DVD and CD not recognized
Hello, whenever I insert a cd or dvd on my drive light comes on as usual and made a sound, but my laptop does not recognize the drive. He thinks, there is no disc in the drive, when I try to burn also. I checked the boot order and the drive is listed. I also tried to remove the drive from Device Manager, then scanned for changes to the system. It did not help. Finally, I tried microsoft fix. It also has not fixed it. Is it possible that the disc is just broken? I can't see them on my computer. My laptop is a HP pavilion dv7 1232nr. Thank you.
Thanks for the reply, but that did not work. I put the cd in and then turns off my computer. I turned it back on and it does not start. Any other ideas?

If all what CD/DVD you put in has been created in such a manner, it should be one that you can start from * and * the BIOS is configured to boot from the CD/DVD drive first - then you have proven your drive is defective. Replace or repair the defective item.

Re: CD/DVD drive is not recognized correctly on my Equium P200
I recently bought a laptop P200D and now, I found that the CD/DVD drive is not recognized.
In Device Manager the drive icon has a yellow on exclamation and in the wealthy area it says "Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) »
I tried uninstalling the drive and then to restart the laptop but it is has not been successful. I recently downloaded and installed the Service Pack 1 for Vista and I have read that there have been problems with device drivers and wonder if there is such a body?
Are there updated drivers available for this device?

Hi Paul,.
You don't say what model of laptop you have, but generally speaking if you are using Windows XP then you will use the standard Microsoft drivers for your scanner.
However, you can Toshiba drivers and utilities download from Toshiba web site by clicking on the Support section and downloads and selection of files to download. You will need to fill in the details of your laptop so that the list of appropriate driver (unless you have provided these details when you register).

He used to work. It comes from when the computer was around the age of 4 months. should have put in, but could not take the days off to bring it back to BEST BUY - 2 years ago.
Then... the CD/DVD drive is not recognized by Windows or other programs. If I insert a CD as Photo Suite III or any what CD/DVD, the green light comes on but no rotation and not even a warning to error.
Now what? How can I find out / know the specs of what to look for a replacement/new one... I lost the book in my move to Florida. I have tried all sorts of key word in GOOGLE and I am half blind and tired to be re-directed to sites that have nothing to do with my question.

Satellite M40X - DVD drive is not recognized
I bought a new satellite pro m40x yesterday and today everything worked fine but today the dvd and cd rom is not recognized more. I don't know about cell phones, what can I do? I don't want to return it to Toshiba and wait 4 weeks to get it back.
My son needs the notebook the week next to the school.Hi Christine,
Please check in the Device Manager to see if there's anything showing against your CD-ROM drive. If your CD-ROM is always displayed, you should be able to run the process of troubleshooting against it to check for possible errors.
If your CD-ROM is more listed and then launch the 'Scan for hardware changes' option to see if it detects your CD-ROM.

Re: New DVD player is not recognized - Satellite 5200 801
The old DVD drive no longer works, so I bought a new DVD player (SonyNEC Optiarc AD - 7593A).
But the system does not recognize the new drive at all.I can not boot from the CD and in the hardwaremanager, there is no CD/DVD.
But the drive works. If I put a CD in, you can hear how he turns upward.
If I put the old drive, it is recognized in the hardwaremanager, but the reader no longer works.Any ideas?
Thank you
FO> But the drive works. If I put a CD in, you can hear how he turns upward.
It says nothing! You can hear the rotating disc because it s connected to the laptop and it s operated.
The BIOS is important! Your new CD/DVD drive is recognized in the BIOS?
If not, then you have purchased NOT compatible CD/DVD player!
I think that the master/slave/c-salt settings are not compatible with the laptop and so the CD/DVD drive may not be recognized.
