Don't go DVD player on desktop Pc windows 7 network home for computer laptop windows 8
Desktop PC to Windows 7 with DVD player, I want to share on my network home wifi with my new windows laptop 8 who doesn't have a DVD player. I went to control panel to set the sharing but sharing was gray.
Hi Susan,.
The sharing option is grayed out, it is because it is not possible to share a DVD player on your system through a wireless network.
You can buy an external DVD drive that connects via a USB port to use on the laptop Windows 8.
Feel free to use the forum for the future to any other issue of Windows, you may have.

You need to remove the upper and lower registry filters.
But before doing so, please remove the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager.Then start the registry (regedit) and then remove the filters above and below this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Then restart the laptop

Hi DonnieS,
As you mentioned in your post, it is usually caused due to corruption in file registry of pilots. I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it works for you.
Method 1:
The known last good Configuration feature is a recovery option that you can use to start your computer by using the most recent settings that worked. The known last good Configuration feature restores all information and the driver registry settings that were in effect the last time the computer started successfully.
Refer to the following article in Microsoft Help to boot last known good configuration:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/using-last-known-good-configuration
Method 2:
Try to reinstall the drivers from CD/DVD and check if it helps. This is to check if the problem is caused due to the corruption of driver's record or not.
To uninstall and reinstall the device drivers, see the following Microsoft TechNet article.
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725782.aspx
Please reply with the status of the issue so that we can better help you.

I am posting this from my laptop.
Whenever I try to start my office, I gives me the options to start windows normally, last good configuration, safe mode, etc. known. None of these work. Upstairs, he asked that I get my Windows restore disk, reboot and repair. Well, that works either, because I was not able to load ANY media on my computer for a while now. I don't know how it happened, but since I have never really used the CD for nothing, I paid little attention to her. Now, I'm screwed. I can do to fix this without having to replace anything?
Thank you.

The screen turns blue. Ugh...
Hello
You can borrow and use a Microsoft Retail or system builder OEM Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.
Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
Then make a bootable USB key with it to reinstall the operating system (see method 2):

Use your P/N on hp pilot site and find the service manual and see what the cottage to OD it uses and you can then use to refer to what DVD player burner you can get.

If you want to check a correspondent bootabl CD/DVD, start Notepad and press F12 for the boot menu!
Then boot from the CD, when it starts the drive should be ok!Then the failure is based on windows and a restoration of the system must display the CD-ROM drive in the Explorer again!
Otherwise, it may be a failure hardware look defective IDE connector or something. Then a Service Toshiba partner must be called for a short check up!

Mata * beep * keeps losing dvd player
My dvd player disappears from the window 'my computer '. The reader is turned on but does not appear in Device Manager. Months, what has happened and hp sent me a solution of regedit. I don't have this solution more and I don't know what the cause of the problem. System Restore will not do. Help?
If the drive is not found anywhere in Device Manager, then you encounter a possible hardware/connection failure. Try to turn off the laptop, remove the battery and then out the CD/DVD drive and reinsert. Then back - turn on the laptop and test it.
You also need to update your BIOS to the latest version on your software and drivers download page.
If the device not found rest, either the drive is dead or the controller on the motherboard is bad and will require the replacement or service.

His grave suddenly on a DVD player, but in the first, still and WM Player
Hello
The sound on the DVD I burned in still suddenly falls to almost inaudible--but only when played on a DVD player! The problem does not occur on a computer (well in the first, still and DVD sounds good on all players like windows media, real player, etc.).
Drop noise happens in the same place, about 40 seconds in the 1/2 hour video. Then, the sound blasts at full volume for the end credits I inspected the 2 audio tracks in the first and track volumes do not change, nor my knots of volume control in the securities themselves explain the problem.
Why it would sound good in all applications on a computer, but not on a DVD player... and why the first 40 seconds would sound good on the DVD player?
I could hear volume of 'regular' dialogue in the left and much softer, but not absent, in the right. I can't guarantee this isn't an artifact on this end.
I think you have solved the audio problem at first. Looks like you have a stereo audio track from a source who had a microphone in a single channel. Instead of panning, "fill right" (or left, I always have to check myself on this) so that you get the dialogue on both sides.
I don't think that you dismissed a phase problem. But I suspect that when solve you the problem of the track, your audio will be correct.

Updated El Capitian, why can't I read films in imovie in the DVD player, I did?
In original imovie I could play the iMovie anywhere, I did, now the iMovie I made won't play in any DVD player. What hurts when I made them?
In order to play your DVD in a DVD player, to do with a program like iDVD for DVD authoring. You can make a DVD of data without using a design program, and who will play on your computer but not on a DVD.
With the latest version of iMovie, you make a DVD created by sharing your movie to a file and then dragging (import) this film in a
creation of program such as iDVD or other ones you can get on the market. He will then play on a DVD player.
