  Hello @jsilvester2006 ,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I understand that your CD/DVD drive on your laptop does not work.

  Can you please answer the following questions:

  You have recently installed software or Windows updates?

  When did you start in this topic?

  Have you tried several DVD?

  Make sure you have the latest version of the installed CyberLink PowerDVD software. Without this software, the DVD drive cannot read DVD or Blu - ray discs. You can download this software here: the CyberLink PowerDVD software.

  You can also try to do a restore system before the issue started if it a question recently of news. You can access the restoration through the HP Recovery Manager by tapping the F11 key, while the portable lights.

  I would like to know if it works for you.

• HP Pavillion P6687: DVD drive don't read do not

  Hi all

  Recently I have problems with my DVD drive. It will not read the DVD when they are inserted and when I try to see through Windows Explorer, I am asked to insert a disc.

  The drawer opens and closes and I hear work but it does not recognize the discs.

  I believe that the optics are good, because it works very well and will autostart and play a cd when inserted.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

• Seeing the drive DVD Satellite M50 does not turn OFF, CD/DVD drive don't read do not

  Hello

  I have a Satellite M50 - mx5 with a carpet * a DVD player. When I insert the CD or DVD, the player starts, turns the CD autour (the indicator light flashes)... but a few seconds later, the drive stops turning, but the DVD drive light is on.

  Windows also think that the DVD drive is empty.
  I also tried to boot Windows from the CD when the computer starts upward, but without success either.

  Ideas for what is wrong? Is my DVD drive broken?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Sorry to said but in my opinion, drive is dead and that the replacement allows the reader features can save.

  But be aware that not every drive is supported and can be used with the laptop!
  Take a look in the user manual. Sometimes the compatible players are listed.
  And it s useful to know that all parts can be ordered from the ASP in your country.

  have a nice weekend ;)

• CD dvd drive don't work or detected

  I have a gateway NV55C Windows7 running. My cd/dvd drive does not work. When I put a cd it looks to its operation, and when I open it upwards to take what he turns. I tried Mr. Fix It and get a message saying that my device is not. I can't find a cd/dvd in my device manager. Can someone help me solve this problem. I contacted Gateway and they said that my computer was out of warranty (about 2 months ago).

  Hi Mary,

  Welcome to the Forums Community Microsoft and thanks for posting the question.

  According to the description, the CD/DVD drive has stopped working. We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.

  1. which Microsoft Fixit did you?

  2. do you see the icon for CD/DVD in Windows Explorer?

  3 is this problem limited to any CD or a specific DVD?

  Your CD or DVD drive is missing or not recognized by Windows or other programs, so you cannot play or access a CD or a DVD. This issue would have occurred after you installed, uninstalled or updated a program.

  Given that the troubleshooter could not see the CD DVD drive, you can try to navigate to the following location in the registry editor and deleted the upper filter and lower filter keys and check if it helps you get the job of CD DVD player.

  1. click on Startand then click all programs.

  2. in the start menu search box type regeditand press ENTER. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  3. in the navigation pane, locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  4. in the right pane, look for UpperFilters and UpperFilter key and select it.
  Note You can also see an UpperFilters.bak registry entry. You don't have to delete this entry. Click UpperFilters . If you do not see the UpperFilters registry entry, you may still have to delete the LowerFilters registry entry.

  5. on the Edit menu, click delete.

  6. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, clickYes.

  7. exit the registry editor.

  8 restart the computer.

  Note: Sometimes, this problem is due to two Windows that have been corrupted registry entries. To resolve this problem, you must use the registry editor to delete the corrupted registry entries. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, proceed as in the KB Article:

• My dvd drive doesn't read disks?

  I'm on Windows XP Edition family with Media Center and endowed of all three service packs and updates.  The drive is a Sony DVD + RW DW Q58A.

  I tried a disc of data of a show, I was in, but the disc won't admit there is data on the disc in the drive.  I tried the all new factory install disks (who worked three weeks when I installed new hardware, they came with), CDs from multiple manufacturers that I myself, had burned the original factory delivers Bo to my favorite show on CD and even the recorded data files drive my friend saved for me.  None of them would play; I continue to see the DVD - ROM icon go to a disk, but it shows 0 bytes free and total 0 bytes, IF it bothers recognize the drive at all.  I can't open the disk in Windows Explorer; There is nothing except an empty window.

  ~ I did the thing to uninstall/reinstall device; no luck

  ~ I tried to update/restore to the driver; the one I have is the only integer

  ~ I tried the Mr FixIt option, but still HE always tells me that my disks are not readable, although I know full well they should be.  The only thing I can think of that may have messed with things is that I accidentally deleted my CD burning software pre-installed.  However, I did go back and redownload/install, so that shouldn't be a problem.

  * Update: I managed to somehow get a frying play-off-the Bo TV disc once out of maybe 15 times, I tried to play it.  The spinning drive and it will read the disk enough to tell me the name of the song and its duration, but Mr FixIT don't like this drive if I try and run the automated thing.

  I think it's time for a new drive, but I hope I can kickstart it to life.  Any suggestions would be helpful.

• I installed a new driver for CD/DVD; TSSTcorp CDW/DVD TS - L - 462 was of... CD/DVD Driver.but it does not read empty CD or DVD. It is said that there is no disc in the drive.

  After I install TSSTcorp CDW/DVD TS - L - 462 A ATA device of... CD/DVD drive, I played a cd & he played the cd. After I tried to back up my laptop, I was told to "put a DVD selected", so I did it, but it does not reconise dvd I set, so I put in a blank dvd, & press "use a dvd blank." but he did not read.  It keep saying "install an accessible dvd writable", or "there is no cd or dvd in the drive," what is happening please help.

  Hello

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

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

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

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

• Equium L300 CD/DVD Drive no longer reads disks

  There is already a thread with a similar problem to this with a different model, but it seems to be dead.

  The reader of CD/DVD on my Equium L300-148 now refuses to read the discs. It seems to burn yet, which is odd.
  That means the laser has not burned, and drivers seem to work fine.

  I see the drive in the Solution Explorer, and I can eject it with the context menu.
  I tried a "Disable" then "enable" in the Device Manager, but I have not tried to uninstall the drive and then restarting.

  Any help would be apreciated.

  Is the CD/DVD drive is able to read the Toshiba Recovery disk?
  Have you tried to boot from the Toshiba Recovery disk and then reinstall the OS?
  Please check this!

  If it of possible to read the recovery disc then the STRANGE is not defective and eventually he only s software problem.

  Notes; boot from the recovery disk will format the whole HARD drive and will set the laptop to factory setting!
