• Windows 8 DVD ROM not reading discs

  Yesterday I installed a few games on Steam, I was playing Saints Row the third while he was busy installing and bit after that I had to restart my PC because it was originally the trolling game. At the next startup, my laptop then got stuck on the login screen, where I put in my password/PIN and it would just sit there and do nothing. This kept going until that of course I had to go in safe mode and use that 'Everything clear, but keep your files' option windows 8 a, and am now able to log in and access my files.

  Nut, now I am faced with a new problem, my DVD ROM will not read and disk I insert in there. It was working fine until I deleted everything, and now I can't use it.

  I tried to use the tool of diagnosis provided by Microsoft for this problem, but it does not work. I should also mention the possibility of editing the registry does not work either.

  My laptop is reasonably elderly, ten months or so, but I doubt that it is only a hardware problem because the DVD ROM shows on my computer and device manager says it works very well.

  Are there other solutions for this or should I just take it back to the shop?

  Hi Taonga,

• DVD ROM not reading CD

  Hello world

  System manufacturer: DELL Inc..

  System model: Vostro 1015

  OS: Windows 7 64-bit

  I'm having a problem with dvd - ROM does not detect not the disc?

  The player turns upward discs at all?  If so, see the next step.  If not, the drive is toast - replace it with a new one.

  If the disc is spinning, but it will not read the system, start safe mode (press F8 repeatedly until WIndows starts loading).  See that if the system will read the disc in safe mode - if it is, you have a driver problem.  If you have any CD/DVD software installed in read/write, uninstall, reboot and reinstall.

  If the drive will not read a disc even in safe mode, it's the toast - replace the drive.

• Windows Media Center cannot detect the error DVD Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD into the drive

  Original title: why Windows Media Center does not detect my DVD?

  I built my computer motherboard ASUS P658D, Intel i7 processor clocked at 2.6 gHz, 12 GB RAM, 750W Corsair PWR. power, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit & ie9. When I put or the other two DVDs in one of two DVD players, Windows Media Center appears and when I click on "Play DVD" Media Center give me a window that says:

  "Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD in the drive." Two DVDs, I've tried are educational for DVD

  my Nikon D300 Digital camera and a family video DVD or both these very well play in a bed of same computer running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, & ie8.

  I tried Microsoft Fixit, no help. I tried to send Microsoft Support, and I got NO HELP. I did not bring any changes, and installed any program, just

  scoured the internet. A DVD player is a Sony Optarc with Microsoft Driver, the other is ASUS. I also tried to use Windows Media Player but nothing

  rises or it returns me to Windows Media Center and it does not detect to play either of my DVD. How can I get help here, or from Microsoft? Thank you.

  No, there is no yellow warning in Device Manager and the device manager says that two DVD players work properly. Mr. Fix it's

  automated download from microsoft that is supposed to automatically fix some problems, but he provided no help here. I think it is more likely

  that there is a problem with Windows Media Center or Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and either of my two new Sony DVD drives

  and ASUS.

  I thought my way in a solution. My thought was: Device Manager indicates DVD players work properly and both are new and we're Sony, and the other ASUS so I think only an unlikely problem with readers. The problem is with Windows Media Center "do DETECTED is not the DVD. So there must be a problem with Windows Media Center. I thought that I might need to reinstall Windows 7... then I thought that maybe if I just reinstall Windows Media that will work. He did. My problem was:

  Start > Panel > programs and features > features on or off Windows activate > then uncheck the box for multimedia functions > restart the computer > and then re-check the box to restore the multimedia features > now both discs play both DVDs, I tried. Both disks are operating normally. Reinstall the characteristics of media Windows 7 resolved the problem. Thanks to all who offered solutions.

  After the foregoing:

  References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

  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
  below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
  cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and the
  correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

• DRAC 5 installation media: "Selection of CD/DVD-ROM not valid."

  I connect to a Drac 5 with firmware version 1.33 using 32 bit Firefox 2.0.0.20 as downloaded from Mozilla.org running on CentOS 5.2.

  It seems to me installing the Console and media attach the plug-ins OK, but I get a problem when I try to join a DVD-ROM. I select the ISO from Centos 5.2 image, but when I press the Connect button I get a pop-up indicating that "the page at https://192.168.108.102 says: ' then 'selection of CD/DVD-ROM not valid.'.

  If I try the same thing using IE 7 under Windows, it will connect, but since I don't have Windows in the data center is too slow and no use for me to try to connect a DVD over the WAN.

  I searched Google and found nothing documenting this error so I am a bit stuck as to what it means and what to do about it.

  I tried to run firefox as root also in case the plugin was trying to cordon the ISO file.

  I also eliminated any firewall blocking the ports.

  This problem is related to Internet Explorer 8.
  The error can be resolved by adding the IP address as a trusted site in Internet Explorer 8.

• Satellite M35x-s349 - DVD-ROM drive read not

  I have a Satellite M35x-s349. I got it around late 2004.

  He has had this problem for a few months and I had submitted to not being able to read or write cd / dvd because I couldn't find my recovery disks. When the computer was planted I renewed my efforts, found, restored with the help of an external HD enclosure, backed up and restored my computer. It was working fine. I burned the CD and watched movies without problems for a few months.

  He has now stopped read any kind of cd yet. I put the small drive flashes next to my cursor. I hear movement inside (ROAR and the eye moving) but after about 20 seconds, he gave up and claims that there is no disc in the drive. I don't want to have to do a system restore, but I can't even read the restore disk to reinstall the driver. Are there any ideas on why this happens if not all the solutions? Any way to reinstall the driver online? I am a user of level intermediary model so I can understand most tech jargon you throw my way. I can usually solve my own problems, but this one seems hopeless.

  Any help is very appreciated.

  I agree with Akuma. If the bootable CD/DVD cannot be read by the player are probably defective.

  It's old notebook and you can find replacement on eBay.
  Change the record is not complicated and if you need help let us know.
