CD/DVD-Rom will not read the CD
I just upgraded from vista to windows 7 Home premium database on my laptop and now my CD-DVD-Rom will not read any CD I put in the drive. He reads that DVD very well so I'm up for a loop now. My drivers are all far better that I can find. I know it's a CD-DVD-Rom, because before I updated I had no problem reading CDs and DVDs. This is a problem because all my anti-virus and other programs are all on CD. I don't know how to fix this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
-Thank you
Thanks for the post with suggestions. I have tried it all and still had the same problem. I called Dell and got the laptop computer and an hour with a tech restarted my computer and try to fix it, they decided that something in the upgrade process damaged my CDRom and they sent me a new to replace my current one. I'll get it Tuesday and weather post or not, that is the question. Just in case where there are other people out there who might have the same problem.
-Thank you again for your help

CDDVD rom will not read the dvd rom or DVD
my cd/dvdwrighter reads only cd rom not my dvd rom or DVD
Hello
You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
correctly.Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.
Brand of the CD or DVD drive can also be the problem. Low quality (cheap brands) are always problematic.
CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.Several good info here:

Hello
I assume that you have installed Win XP on this oldi.
Win XP and other systems such as Win Vista or Win 7 use the Microsoft CD/DVD driver and a STRANGE special drivers is therefore not necessary.
The ODD (optical disc) must be recognized by Win XP automatically without installation of any other drivers driver update is not necessary.I recommend the removal of the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager, and then remove the upper and lower registry filters.

Equium A100-027: CD/DVD player will not read the CD data/music

I tried a new cd of norton, but do not read this and have tried other commercial programs but no luck... just click
the same thing with music, tried I don't know how many discs, same result... help me please!
Have you ever tried this method?
Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.
Then start the registry (regedit) and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}Then restart your laptop, and after that windows installs it again. Perhaps this may solve your problem.

Carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-820 s will not read the cd rom cd-rom dvd
OK, I read the other posts on these discs. Mine will play DVD movies and play them. It will not read the dvd ROM CD CD-ROM etc.
This cannot be a hardware problem, it must be the software should not it?
Can anyone help?
Does anyone have information on how to remove these disks of the computer? Im sure I can install a new one myself if I really need to.
Unfortunately the computer is just out of warrantyHi Robert,.
Unfortunately, your problem sounds like a problem with the hardware with the optical drive. The player itself must be able to refocus its lenses to switch between DVD and CD formats, and also to pass the pressed DVD and DVD burned.
I suggest you tyre remove the device from the Device Manager Control Panel, then restart your laptop so that the optical drive will be recognized as a new component hardware and Windows will then be re - install with standard drivers etc. If this does not work then it looks like a new drive will be necessary.
Unfortunately you say not what model of laptop you have (the removal procedure is not the same in all cases), but in general if the car is equipped with in-house it is held in place with one or two screws accessible from the bottom of the laptop that should be removed first, then the optical drive can be slid out of its location.
Kind regards

Satellite A40-231: SD-R6112 will not read the DVDs I burned
I finally got my DVD burner to work, but now the drive will not read the DVDs I burned, which, of course, defies the point of having a dvd burner in the first place... When I insert my dvd recently burned, "working" light lights and stays on. Same thing happens no matter how many times I take it out and put plug back in, restart my computer, etc... any ideas anyone?
Hello
@Magnus:
Sometimes, CDs and burned DVD cannot be read with no closing sessions of engraving. You should check this option.
In addition, this burning program did you use?
I use Nero. Form is the program better combustion and I never had a problem.
What you need to do is to test several DVDs. not all media work on the disc. -

create dvd Windows will not import the mp4, how to get around it, someone knows?
It must convert your mp4 to WMV format video, and then add the wmv in Windows DVD Maker.
There are other formats supported by Windows, but I chose WMV format because it is the most reliable and foolproof format for Windows.
You can google for a free video converter. No need to buy one, unless you are a 'huge' in the making of films and others.
I use Prism video converter. It's free.
I'm not fan of movie maker. Prism is what I need it to do.
