DVD only drives not seen
I have a Gateway running windows vista sp2 32-bit desktop... I don't see dvd players in my computer or in the bios...
any ideas?
Hello
Remove ALL power and reconnect the cables to the drive and power to the CD/DVD drive. If that does not work
get the player appears in the BIOS, then you need the assistance of a real computer store (no leeks
and displays a Best Buy) or Support technique Gateway. Of course, there could be a bad cable, power
lead, or the reader could fail.
Check with support from gateway and online documentation.

A satellite - DVD Drive not seen by Windows Explorer
The DVD on D deive is not seen by windows Explorer. Used to work, it has now disappeared. The dvd hardwars starts at the start, then stop.
Any ideas anyone?
Hello
You see the DVD drive in Device Manager and you then yellow exclamation points?
Maybe you should just remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot the laptop. Select the drive in the Device Manager, right-click on it and choose uninstall. Then, restart the laptop.If it doesn't work try the workaround posted by Akuma to remove upper and lower filters.
Good bye

DVD drive not seen by Windows 8
I have a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7 537 originally. The installed and functional DVD drive is a TSST DVD +-RW TS-H653G ATA drive.
I have recently installed WIndows 8 in dual boot. When I boot with Windows 8, the DVD drive is not seen. When I go to the Device Manager and I look at the properties of the DVD player, I have the following message appears in the device status area (here I give a translation of the message in french)
This device is not actually connected to the computer (Code = 45).
To correct this problem, reconnect the device to the computer.
The fact is that the DVD still works fine when starting with Windows 7.
Do I need a new driver or a new device or what else?

External CD/DVD RW drive not recognized by Windows XP
Original title: Professional. Have an advantage humbucker 16 X 8 DVD/CD RW & ATi Radeon 9550 AGP 250 M for video and VGA that is not recognized
Have a double microphone 16 X 8 DVD/CD RW advantage which is not recognized by XP Professional. Also have a CD unit and when windows installs the drivers - it gives them both the same driver. DVD RW is only recognized as a CD! Have used Microsoft fixit and he says everything is fine. -It uses the same driver for CD and DVD RW units.
Have also an ATi Radeon 9550 AGP 250 M for the video and VGA and Windows XP does not - have question marks for them in Device Manager. Microsoft fixit - did fix this problem.
Have deleted the drivers and tried to control the computer for downloads by Microsoft and it can't find them - if I do a check for hardware changes, he finds only those who do not work properly and that don't work at all, as indicated above.
Also went on the Microsoft Web site and cannot find a solution it - clicked on links with any help that I could see.
Sorry for the problem - just fusterated

Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
a process that solves the problem.Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

DVD RW drive not responding is not Windows 7
When I insert a disc into my drive drawer DVD RW my Windows 7 system does not. Nothing happens. I can eject the disc manually, but if I try to eject the disk by clicking on the icon of the DVD RW drive it 'hangs' with a message "do not answer." I have not used my DVD RW in over a year, and before that it was operating normally. Device Manager says "this device is working properly" and "driver software is up-to-date." I'm puzzled! Any help / suggestions would be appreciated.
Don't forget that the failure of the CD/DVD devices is one of the most common things that happen to the PC. This is especially likely if your PC is say 5 years or so old.
If yours is a desktop PC, the replacement is easy and inexpensive. Usually about $20 to buy the replacement. Stop, cut the power, hold the switch for 7 seconds or longer. Place the computer on this side with the side where all taken down. Remove the side panel. Remove the 2 screws that hold the drive in place. Remove the two plugs at the rear of the car. In some cases, you may need to remove the front panel to slide out. Do this carefully so that you do not interrupt one of the small carriers off the coast. Reverse the procedure for a new.
If yours is a portable PC, replacing physically isn't difficult. Usually a screw. But it is a patented device that is different for each laptop. Find one could be a problem and your only likely source will be OEM. Price will be high. Probably like $100 or more. A great alternative is an external drive that connects via USB. Can be used in any PC. Cost about $25.

P7 - 1436 s: Second hard drive not seen by Win10.
I physically installed a Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD in my office as additional data storage. He is not seen by the operating system. I followed the instructions and the video on this site. I have installed and run the Seagate drive Wizzard but he does not see the new hard drive either. The new drive is connected to the SATA1. Power is the second connector on the cable that feeds the original hard drive (drive C). I noticed that the hard aiinstalle plant is a Seagate Barracuda 1 TB so I guess tha the new drive must be compatible. The computer works normally.
Do I have to activate the new hard drive in the BIOS, and if so how do I do that? (I make sure all the cables are in place.)
Notice of another forum was to click on the 'Simple Volume' and then format. I did it and here he was there. I was able to access the drive again now. Thanks for all the help.

CD/DVD in the DVD RW drive not recognized
I am running Vista Home Premium 32-bit and have a Matshita DVD-RAM UJ880AS DVD RW drive. I used to be able to burn and read cds, but also the DVD without problem, although I recently discovered that my drive is not always recognize a CD/DVD. I'll insert a disc and close the drive, and it seems that there is no attempt to read the disc at all. Usually a light snoring from the player in order to indicate that it is reading a disc, as well as a small disc icon appearing next to the mouse, but none of this happens.

Publisher: Microsoft CorporationI know that the drive is compatible, because in the past, I ran these discs very on my computer. I tried the blank CD, DVD, bought CD + DVD, burned CD + DVD and they all produce the same result: nothing happens. When I right click on my drive and select the option 'Explorer', an empty window temporarily opens and closes. When I double-click on the drive, nothing happens. What seems to be a particular thing about my situation, is that when I try and restart my computer the problem persists, however when I turned my computer off and then turn it back on the player sometimes will work for a short period before the previous problem back to the top.
Help would be VERY appreciated.
Thanks for your time, but I realized that the problem was with a program that I recently installed. I ended up uninstalling and then by removing any trace of her that I could find on my computer. After restarting, my CD/DVD drive appear to have begun to function properly again and I don't run in my previous problem again so far. Once again, thank you for taking the time to try to help me. The effort is appreciated.

Satellite P30 - Dvd ram drive not working properly
Help, please...
I tried to install 2 pieces of software on a new satellite p30, and resembles a need for new drivers for the dvd player, which is a carpet * a dvd - ram uj-830 s.
Basically, I installed some bog standard games, they fit very well and while respect it works perfectly fine until I have try to load the game itself, and with one, it brings up the message 'Please eject and re-enter cd-rom.
Can someone please point me to the right direction because everything I tried so far has failed, have installed the drivers from ram dvd that came with the laptop, but nothing helps.

Hello
It will be interesting to know if this happens with all data media you use.
In my opinion you must first locate the source of this problem. Check if your DVD - RAM drive works correctly using different CD, DVD and DVD - RAM of course. If Yes, in this case it is a problem specific, based on the game CD.

Hello
After the installation of Win XP SP3 in the last update of windows, Toshiba tools, but also other CD/DVD burning software don't recognize this title, the drive from DVD - ram only as a CD-rom drive.
Thus, software such as recordIt does not work.I have already deleted the drive in the list of material and have reinstalled.
The driver being used is 'Mat * a DVD - RAM UJ - 841S'
That's right, so far. But it's not burn CD/DVDs.A have you noticed this problem as well?
Thank you.
BjoernHello
I think that it s a lower upper filter question and I think that you could solve this sequel to this instruction step by step.
First remove the player of ODD (CD/DVD) from the list in Device Manager.
Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Finally, you must restart the device.
Once again, windows will recognize the STRANGE

Compaq Presario DVD/CD drive not recognized after upgrade to 8.1 Windows
Hello, I recently updated my SR5601UK to Windows 8.1, and he ceased to recognize the CD-ROM drive in Windows.
The last disc it read was the 8.1 upgrade disk.
I checked the power and data cables and the two are connected, Bios, recognizes that I checked for upper and lower buffers in the registry and there is nothing to remove.
No CD/DVD drive is listed in the section 'Devices & readers' on 'This PC' or in 'Device Manager '.
The powers of disc when a disc is inserted, but nothing appears on the screen.
I can only find drivers/firmware on the site HP for XP, Vista and 7, but nothing for 8, so cannot say if it is a firmware/driver problem.
HP Web site says spec of the car but not the manufacturer, so I had trouble finding the update.
Hello:
See if the resolution steps 2, 3, 4 or 5 solves the problem.
One usually does.

CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive not detected
I have a Toshiba Satellite l300d with an OS Vista Home premium. It worked fine for 3 years, but last week, I can't find the cd drive in 'my computer' and am unable to read DVDs, games, etc.
The Toshiba MK1652GSK ATA device appears in Device Manager and I've updated the driver as well as to try to uninstall and reinstall. However, in disk management that only the c drive and e drive (data) are listed with another disk without a name I can't access, when I right click above just said 'help '.I tried to delete upper and lower filters with regedit and similar solutions with registry entries. Mr Fixit shows that the problem is that the driver is not detected, but does not bring a solution.I have idea about what to do next really, any help?Hello
1. don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?
2. what exactly happens when you try to read the disc?
3. you get any error message?
I suggest you to assign the drive letter for the drive using CommandLink and check if it helps:
