D drive not present in 'computer '.

Hello. I have posted several times on Microsoft Answers before, and it has always been about the problems with my computer. It's just a lemon with regard to computers. Anyway, this time the DVD drive (D :) from my computer can not be seen in 'Computer'. It appeared here a few days ago, and now he is not here, so I can't use any disk that I put in my DVD player. I need to use my DVD player to download music from a CD to an event. How can I get my DVD player to appear again?

Not sure I'd call this fourth post "several times", especially when the last two were essentially on the same question (Skype), but...

Sorry, you have problems with your computer.

This time the drive my computer DVD cannot be seen in 'computer '. It appeared here a few days ago, and now he is not here, so I can't use any disk that I put in my DVD player.

Have you tried to use system restore to return to a day where your car WAS visible in 'Computer'...?

The drive appears in the BIOS (a place that has everything to do with your computer and nothing to do with your operating system (Windows 7) and get you in before the operating system (Windows 7) never start start...)?

Is this mode safe?

  • External hard drive not in my computer

    Hello

    I have a question on my external hard drive. It's a drive hard 2.5 "of Toshiba (1 GB).
    I used it already for a long time on my laptop (WINDOWS VISTA) and it worked perfectly until today. I plugged in my hard drive as
    usual and it does not appear on my computer. I looked on the internet and found something about research
    Start - Run diskmgmt.msc, (uitvoeren) - so I tried.
    He showed the next thing on my HARD drive:
    Disc 1
    Unknown
    931,51 GB
    Not initialated (niet geinitialiseerd)
    Unassigned (niet toegewezen)

    I didn't know what to do, so I tried some things. I pressed the right mouse button and he said "initialize disk". I pressed on it and he gave me 2 choices: MBR or GPT.
    I tried both, but they both said: data error: Ketal redunatiecontrole.
    So, I tried something different. I pressed the right button of my mouse again but this time on the black bar beside the disc information. He said "New simple volume", but I dared not go further because I didn't know if I would lose my data or not, if I would. Also, I didn't know how big the new volume should be.

    He also said that the device works properly when I press 'characteristics '.

    I don't know what to do now, and also I don't want my files to be deleted.

    Can someone help me?

    (Sorry for my bad English, if I write it in Dutch because you do not understand my problem, please tell me ;)))

    Can you please test it on another computer just to be sure, the same thing happens again?

    When you connect you hear beep sounds when the new device is connected?

  • A floppy drive is in my computer when no floppy drive is present in the system

    Hello

    My system is as follows:

    PC x 64 ACPI
    Vista Home Premium 64 - bit SP2
    M3N78 Pro motherboard ASUS
    2 x AMD Athlon 64 x 2 processor Dual Core 6400 +.
    4 GB OF RAM
    2 x 500 GB Seagate Barracuda Hard Drives (ST3500820AS)
    NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT graphics card

    A recent power outage at left me with several problems when restarting my pc. It was notably BIOS reorganize my boot sequence so that my drive C and drive D swapped places, ASUS Express Gate allowing itself when it had previously been disabled and apparently adding a floppy to my system drive (visible in my computer and Device Manager) when none are physically present. Some alterations in the Bios allowed me to change my boot back to its original and correct order sequence and disable ASUS Express Gate, and therefore no longer issues. However, I had absolutely no chance to get rid of the ghost floppy. My only solution is to disable the floppy drive controller in Device Manager (I don't know if it was present before installing SP2 or the power cut or not) in order to remove the entry from the workstation. However, this means that it is always visible as an inactive device in Device Manager. If I try to uninstall both the floppy drive and the controller of the device, Vista Manager merely note them appropriate drivers and kindly re - install them for me, placing the drive in my computer ghost floppy drive and Device Manager. Short of reformatting or the upgrade to Windows 7 to see if I can fix this bug annoying, I'm at a loss as to how to proceed. Any help much appreciated.

    See you soon

    Jon

    If you have even disabled the floppy controller in the BIOS?
    In addition, to replace your CMOS battery (typically a CR2032 coin cell and available everywhere.)  That's why your BIOS to reset the values by default when the power is out - his battery died.
    That won't help with this particular problem right now "However, it will prevent it from happening again.

  • CD ROM not showing drive is not in my computer.

    My cd/dvd drive is no longer recognized in my computer. It seems to be working, opens and closes and seeing little flashes when I put in a disc. but the disc does not load and the hard drive is not available in 'computer '.

    Ive tried the Device Manager. He comes in there, and ive done the scan for hardware changes and its still not to come. Ive also tried the microsoft help forum, and their suggestion didn't help either.

    Any ideas?

    > Ive tried Device Manager. He comes in there, and ive done the scan for hardware changes and its still not to come.
    Have you checked if the drive is listed in the BIOS?
    Check this please.

    I thought is might be only a registry key problem, but if the drive is not listed in Device Manager, if the BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive, then a hardware malfunction could be possible

  • Satellite M40: HARD drive not working after laptop computer trasported turned upside down

    My Satellite M40 is facing a strange problem: whenever I have transport (for example, in the trunk of my car) backwards instead of in his natural position or vertically, after the transport, the HD does not work for a few hours. The BIOS does not see the HD because it is not present at all. After a few hours of rest, without moving, if you try to turn on the PC again, the HD magically comes to work again backwards.

    My HD is made with soda water? :)

    Talk seriously... What do you think it is?

    Hi franz

    Not easy to say what it is, or why it happens. Maybe it? s a bad connection of the HARD disk.
    I guess that this happens because of the agitation in the car.
    Well, I don? don't know if it helps but you can try to check the connection of the HARD disk.
    The second possibility to use another HARD disk. It might be because there is something wrong with the HARD drive.

    Hello

    We have a generator function SRS DS345.

    I just downloaded the driver NOR for the instrument on http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=E3B19B3E9149659CE034080020E748....

    After installation, the DS345 appears in MAX, and I can well communicate with him.

    However, if I run the srds345 to Started.vi, I get an error "location information insufficient (Hex 0xBFFF0011) or the device or resource is not present in the system" from initialize it with Options.vi srds345 sub - vi.

    The only change I did Exchange address GPIB 14 to 19, which is our function generator GPIB address. In addition, the

    Your help in resolving this issue is appreciated. Thank you.

    Have you installed the driver from LabVIEW or copied directly from inst.lib?

    The first is easier, and you don't have to restart LV more...

    Error in a not filled gpib address points. I have not checked if this driver has a resource name visa or a string of gpib address old but in the first case, try the little triangle on the right at the slect address instead of by hand.

  • Cursor flashing at the start of the system and hard drive not working do not on the other computer

    Original title: I need help with my Hardrive

    Recently I had problems with a hard disk of computers. So I'm going to give guys the full story, I fell on this computer, it's actually my mums computer and it had a blue screen at startup error. I'm sorry, but I don't remember that the error was called on the top of my head, basiclly I quikly searched online and alll they say should use fixboot. So I did and the computer booted Windows XP very well. So the next day, when I was starting the machine (just to let you know, it would be the first start since I used fixboot, other than the right after that, I don't know if it would make a difference).

    In any case, while trying to start, there was just a slider, or as underscore that retain just flashing in top left corner. I thought that maybe I should reinstall windows on another partition so my files would be safe. I did it, the installation program had no problem with it, but when I booted up I got the same line of flashing underscore / cursor in the upper left corner.

    I thought that maybe I should back up the hard drive using my other computer so I tried to plug in the hardrive in my work computer and the hardrive started to heat up and as if it worked but any hardrive was getting into my computer, I refreshed it, started the computer upward once again, nothing.

    So my question is what is the problem with this hardrive and how I save? I'm ready to do anything, use the live CD, using another computer. I have precious moments of family on the hardrive.

    Thank you guys

    Hi Joemost,

    As you have important data on the hard drive. We recommend that you contact the vendor of hard drive to diagnose hard drive or visit the nearest tech store to save your data.

    There are chances that the boot files are missing on the computer and also you could have not connected the hard drive as a slave when you connected to the other computer. Once you have saved the data, you can repair the existing windows and check if it starts successfully.

    Try these steps to repair install Windows XP:
    a. start the computer using the XP CD. You may need to change the boot order in the BIOS OF THE system for the CD starts before the hard drive.
    b. on the "Welcome" screen, press ENTER to start the installation of Windows.
    c. accept the license agreement and Windows will search for existing installations of Windows.
    d. Select the XP installation you want to repair in the list, press R to start the repair.
    e. the installation program copies the necessary files to the hard disk and restart.  Do not press any key to boot from CD when the message appears. Setup will continue as if it were a clean install, but your applications and settings are preserved.
    f. when the installation is complete, check if Windows starts correctly.
