  • MY CD/DVD DRIVE DOES NOT READ THE DISC READABLE

    MY CD/DVD DRIVE DOES NOT READ ANY READABLE DISK ALL OF A SUDDEN.

    I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.

    I CAN HEAR THE COMPUTER TRYING TO READ BUT IT ME SAID JUST THAT HE HAS NO DISC INSERTED OR THAT THE DISC IS BLANK WHEN ITS CLEARLY NOT.

    IT would NOT be RETURNING to PLAY AUDIO CD IN iTUNES or WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER.

    HELP PLZ

    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 check the cables
    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 system manufacturer
    and the manufacturer of the 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

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

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

    You can probably find more info here and maybe even the exact registry for your CD/DVD settings
    drive from someone with the same model.

  • Satellite P200-140-CD/DVD drive does not read the CD

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite P200-140. The DVD/CD Player plays all DVDs without problem. However, it does not read CD. A message 'no disc' appears.
    I've updated the drivers, cleaned the lens, completed all the normal tasks.

    Any advise / solutions out there?

    Hello

    Maybe you should try to remove the capital letters and lowerfilters in the registry, because you can often read here in the forum:

    (1) run regedit (Start-Run-Regedit online online)
    2) navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    (3) in the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key and delete the key "LowerFilters".
    (4) restart.

    I hope this works for you too! :)

    Good bye

  • Satellite M40-185: DVD super multi drive does not read the CD

    I own a Toshiba Satellite M40-185. It is mounted with a carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ - 831S.
    When I put the CD - R, which are supposed to work on this drive however it read as a CD - R [i.e. the icon changes from DVD - RAM drive in my computer to a CD - R]

    However, when you double-click the drive it says D:\ accicble not. But it works fine with DVD.
    Recently, I found that it stops between buring DVD as well. I got the replaced disk from Toshiba, but it was not to last long either.
    I wonder if his software level problem.

    I tried to update the firmware but it does not work because it's another drive for this what is mentioned on the website for drivers...

    Maybe it s only a registry error?
    I read different statements here in the forum and especially the deletion of in the upper and lower registry filters helps to address these issues.

    For more information, see this page of Microsoft Knowledge:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us

    Completely remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters from the following registry key values:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    and then restart the laptop

    Good luck

  • CD/DVD drive does not read the newspapers.

    A blank 'CD' message appears when a DVD + R disc is inserted (IE a disc created images or slide show)

    First of all, what version of Windows®, the edition and service pack level is your system running?

    Second, to describe the material in question, please?
    What is the manufacturer and model of the optical drive?
    What is the manufacturer and model of your system so excited?
    What is the manufacturer and model of the motherboard if it is not packed?

    Finally and most importantly, please read: KB555375 - how to ask a question.

    The manufacturer of the drive and the model is important because there are scanners which were manufactured until the latest optical media definitions were defined.  Many of these same readers have updated firmware that will allow them to recognize several types of media.  If your system is shipped with the disk in it, package manager can have the firmware update on their support site.  If not supplied in a system, you can go to the optical drive manufacturer support web site to search for updates to the firmware.  (Often easier said than done.  A search engine may be involved...)  There may be other material considerations, that's why we ask for the manufacturer of motherboard and model or a system.

  • CD player does not read the CD

    Original title: Windows Installer 4.5 on a computer laptop gateway running windows7

    I tried several things with windows install 4.5. I even tried sfc/scannow, and who came back under the name of no violation. The only thing I have not tried is the clean utility windows, that will help? Who's going to make me lose all my photos and music and information stored in the school's computer? The reason why I am trying to solve this problem is because the Player reads any of my software cd HP, Polaroid and Microsoft2010?  someone please advise

    Hi fredibar,

    1 are. What utilities you referring?
    2. what exactly is the problem with Windows install?

    As the CD/DVD drive does not read the CD, we need troubleshoot CD player. We do not think that Windows Installer is related to the CD player.

    To fix the CD/DVD read the issue, try the following steps:
    a. see your CD or DVD drive cannot read or write media
    b. click Run Now button and run the tool successfully.
    c. restart the computer and check if the CD is read by the CD/DVD drive.

  • The CD/DVD drive does not read discs

    Hi, I have a COMPAQ Presario CQ40 with optiarc DVD RW AD - 7561 ATA Device driver, recently the drive does not work properly. It can read and burn the disc, that I already used, but when it's a new (disc white) it does not read the disc.  It has an error message "make sure that the disc uses a format windows recognizes. If the drive is not formatted, you must format it before you use it. "the disc is the format that would recognize the system.  I tried to uninstall the drivers and reinstalled from the Device Manager, but nothing works, tried too much microsoft fixit, always the same.  Hope that there is another work around here... Thank you...

    Have you tried using other burning software?

  • Satellite A40: Drive does not read CD but DVD

    I have a SatA40 (now almost 3 years ago) and cd/dvd unit does not work well, the cd cannot read or write, but the dvd reads all my DVDs.

    Does anyone have an idea why we don't have, and the other does not? (Everyone I mention that he thinks it's strange - thought if does not work the other shouldn't be.)

    Hello

    You sounds of description as the lens of the drive cannot calibrate in the right position.
    Usually before the player will read or write the middle of what the lens must be calibrated.
    In you case the lens can not calibrate and that's why the drive does not recognize the CD.

    Usually in this case, the drive must be replaced.
    But maybe you are a lucky man. Try to clean the lens gently. But be careful

  • CD/DVD drive does not read discs on Equium A100

    My cd/dvd drive does not read any discs be it, white, written or commercially written. It opens and closes and is light to show that he is working on. Device Manager indicates that the device is functioning properly.

    Tried the update of drivers, no update available. Tried restoring the system back 1 day and 1 week and 1 month, then and still the problem cannot be corrected. When I put a cd/dvd in the drive and try to access it, it says: D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error.

    Can someone help me I tried everything my friends and I can think, or is it better to send just to toshiba warranty.

    If the solution proposed by James will not help, you should try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager.
    After phone restart the operating system will recognize and initialize the disk again.
    After this review of the procedure if you can read, write the middle.

  • My laptop does not read the dvd, but another laptop computer bed. PL advise solution. Thank you

    My laptop is Pressario V2000. My laptop does not read the dvd, but another laptop reads the same dvd. PL is the solution. Thank you

    Try another DVD to verify that your laptop can read at least the other DVD.  If he can't play other DVD's then you need to replace the DVD - CD ROM drive supplied with your Pressario.

    Another thing you can try is to check fingerprints or scratches on the DVD, some DVD players are more sensitive than others.

  • Satellite L500-13D-CD/DVD drive does not read CD

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite l500-137 laptop with vista sp2.
    There is a cd writes that my dvd drive would not read, the driver can read other CDs & DVDs well.
    who says cd's seems to be fine as it can become red from the other computer.

    any suggestions?

    * Thanks to *.

    Hello

    That means only one disc can be read from your laptop and all other disks can be read properly? Well, in my opinion, it could be a disc problem, maybe it's striped s and so it can t be read to all readers.

    In your case, I would try to clean the lens of your CD/DVD drive. Therefore, you can use a microfibre cloth.
    Check it!
