DVD burner does not appear.

List of burner windows dvd maker, no burners are shown. my cd - rw drive does not work properly.  Creation of dvd uses a different burner? How I'd get it in the list of burner?

I have a dvd - rw drive.  It does not work properly.  On the creation of dvd, where it says choose a burner, burner was initially.  I deleted it by mistake in the list.  How can I get that back on the list so I can burn?  Thank you for answer

==================================================
Sorry... I don't know exactly how to get the DVD Maker to recognize an optical drive.

Might be interesting to try to go to Device Manager and uninstall the drive in
issue and restart the system to see if it would reinstall it.

  • Satellite A100: CD/DVD drive does not appear in the Manager of peripherals and BIOS

    The CD/DVD drive does not appear in the window manager and I can't incert CD
    The BIOS displays "none" instead of "optical device".

    This means that the CD device is dead?

    Hey Micky,

    Unfortunately it's probably :-(. You can try to remove the optical drive and then reinsert it into Notepad, and then marketing and see if it is recognized as a new device.

    Check also that it is not displayed in Device Manager and if it is remove before trying the above.

    Hi Garry_x,

    1. were you able to use the DVD burner before with no problems?

    2. you remember to make changes to the computer recently?

    This can occur when more than one service is defined for a device, if there is a failure at the opening of the service registry entry, or if the driver name cannot be obtained from the service registry entry.

    You can check out the following link and check for the resolution:

  • My HP DVD/ROM does not appear in the device under my computer Manager or when I scan for readers.

    My HP DVD/ROM does not appear in the device under my computer Manager or when I scan for readers, most of the time.  Every now and then it will be visible and I can use it but 90% of the time it does not exist.  I tried the regedit fix, nothing.  I tried the program Microsoft Fix It, it tells me it cannot locate a DVD/ROM.  I removed, cleaned and reinserted my DVD/ROM drive, but no difference.  I tried everything, except the upgrade to Windows 7... who will be my last resort.

    Hello gargoyle28m,

    If your hardware is not detected to upgrade to Windows 7 is not a resolution. This issue may be caused if the DVD drive is faulty or connections loose on the mother board. You may need to check the connections. I suggest you check if the DVD drive works on another computer. You can contact the manufacturer of your computer to help you with this problem.

    Thank you

  • CD/DVD-ROM problems, drive not detected AND the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager

    I'm having serious problems here. My CD/DVD-ROM drive is not detected and will not answer. I can ONLY open the drawer at the beginning of my computer laptop startup. The drive does not appear in my computer and the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager. Therefore, the "uninstall/reinstall" is impossible if the computer behaves as it has never been this drive now or never. Previously, I was able to use it as there was no problem, but someday, it's simply not there.

  • Double layer DVD burning does not

    The double-layer DVD burning does not work on my XPS420 w/vista.  The drive reads everything good and burns only 4.7 GB very well.  When you try to burn to a disc double layer blank he Burns half of the project (probably a layer), and then gives me an error message.  This happened with two different software.  Once with Roxio 10.1 included with the system and once with DVD Shrink.  I use an ISO image file appropriate.  My Player recognizes a disc blank double layer with 8 GB of free space.  During the burning process is when all else fails.  I downloaded the update of the firmware as well.  My thought is that it may be a media problem.  I virgins, disc double layer 8.5 GB DVD + R DL.  It's a brand off I've not heard of, but that was all that was available at the store.  It is a toshiba player, not sure of the model number.  16xRW +-.  Note: the front of the drive said no DL.  If all goes well they installed the correct drive.

    any thoughts?

    Thank you.

  • DVD drive does not appear on the screen of the reader 'computer '.

    I lost access to the DVD drive. It does not appear on the screen of the reader 'computer '.
    It starts with a disc inserted, but stops after about 20 seconds without opening all files.
    The DVD comes on when it starts first and then turns off after a few seconds.
    I have re-installed the driver of Toshiba and still no access.

    I think it all started when I installed a new WD 1 TB external hard drive which its virtual CD drive on the E: drive, which was used by the installation DVD player. I moved the external hard drive G: and drive E: letter has left vacant, but still does not work.

    Any ideas how I can fix this problem? It would be greatly appreciated.

  • DVD player does not appear error - the driver may be corrupted or missing. Code 39, fix the driver installation fails, virtual drives don't work - same results if the material under tension

    Original title: drive does not appear, difficulty he pilot installation fails, virtual drives don't work - same results if the material under tension

    A few weeks ago, as my two DVD players (the two Samsung Lightscribe SH-S223Q of) disappeared after a repair installed, I did for the other problems (not sure if it was directly after installation because I don't notice it right away, but it was no doubt). In Device Manager, it gives the message:

    "Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) »

    I tried the Microsoft Fix It tool (Mats_Run.dvd.exe) that detects the problem and says "Install device driver" in a popup, but then he says "software device driver failed to installed. At the end it says under the issue, the "CD/DVD drive is not detected" and the status of Fix 'not set '. Note that, when I boot from another hard drive (with Vista 64 on it installed from the same DVD, just a new installation) disks appear very well. Also I can boot from the drive as well.

    I can't do a repair installation, since it must initiate Windows, and I can't load the disc. I tried to update my BIOS but that has no effect.

    Recently I actually moved this hard drive to another one, with another brand of hard drive and all the rest. Just like before, if I boot from another hard drive (this one with Windows 7), the drive unit-a Optiarc AD-7230 s - looks and works, and I can also boot from the drive at startup. But since the drive hard as I want to use, the drive does not appear. Fix it, etc. Device Manager gives the same messages as before.

    I tried virtual drives - Daemon Tools Lite and Virtual Clonedrive. When I try to add virtual devices to help, nothing happens. The new drive will be displayed in the Manager of devices, but with the same error Code 39 as the real drive.

    What are my options at this point? How can I get the drive to appear or to fix my copy of Windows?

    I could solve this problem. I started in Ubuntu and deleted the existing cdrom.sys, cdrom.inf etc. files (as in Windows, they were protected and I couldn't delete them), then I copied the files from another installation of Vista I had on another hard drive. After having done that, I updated the drivers in device, disabled/enabled readers and readers management that presented themselves.

    In addition, it would be interesting to know if the drive is seen in BIOS or not because in the worst case, need to replace the disk.

  • CD/DVD drive does not appear in Windows 8

    My CD/DVD drive no longer appears in Windows Explorer in point 8.1 of Windows on my desktop HP Pavilion Slimline 400-034. The disc rotates during startup. I tried the troubleshooting of Microsoft Window 8 with no luck. I would try the HP troubleshooting which requires access BIOS when booting, but by pressing F10 at startup me does not BIOS but Windows load normally. Any suggestions to at least help me get the BIOS?

    Solved! No. thanks to HP. Even if I had never opened the file on my PC and make sure that the cable DVD could not be disconnected, I decided to look for. Much to my surprise, he has been disconnected - but not by me - by a HP technician. I remembered that I had to return the PC to HP to replace the power supply warranty in June 2014. Not only have they not reconnect the cable SATA DVD, they put the cable from the hard drive in the MB connector where the DVD cable was supposed to be. After trial and error and insert the DVD cable in the 3 open SATA connectors with no luck, and finally move the cable from the hard drive to another connector and put the cable DVD where the cable from the hard drive was, the DVD has been recognized by Windows and working correctly. Thanks to HP for the many hours I lost to try to correct their mistake.
