  • DVD-ROM drive works, but does not appear in 'Computer' and discs can be played

    I totally messed up my DVD - ROM drive. After graduating the famous blue screen of death once yesterday and once today, I thought that my PC settings reset would fix the problem. Then, I pressed F2 when my computer starts and resets all settings. Unforunately, this is something serious to my DVD - ROM drive. Initially, it did not work, so I opened my computer and somehow got it works. But now, it does not detect the disks I insert in there. I get the message "no DVD - ROM drive found."

    Anyone know if it's fixable? I hope I don't have to take my computer somewhere for repair. Unforunately, I don't know the make or model of the hard drive. My the PC features that I think are important are listed below.

    I watch this thread, so if I'm on my PC I will be notified by email of responses.

  • USB ports, CD/DVD player, and Mike just does not work

    So I'm pretty sure that these things are happening at the same time, although there are risks my trying to troubleshoot the USB ports have contributed to the failure of the microphone (internal and will not capture sound) and cd/dvd drive (not open). Perhaps? It is true that I know little about these kinds of things, but I'm much less following the indications which is what I did to try to tackle the problem of USB port, which was the first I noticed. I followed all the advice I could find online for troubleshooting when all usb ports do not respond. I used Device Manager to disable in its regular and safe mode. I also uninstalled them all in both modes (even if they reinstall until I'm able to restart). I unplugged and wait 5, 10, 15 min etc. There was a difficulty mentioned about watching the. Mine and INF files do not contain the mentioned error. I'm tempted to all my files backup and restore the computer to factory settings, especially now that the CD/DVD player and the micro does not work. This would solve the problem? If these things are related? Could even restore settings because I can't have in the cd/dvd drive? It's a dell inspiron 1721, and it crushed while you restart for almost a whole day just all the time I've began to notice all these malfunctions. I really appreciate any guidance!

    Good so I solved all of these problems. I don't know what did the trick, but when I went back in the BIOS to re - activate the ports they have worked!

  • DVD - ROM Toshiba Recovery disk does not start

    Hello

    I'm having some problems with my Toshiba Satellite M40, and I decided to reinstall the OS with the recovery of the dvd disk, but the disk does not start.

    I have already tried:
    1. by pressing the "C" key to start the computer
    2 - press "F12".
    3 - Enter the BIOS Setup and select cd-rom to start first

    But the computer starts up normally and no error message appears

    Can someone help me? I don't know what to do

    Thank you

I can get the led light will stop flashing when I open the door all the way, the machine detects the drive but do not read or close on its own, how can I get this disc surgery? Downloading updates, I installed a software disc, when I ejected the disc, the drive comes of is stopped. The computer still sees the drive, but will not read or even close on its own. I also had been using my computer in mode mute until I tried to increase the volume and now the computer tells me no playback device installed.

The Control Panel also sees the soundsticks, but still when I try to move the volume the computer says there is no playback device installed.

  • After you insert the disc in the drive, the system does not recognize f

    After having inserted the disc in the drive, the system does not recognize f indicating that a disk has been inserted.  Rattling coming from player. HP Pavilion Notebook g series

    Hello

    Welcome to the Microsoft community.

    According to the request, I understand that your system is unable to recognize the F: drive after inserting a disc. I appreciate your efforts to solve this problem.

    The issue could be due to one of the following reasons - the drive might be bad, might have a cable loose or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Given the clicking of the drive I suggest you to clean the optics on the drive by wiping with a barely damp q-tip.

    If there is a possibility of cables in bulk. I suggest to remove the power supply, then make sure that the cables at both ends. Remove and replace firmly. For laptops, you can often clean power and contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    1. Open the Control Panel.
    2. Click on Device Manager and select CD/DVD.
    3. Double click on the drivers tab.
    4. Click update drivers and right click on the Uninstalldisk.
    5. Reboot- it will refresh the default driver stack.

  • Inspiron 620 does not illuminate

    I have a 620 Inspiron, that does not illuminate.  Green light outside lights when the computer is plugged in but there is no light lit on the motherboard, or elsewhere in the Interior.

    Is it a question of power power or a motherboard problem?

    Thank you

    The YELLOW LED on the CHIP (on the motherboard) must light up when the machine is connected, and the green light on the back indicates AC power.  You have a DEAD power supply.

    Had to reinstall my CS3 because of faulty hard drive. It does not accept my serial number as it says it is already used the maximum number of activations and says I should turn off. I can't as the hard disk failed! Please help.

    Have already tried to contact Adobe and they told me to reinstall the program. I did this and the same issue. It's crazy. I can not turn off something that I did not more...

    Thank you.

    No - I had, of course, tried all these things. Finally, I had someone (after several days) on the personal chat group that could fix and it did it in a few minutes. Too bad that nobody else seemed to be able to do. Adobe is very soft.

    I can't thank enough the other person - it was amazing.

  • Added raw lun mapped as a new hard drive, but VM does not see it.

    ESX 4.0 with two Windows Server 2008 virtual computer running.

    Created with SAN volumes and put at the disposal of the ESX host.

    I went in with my client vSphere virtual machine settings and added a new hard drive > mapped raw lun, stored with VM, physical and everything seems to set up correctly after hitting good. I also increased the size of the other two disks on this virtual machine. I rebooted the VM and connected to the server to find that he does not see the new drive, or he does not see the new size increases for other readers. I rebooted the host and yet, nothing new.

    What have I done wrong? Why these changes are not recognized by the virtual machine?

    After the increase in the size of disk or adding new disks, you must go the the VM Windows disk management and resize or format/partition/boot disks.

    If not, look in Device Manager, they appear in red/yellow or is there any "unknown devices"?
