• Hard drive not recognized on the computer after the upgrade to Vista

  I just upgraded to vista a my ext hdd does not come in computer how to install human and format the hard drive?

  What's your Vista-compatible external HARD drive? http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/

  Have you loaded the proper drivers, firmware or software for the external drive and your version of Vista?  He can't just plug-and-play, especially if this isn't original USB key but a convert.

  Once it is recognized by the system (if it is compatible and once the drivers are installed), go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / management of records and right click on the external drive that shows there or format to change the drive letter or a similar task.

  I hope this helps.

• 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? =)

  
  

• CD/DVD drive not recognized by the program ChurchPlus

  When I backup files of Church PC (program ChurchPlus) to my CD - r, the program lists "D" as a choice.  When I restore at home on my PC from the CD - r, it mentions "D" as a choice.  BUT, when I try to back up files that have changed on the CD - r, "D" is not listed as a choice.  My home computer's Inspiron 620 and the diagnosis, I ran said that all past.  Can someone help me with this?  Other financial partners to the Church are able to make their backups without problem.  Any help appreciated.

  Linda

  This error refers to a missing entry in the registry. It has nothing to do with the question of if you have saved the program. My suggestion would be to contact support for more of PowerChurch for assistance than the error, or possibly check in their forums.

  I was able to find this message that relates to the same error. The posted solution is to go to help > PowerChurch Plus and right click the system information tab select Run Netsetup.

• CD/DVD drive not recognized by Windows Vista

  I installed a suite of burningb of CD and DVD on my Toshiba (under Vista Home Premium). My CD/DVD drive appeared more in the computer and was no longer functional. I deleted the program I installed and apparently caused the problem, but it did not help. I have read through the help of Microsoft (929461, 314060) documents and used the Fix - It utility. Also unsuccessful. I discovered the response of Martin, the technical support engineer made on May 5, 2009. I followed his instructions with great success. However, my question now is this: I have still some remains of the problem left over. I get an error message at startup saying, 'InstaBurn UDF driver is not installed correctly. Run the InstaBurn installation program. ' InstaBurn is part of the suite of the copy (hotpics by Nova Development Corp.).  I also have an error message of my reader DVD Toshiba saying that the DVD player does not work - although it is. I played a DVD as a test on it after that I followed the instructions above. How can I remove these error messages annoying that aren't accurate?  Would appreciate any information about this minor - but annoying problem.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------

  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.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose 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.

  ===============================================

  Go to Toshiba and download and drivers or programs that affect the CD/DVD drive - Chipset
  and BIOS updates can also play a role.

  For any download - SAVE - go to where you put them - click on - RUN AS ADMIN

• I found that if it becomes necessary to use time machine to return to an earlier existence to reinstall the iphoto library, if for some reason, you lose lose, then when you try to synchronize your ipad is not recognized by the computer.  As one

  I found that if it becomes necessary to use time machine to return to an earlier existence to reinstall the iphoto library, if for some reason, you lose lose, then when you try to synchronize your ipad is not recognized by the computer.  So when you try to synchronize the pictures, they are all removed from the ipad and trying to reinstall everything again.

  This may or may not work immediately.  In my case, only half the photos have been installed, and then the error message came that the rest of 9000 can be installed.

  I contacted Apple support team who has made various suggestions.  Subsequently clicking on a photo list in iTunes were all going again and pictures of 9000 then installed.  When I asked the support team what could happen I was told that it was a "glitch".  I don't like seeds they mean that there could be an error in coding somewhere.

  Here me again.  I use an iMac and iPad.  I don't know why XP and iPhone came.

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

• 750 GB Seagate replacement drive not recognized in my computer, but show up in the BIOS

  I'm sorry if I break label of forum, but I was afraid that my previous ad in the "Resolved" issue Seagate can be neglected...

  The Seagate firmware problem would explain why my replacement HP 750Go drive, happened today to replace my crashed, is not recognized by my computer?

  A bit of history: after 2 months of operation, my new HP Pavilion a6750f desktop PC crashed, with the 750 GB drive omitting all Smart tests. While replacement is put in the mail, I bought a 1.5 GB Seagate and used to get on yesterday's recovery software. Today, Seagate 750 disk arrived, so I installed as a storage drive (to make backups to avoid another disaster). The BIOS reports as the 3rd disc, ST3750630AS and SMART spent testing.  But it does not appear on my computer (so that I can format it, if necessary.)  When I installed Nero Backitup 4, you can also see the drive, but there are no partitions.

  Issues related to the:

  1. How to format or get this drive recoginized?
  2. Can I install this download of the firmware on my 1.5 GB Seagate, my 1.0 GB of Seagate (another storage drive) and the 750 GB Seagate? If Yes, when I reboot, can I select which drives to apply to?

  Thank you!

  It does not appear there, either.  As soon as Vista SP1 download is finished, I'll check the connectors. However, as it appear in the BIOS and in Nero Backitup, but not in my computer or disk management, it looks like a different problem...

• HDD and dvd are not recognized in the configuration menu, what could be the problem?

  The hard drive and dvd drive are not recognized on the configuration menu for my desktop Pavilion a4316f.  What is a controller failure?  A PCI controller can be used to replace the motherboard controller?

  dhobs,

  Anguish, that the suffering of the faulty motherboard has been aggravated by your actions. Why you decided to perform a restore (which re - formate the disk, erase all your data files (documents, photos, videos to misic,) is really amazing.)

  You had a viable BONE, work and the data store. You he clobbered with recovery. As explained, the 'tattoo' reads the embedded hardware configuration and will stop at the resumption of treatment if it detects a change.

  Only temporary help I can offer is to open the computer case and install a small 12v on the NVidia chip fan. IF the chip is not 100% burned, you can earn low enough time to reinstall the operating system and then add the map.
