Computer does not recognize the CD/DVD drive
For these last days, my computer does not recognize the CD/DVD drive. I have tried everything - publishers of registry, check the physical connections inside the computer, the system restore and install Fix - It programs. However, the computer does not recognize this drive. I also wonder if it is a hardware problem. The light on the drive is a constant in green, and does not have the Open button. And when I use the bent-paper-clip-in-the-little-hole and can open the drive, it will not read the disc. Please advise...
I fixed my problem with the BIOS operating system & not recognizing not not my DVD player to reinvest the solder on the motherboard. You can find instructions on how to do it here: http://www.computerrepairtips.net/how-to-reflow-a-laptop-motherboard/
There was a little crazy with my video drivers when I started first, but everything works after resetting the BIOS by default.

1. you have any third-party burning software installed on your computer?
2. have you checked if the external CD drive works on another computer?
I suggest that you check if your internal CD-ROM drive is detected in the BIOS.
Usually, you must press a key (for example, F2, F12, DEL, ESC) or a key combination whenever you turn on your computer, but before I get to the BIOS to start Windows. Check to see if there is the CD/DVD drive in the BIOS.
You can see the article for more information about the BIOS:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions
Regarding the external CD/DVD drive, I suggest you see if it works on another computer.
Thank you

It is listed in the Device Manager, but with a yellow explanation mark.
No mention of this in my computer.
No icon.I am able to open the drawer and I put several types of cd/DVD in them without any result.
The light flashes in orange on the door. The drive is listed as "Mat * advd-ram uj - 841 s-(sm)" in the bios under boot devices.I'm trying to figure out how to remove the drive and reconnect but it seems that I have to disassemble the thing to do and hesitate without a diagram.
It is only a user guide in the downloads on this site so any help is appreciated: 0)
Oh, I also downloaded the driver from this site for the drie. Before that, I uninstalled the drive in Device Manager, but there was no change when I installed the downloaded driver.
Simply using a Ubuntu Linux live cd and it is running.
Unfortunately its going to be hard to know for sure what the problem in this way because I don't want to install ubuntu on this machine it is someone elses machine and they are far from would you like to try linux.I'm in a live session now.
Ah ok when I go in the media folder there is no mention of the cd/dvd drive.It is really a problem unless I can unplug physically the Mo and reconnect: 0 (Oh wait here it... is under 'cdrom' folder ' but only files with a relevance to the side by side with windows installation are mentioned... exe files, wubi etc..)
Ah ok that's beyond my experience.
Can someone give this amateur a tip?First remove the player of ODD (CD/DVD) from the list in Device Manager.

My HP Presario f 700 laptop does not recognize my CD/DVD drive and will not burn or play CDs or DVD movies.
I have a lightscribe, CD/DVD player, and I started having problems about a month ago... I tried to burn a lightsribe CD and my computer told me that I didn't have a CD Lightscribe drive (I!)... then when I just tried to burn the music on the CD, he didn't do it either... Finally a week ago, I tried to play a movie on my laptop, and that does not work either.
When I insert in the film or the cd, the drive lights up and I can hear the work, but it is as if she has no connection with my laptop and my laptop is not picking up the CD/DVD drive try to play a movie or a cd.
A friend suggested that I go to the HP website and am trying to download a driver, but I didn't know what to do once I got to this website, and I don't know if it will work.
If you know how to solve this problem, or if you have had a similar problem with your computer, please help, thank you.
