Drivers for DVD in computers are corrupt.

The DVD - RW for my laptop and desktop computer can not read or write.  Both computers have Vista Home premium.  Mircosoft support fix - it indicates that the drivers are corrupt.  The two DVD stoped working in 2010.

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 make sure that the cables in 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 manufacturer of system and
manufacturer of 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.

  • Windows 7 drivers for Bluetooth Headset Sumvision Psyc wave S1

    My vague Sumvision Psyc helmet S1 Bluetooth will pair OK with my computer laptop Windows 7 but Windows continues to ask drivers to be installed before operation. No driver has been provided by the manufacturer, and there is nothing to download on the manufacturers Web site. Does anyone know of a solution to this?

    Thank you very much

    Wil.

    Hey Wil,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are unable to connect your Bluetooth headset with the system and will surely help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, please answer the following questions to help us identify the problem and you provide better assistance.

    1. What is the exact brand and model no. your computer?
    2. Other Bluetooth devices connect and work properly when connected to this system?
    3. What is the exact error message you get when you say: "guard of Windows asking drivers?

    The question could arise if the Bluetooth drivers installed in the system are corrupt, the Bluetooth service running in the system is defective or if there is a conflict due to third party software service which is an obstacle to the Bluetooth connection.

    So that these causes of diagnose and fix the problem, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Run the hardware and devices Troubleshooter to verify hardware problems with the system or the connected component. See the following link to do so:

    Open the hardware and devices Troubleshooter

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    Please check if the Bluetooth support service is started.

    1. By a click of button and type Start services.msc in Start Search and press ENTER.
    2. Right-click on the Service of Support Bluetooth , and then select Properties.
    3. Change type to Automatic startup, and then click Start.
    4. Click OK.

    Try to connect the Bluetooth device. If the issuestill exists, try the next method.

    Method 3:

    Try to run the patch that is available in the following link and look for the question.

  • Need to Win7 32 bit drivers for Satellite C660-1MP

    I recently bought by Satellite C660-1MP
    Product Code PSC1NE - 006004G 5

    I bought Windows7 32 bit

    I tried 32 bit drivers on the toshiba site and there is no 32-bit. I tried vain to 64-bit.

    Please advice if you have the correct drivers. I canoe install the 64-bit version caused you some conflicts between applications.

    You are right. Drivers for Win7 32-bit are not available. But there is one interesting thing: your laptop has Intel HM65 Express Chipset, this chipset is offered on several other models and none of them are supported for 32 bit OS.

    I tried to find something but unfortunately without success. I'm sorry. Try to find the driver on Intel support page. If you have made know us. We can try to find other important factors.

  • Equium A210 - need drivers for Windows XP

    Hello world

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A210 (details below). It came with Vista, and I would like the downgrade to XP. I looked around a bit and it seems to be not a lot of info on downgrade from Vista to XP, but not for this specific machine. I also looked on the main site of Toshiba XP drivers, but the only ones are for the wireless card, no other pilot appear.

    Also, where can I get the SATA drivers for this model, or are they the same as most series Equium A? And how I can integrate them into a bootable Windows XP CD.

    Rgds,
    Seth

    Details of the laptop
    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium
    Toshiba Satellite A210-17I (or L?)
    PSAFJE-003003KS

    As far as I know, you can use driver SATA of other satellite laptop models. Regarding your second question, I can just say follow: check the option of advanced search and use NLITE as therm sought. You will find very good discussions with exact explanation how.

  • Can not find drivers for Windows 8.

    Hi all

    I just installed Windows 8 on my HDX 16 and soon I found the drivers for the network adapters are not installed by default. When I go to the HP Web site, it has no drivers for Windows 8, Windows 7 only. When I tried to install drivers windows 7, he told me it was bad verson. It was for the Ethernet port. For my wifi, it tells me I need to have the .net framework 2.0 or higher and will not let me install this driver. After making sure that I installed the latest version, it still does not detect that I have the latest .net.

    I don't know why HP has no support for Windows 8 drivers, so any help would be appreciated.

    EDIT: Scratch that. He seems to recognize the pilot after several reboots.

    I solved the problem. Thank you
