The facades look alike? They are the same interface (SATA) and you should be able to pull the drive out of the old laptop and slide it into the news.

Here is the Service Manual:

See Page 35

Above shows the basic idea. The manual lights to show how to remove and swap the facades and the mounting brackets if you need to do.

  • It is Possible to replace the drive DVD Bluray for HP Pavilion dv6-6176sx

    Hi all

    It is Possible to replace the DVD Bluray for HP Pavilion dv6-6176sx notebook PC Player?

    Thank you

    Of course it isn't yet very difficult. You just need a BR drive or a drive? The replacement drive will be $80-120, or so, maybe a little less. You can find them on eBay. You can use a generic but that may require a redesign of the front or just get a car dv6-6000 BR on eBay. Trade on with a few screws on the bottom. Get out and drag the replacement. You will need new software to play BR movies, of course.

  • DVD/BluRay disc will not play

    I guess it's a hardware problem, but could be wrong. I have a hp dv7 1260us. He has been with me to the Afghanistan and back. For a while now, I noticed that it is a slow progression of imcompatibily with the discs(DVD/BluRay) film, data (software) works very well. What could be the problem? Drivers for the disk drive say they are up-to-date. I should it 7 there rather ov vista? Or is there a work around that only cost me money legally?

    Hello

    How many times have you changed area on the drive? This can also cause the problem too.

    Kind regards.

  • Drive DVD/Bluray & software for El Capitan

    I replace my imac with a 27 "iMac 2009 new arrival Monday. I have not bought an external hard drive. The Apple Superdrive comments have not been stellar.

    I also know that because Sony and Apple are not friends, Bluray will not soon to Apple products. I would also like the ability to burn at DVD, if not Bluray discs. Suggestions for readers and/or software (since some players do not understand the software) will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading!

    vtsue,

    I recommend contacting OWC (www.macsales.com) they specialize in Macs and can help you with a Blue Ray burner and then help you to choose the software you need for your application. You can call or do a live chat, according to your preference. Before contacting them please give a little thought to what you want a device capable of Blue Ray to do for you, in this way, they can steer you in the right direction.

  • HP Pavilion DV7 i7-3630-DVD/BluRay not recognized

    Not appearing is not in the Device Manager.  Put a CD DVD or BluRay, it runs but nothing. CyberLink said no current dvd,

    No errors in Device Manager.

    Have tried the fixit/windows error detection programs.

    Laptop is a week old.  Help?

    Well, problem solved.  This is my speculation regarding how/why:

    Some how / way the default package is missing the driver and somehow, it causes the reader is not to detect.

    Reset to the factory settings means that the drive is still "missing".

    After a reset, I noticed that a Windows Update was the installation (to the start screen).  Suddenly the reader was there for the first time ever after this laptop for a month.

    He then disappeared a few hours later and I did a reboot and a Windows Update has downloaded and installed on the start screen.  Drive was back and, fingers crossed, has been back since then.

    I can only assume for soe reason there's a strange loophole where these downloaded but not yet installed the drive to become disabeled cause updates.

  • MediaSmart dvd-bluray flashing

  • CD/DVD/BluRay drive will appear under unknown device

    The driver seems if be installed properly, yet it shows in the 'Unknown' category in Device Manager.  I can burn discs and play discs if I run the program as administrator, but it says that "access is denied." if I try to use the drive without specifying a run as administrator.  Screenshots can be provided if it would be of any help.

    Hi WarrenTC3,

    1 when was the last time it was working fine?

    If Device Manager cannot identify the device, it will label it an unknown device.

    When a device is not functioning, Device Manager also typically displays an error message with an error code that comes with it.

    First, check what is the code for error on an unknown device in Device Manager.

    (a) open the Device Manager , look for the unknown device.

    (b) make a right click on the device and click on Properties, search now on the tab general to find the error code.

    See the link below and run the patch available and check if this solves the problem.

    If the previous step fails, and then run the fix tool below and check out them.

  • DVD bluray missing in Device Manager

    I installed windows 7 pro from CD-Rom. I have barely use cd CD-Rom so I did not notice that all of a sudden my DVD drive has disappeared in the Device Manager. When you insert a disc, it rotates but does not start. BIOS sees the optical drive. BIOS has been also updated. All drivers have been updated. Googeled solutions and delete some keys but that did not work. Also restored the laptop to the previous state, but the disc has not been and cannot be restored later. There is a problem on the HP site but also no results.

    Can't believe that the drive is dead, I installed windows from it.

    Do not want to reinstall windows, as I have to be perfect.

    Any who know this problem and have a solution?

    I have a HP 8760W (not "ban" me at the business forum. I bought the laptop not for or on behalf of a company)

    It works. New DVD's ok.

    Not happy at first when I received the replacement however. I ordered exactly the same model. When I received the new dvd player, it turns out that the front was different (higher) and a metal strip which is screwed on the disk and is used for mounting the drive in the laptop was different. So the new reader did not. Took do some MacGuyvering to get the new drive to adapt.

    But it worked, dvd drive is showing in Device Manager now, so happy .

  • Qosmio F750 - 12 p / BD - RW Pioneer BDR-TD04A - Bluray discs will not play

    Qosmio F750 - 12 p
    BD - RW Pioneer BDR-TD04A
    Windows 7 Home Premium

    Problem: Bluray discs will not play. CD will play.

    History: I did a clean install of Windows 7 and then installed 60 all the drivers from the support site for this laptop model. Or at least those that would install. Interestingly, the driver of Toshiba Bluray would not install. the installation process stated "player not found on your system" or something like that.

    What works the device currently is a 2006 (?) Microsoft driver.

    Clues? It's the second Toshiba laptop, I had to (second-hand), and they both had this problem: DVD players do not play DVD right from the start. Very annoying.

    Update:

    The "Bluray driver" mentioned above is just the own DVD from Toshiba software. It is not a driver. And it does not find the optical drive Bluray on my laptop!

    - The Bluray optical drive will play DVDs, but not of Bluray discs. I'll borrow an another DVD Bluray at the local library, to ensure that it is not a disk failure.

    -The Wifi does not work ("network controller driver is bad / missing")

    - I probably deleted the hidden partition that contains the Toshiba "system recovery disk". I have re-installed Windows and written too. [You are supposed to press "0" when the power, but it does not show the Toshiba Recovery console. I scoured the hidden with a freeware Windows partition and there is nothing usable here.]

    It is a stupid economy, not providing a system restore disk AND do not provide drivers download work. (The drivers offered on the site are simply updated). It makes the laptop value much less long term and creates bad word-of-mouth over time.

    The only station I have is to buy a Blu - Ray external drive and perhaps a Wifi dongle. Crazy.

  • Watching a BluRay 3D via Airplay

    iMac 27 5 k the summer 2015, last updated on all software

    ATV 3

    Panasonic UJ-265 USB 3.0 BD - R

    Epson 6600W, ELPGS03 glasses, so polarized 3D glasses

    Drive Blu - Ray Mac unregistered

    Hi, I have some trouble getting the Bluray 3D experience in the configuration described above. For example, I played Mad Max Fury Road 3D and Shrek 4 3D with Bluray Mac player and he listened via ATV3 (not wireless LAN) on the Epson 6600W. The result seemed to 2D on the screen of the Mac, the 6600W not reported "no 3D signal."

    I need an another DiscReader instead of UJ - 265, another software to read the disks or something else?

    I tried a few clips to youtube via airplay 3D, and it worked quite well with the ATV3, the 6600W and the shutter glasses. The pictures actually left the second dimension and entered the living room. I was expecting some experiences like that during playback, the above mentioned films or any disk marked "3D." I'm wrong with these expectations?

    Thank you very much in advance for any suspicion.

    Many studios prevent the ability of AirPlay via DRM protection on the DVD/Bluray disc...

  • DVD player does not accept disks

    My '' integrated '' DVD player does not read the disc (DVD, BluRay, any region code), but it ejects after a small delay of about 1 to 2 minutes.  Is there a diagnostic software to find the problem?

    Your Super Drive never read blu ray and probably did not. Try a cleaning disc. Try resetting the memory NVRAM How to reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support and SMC reset management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

    Finally buy and inexpensive external optical drive, but not apples Super USB drive because it does not work with your Mac.

    If it's an off change and it is identical to a dvd then in the device manage the properties of the drive should allow you 4 changes.
    It has been a rapid change in registry in Windows 95. I don't know if it's the same for W7 and I do not say more about it. If it's simple then I would expect there are free programs out there to do

  • Adding second drive of DVD to H8-1234.

    The H8-1234 has an open slot and a power connector of alternatives for adding a second DVD player.  However, the existing SATA cable has only one connector. HP offers a cable two connector? Can I use a SATA cable two connectors "generic"?  Finally, the H8-1234 will work with a second DVD disc?  Thank you.

    Here are the specifications of your desktop HP Pavilion HPE h8-1234. According to specifications, your system has six (6) SATA connectors on the motherboard. Unlike the IDE/PATA, SATA supports only one device per cable. Install another CD/DVD/BluRay drive will require you to buy another SATA data cable to make it work. And YES, the computer will function normally with a second optical drive installed.

    Well, that's great - it works, it works! I set AutoPlay to say 9 Power2Go of Cyberlink to start when a blank CD or DVD disc is in the tray & it works like a charm. In fact, I burned my first session successfully using my bluray on a blank CD - R disc player. Burned in a series of songs on the CD with no other problems. Spread the word. Laughing out loud! Be well & thank you for all your help.

    Visit this link to get your free copy of the bluray burning software. I said that it was free, right? Free is good. ;-)
