• 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.

• 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?

• Why laptop does not read discs

  Hey people, I know nuthing about computers, my question is why my laptop does play not any DVD, CD or blank disc? It was, my machine stopped working yesterday. 2 day I put any type of disc and the custom of lappyjus read, it makes funny noises, AutoPlay will not come to the top and does not record on the screen when I look in my computer. I have 3 media players in the laptop, it has something to do with my problem? am I missing drivers or codecs?

  Hi mmatt3,

  "Funny noises? It maybe the CD/DVD drive is endangered. You may need to have the disc extracted by a computer repair shop or, if the laptop is still under warranty, contact techncial support people of the PC manufacturer.

• Qosmio DX1210 - ODD does not read discs

  Hello, I was asked to help fix a friends computer its an
  Toshiba DX1210 all-in-one desktop.

  its about 1 years with no problems until today the hard drive has suddenly stopped reading discs completely it custom similarly recognize that there is a disc inside.

  I know there is a possibility that the laser is broken, but I want to eliminate everything before I propose to replace the ODD.

  ODD:
  HL-DT-ST BD - RE BT11F

  I have looked everywhere for an answer and did everything I learned to do in the past, but nothing has worked.

  I used restore points.
  Uninstalled the driver then rebooted to reinstall it (installation is a breeze and everything works).
  Reformatted your entire computer (created a backup and restored everything after that she did not).

  I'm stuck on this 100% and really want anyone who might have the answer for me or even to suggest something that would be a great help.

• CD/DVD does not read discs on Pavilion G6 2293SA laptop computer running Windows 8 :(

  Hey there

  I would be very grateful if someone could help me with this.

  I bought the G6 Pavilion in November last year. When I got home I went to a recognize (as recommended) recovery disks but the laptop there is a blank disc in the drive. I tried a couple of different brands, but nothing worked and I got to the PC world. They couldn't work out what the problem was if gave me a replacement, and exactly the same thing happened. They claimed that it was probably one of the "many problems with window 8'. Finally, I tried some Sony DVD - R discs and it worked (hooray!).

  However, since that time the player rarely works properly. It seems to work ok program disks, but don't like them burn all discs. It has never worked through iTunes, for a few days, it let me burn some discs of music with Cyberlink Power2Go but it no longer works.

  Sometimes when I go hard disk it will say there is no disk in it (when it exists) or is it in use? We'll see what he does today... OK, Virgin (Sony CD - RW) drive... the hard disk is whirring... but nothing happens on the screen. OK, navigate to my computer... Double-click the icon and it says: "How do you use this disk" and gives me two options: "as a USB' or 'player with a CD/DVD '. However, it only allows me to choose the first option (which I don't) and even if I click ok on the flash drive option, it says that the drive must be formatted, mess around trying to do for about 10 minutes and then says format failed.

  Can anyone suggest anything? PC World that it is a software problem and my problem (thank you guys). Really grateful for any help.

  See you soon

  Paul

  I suggest using the corresponding update firmware in the driver download section.  Who looks more like a problem of hardware/firmware for me. Use Device Manager to select the firmware update software good optical disc. If the firmware update does not resolve the problem, thencontact HPfor warranty repair.

Anyone know what could be the problem?  Thank you.

• CD drive does not read discs, can not update "multimedia controller" in Device Manager

  Hello, I tried to get my CD drive to read CDs and DVDs and we tried the update driver software.

  It says my driver "matshita dvd ram uj 850 s ATA device ' is up-to-date, but I see no specific driver CD, but no yellow exclamation point in" readers of CD-ROM/DVD-Rom ".

  The only thing with a yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager is in "other devices" and is called "multimedia controller".

  When I try to update this device it says

  "windows driver not found software for your device.

  I tried to uninstall the driver and then restart, but he still has the exclamation yellow on restart.

  I have a sony VAIO pcg8w1m with windows 7 ultimate.
  Does anyone know which specific driver, I'm looking or if something can be a problem?
  Someone at - it other ideas I could try? Thanks for reading this!

  OK, for the problem with the CD of music sometimes having "exclusive mode" active "blocks" audio CD so try disabling the "exclusive mode":

  Right click on the speaker icon in the Notification area of the taskbar > playback devices > then under "Playback" tab, click on "Speakers" (or the default unit) > properties > advanced > remove the check mark in front of "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" > OK

  For the "unknown device" can you, in Device Manager, right click on the "unknown device" and "Uninstall" the device and restart the computer and let Windows redetect the device.

  The device still presents itself as an "unknown device"?

  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

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and

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

• SD-2212 drive does not read some DVD - Satellite 1410

  Hello every1,
  I have the Satellite 1410 604 for more than 2 years, with player combo mentioned above...
  It serves me right, except that it does not read certain types of dvd media, and I use only high quality DVD Verbatim...
  It happens that in the last months. It is not my main computer but it's to use in my house, and it really bothers me when my sister or father takes the new A60 Pro satellite on the road (its battery is better), I can't use last discs on it. So if there is a cause of upgrade, firmware I can't find on this site...

  Thanks in advance...

  Hello

  I don t think that the firmware update will solve this problem because this pilot acknowledged this DVD some time ago.
  In addition, I put t found any firmware of this drive on the Toshiba site.

  But check if the disk by removing the procedure will solve this problem. So why go to Device Manager and remove the disc. After again starting the operating system should recognize the drive again

  Good bye
