DVD currently in use

Reader DVD says that the disk is currently in use. I've experimented a lot especially to do the things that people have suggested on other issues.

The DVD player is one of the generic drives shipped with Dell, there is no separate driver available, its Vista already in. What is good
When nothing is inserted in the drive and when I right click-> eject, it says that the disk is in use.
When I insert a blank media (cd or dvd) and try to click - right-> e ject, it says that the drive is in use
I use autoplay on blank media and open the folder to view, a window opens for a fraction of a second and closes by itself.
When I use Windows Explorer, it says the drive is in use and puts the focus
BUT
When I insert a medium not empty, (games, videos, DVD) it works perfectly. He reads everything I want only it.
I use Nero 7 (Vista Compatible) and when I insert a blank media in the DVD drive, Nero does not recognize my burner. However, when I insert a non blank media, Nero RECOGNIZES my burner (but I can not burn anything on a non blank media so its useless).
It seems that the DVD - RW drive is active when a media not empty is in it.
I took out my DVD - RW drive and I put it in an external enclosure to make it as an external burner. I tried to use it on my laptop via USB (Windows XP SP3) and it works perfectly. I can read and write on blank media in any way I can. so this is not a material to publish
I got the same burner "external" on my Vista PC via the USB port and the same problem occurs as described above.
However, I WAS able to burn stuff via iTunes (Apple, Inc.).
One of the "answers" suggested that the problem was resolved when it uninstalled all of the apple software (Hello, iTunes, Mobile supports, etc.), but this has not worked for me.
I also tried going to 'msconfig' in the race and turned off all non-Microsoft services, but no luck.
I tried to disable/uninstall the device in Device Manager and reboot, I watch the DVD player reinstall by itself, but not luck.
I tried to enter "regedit" and by deleting the UpperFilters and LowerFilters on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}, but not luck.
What's wrong?
I am posting this on the forum "Hardware and drivers" but I honestly don't think its faulty hardware/driver because it worked on Windows XP.

I fixed it! It seems that I got the virus and I took smitfraudfix and difficulty of the drop-down list. I don't know who did the trick, but now I can open and explore my dvd player. I hope this help anyone who had this problem cuz it took me forever to find the answer.

  • Which current printer uses cartridges 350Xl and 351XL please?

    Apology because I know this has been asked before but my photosmart c4380 is now partially dead (prints but the scans are still completely black? do not know if this can be easily fixed?) and I sitting cartridges in the closet.  Could someone tell me what current models use these cartridges please? Thank you.

    Hi there, these cartridges are generations old at this stage for his very little probable that you will be able to buy a new printer that takes these supplies. If the scanning feature no longer works on the unit, but you're an owner of /tablet smartphone (Apple or Android), a solution would be to install the HP all-in-One Printer application. This application automatically processes the images taken by the camera of your smartphone or tablet to create. PDF or. JPG files. You can share documents from your device whenever you usually store your scans of the C4380. I included a link here to a document of support for the application with links to the download page in Google game as Apple app store.

    Just be aware that the other features of the app wouldn't be used as the C4380 is not compatible with the application. But at least he could meet your scanning needs, and allow you to continue to use the printer for printing needs you have.

    Hope this information is helpful to you and if you have any other questions just post back.

    Best.

  • All of a sudden is: "all TV tuners are currently in use.

    I happily use Media Center on Windows 7 and I'm now all of a sudden the errror "all TV tuners are currently in use.

    I did not need hibernation or sleep. The tuner is an external USB one of HP. I even went as far as the deletion of the Adaptec USB drivers (and they have reinstalled themselves). The drivers are a "Adaptec AVC - 3610 USB Device" and a "Adaptec AVC - 3610FM USB Device" the latest drivers are version 1.7.2.1100 and are since 2005, but please keep in mind that the Media Center worked and now does not work.

    The really strange thing is that when I do the installation of the remote control, it actually displays an image when analyzing the different channels (it found the picture on channel 3, which is what my decoder issues).

  • Office Express Error Msg: SENT file is currently being used by Outlook or by another application AND don't GET COMPACT. Help!

    Hello!
     
     
    I have both Outlook 2003 and Outlook Express 2003 loaded on my computer
    Only, I use Outlook Express and have not used regularly Outlook in 5 years.
    I have no problems using Express, (both in the sending or receiving of emails).
    There is no "snap-emails" sent or received in Outlook regular and none in the Outbox.  The same with the Express.
     
    About every month, compresses files Outlook Express and in doing so, the folder sent items do not get compressed, it does not create a new file SentItems.bak and it gives me the error: has SENT the file is currently being used by Outlook or by another application. 
     
    All the time this problem started, I received a number of updates to Office 2003 from Microsoft (probably updates 20-25).  They have installed without incident and that's the only problem resulting, I had with one of the components of Office.
     
    Thanks again for your help.  I'm looking forward to this problem so that it works correctly.

    The sent items folder may have a corruption.  Create a new folder and copy the text in the folder into the new folder.  Then close OE and delete the file sent items.dbx.  OE will create a new.  DBX files should not receive more than a few hundred megabytes or they get corrupted.

    A more effective solution: since you seem to have corruption, it may mean that there are more, if you can set up a new message store by clicking file | Identities.  Then you can add your accounts, use the file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.  Which will remove all corruption.

    Whatever it is, it's a good time to save your messages in OE, because it tends to remove them in unexpected ways.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6 also, if resumes default Outlook, he likes to do when he starts to date, just see www.oehelp.com/oedef.aspx

    See if that helps.

    I am not able to switch accounts of users... says the computer is currently in use and locked and any administrator can unlock? How to unlock so I can not on my other user accounts?

    Hi hellfire4,

    ·         You are the administrator of the computer?

    ·         This computer is on a network?

    If this computer is on a network or a domain environment, then you will need to contact the administrator for more help.

    If this isn't the case, then you may need to ask the user who is already connected, turn off the computer. In addition, you can consult this article to disable this option. (If it is not in a network or a domain environment).

  • What type of DVD can I use for backup of Windows?

    I'm wanting to make my backup of Windows and I was wondering what type of DVD media I use. Is it better to use a RW or one R type DVD.

    I have a HP Omni 220-1180qd, A5W89AV #ABA, Win7 64 bit running.

    I thought I read it can use CD, DVD, but I want to know which would be the best choice.

    Thanks for any help and any help is appreciated.

    Honestly, an external hard drive would be a better choice. The difference between-R and + R/W is only + R is "Writable" and + R/W is "Re-Writable. If you intend to do periodic backups, go with an external hard drive... If you intend to make backups very little, consider DVD + R discs.

  • "The specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password", trying to connect to a remote drive.

    Original title: the specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password.__To to connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share.

    I am trying to connect to a remote drive. I clicked to map the drive, entered the name of the drive, came the name of login/password for the computer turns on and then it give me this error message: the specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password. To connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share.

    In Windows 7 Enterprise, I would like to point out that, if you map \\server1\share1 as drive letter X using "user1" and "password1", then try to map \\server1\share2 (a different share) as drive letter Y using the same ID "User1" and "password1" and you select 'connect using different credentials' in the dialog box connect a network drive and specify the id "User1" and "password1". you will get this error MESSAGE INCORRECT that says 'the specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password'.

    The message is bad because:

    1. the specified network (action2 in my example) folder is not mapped at all, and

    2. the server (in my example, "server1") is already mapped (to a different and different drive letter share) using the SAME user name and password.

    The error message is wrong in two respects.

    This let me puzzled for a while until I realized that once you have mapped to 'Server1' using the credentials, you can map to different actions on the same server without re - specify the credentials.  It is NOT CLEARLY the 'Map network drives' dialog box, which leads to users (like me, and I'm a programmer by trade) trying to enter credentials again and this incorrect error message.
