  • You have problems with programs

  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Always do a job - even in a first time?  If so, pilots may have been replaced by a Microsoft Update and maybe that's why it doesn't work anymore.  Check the drivers and see if there is an option to restore the drivers to a previous version (which may be supplied with the system when he worked).  If so, try the restore and see if that solves the problem.  Make sure that it not only reads blu ray disks but can read and burn CDs and DVDs as it should.  If not you can always just reinstall the drivers by unscrewing the restore and restore the drivers who were there before you started this effort and again to confirm that it still works except for playing blu ray discs.

  I don't see the point in HP brake a blu ray player that has no driver available for it - I have never actually heard of what happens with a manufacturer or the device installed on the computers they sell.  Someone at HP left dropped the ball big time on this one.  Maybe HP will give you a free exchange to another blu ray player they may have available for your computer making the drivers for it and who actually works like the one bought you is not - it can't hurt to ask.  Check the options first then you can ask to him who is of at least equal quality and is the same price, or maybe a bit more expensive - they can always be arranged because of the problem, they know exists.  I guess that it's still under warranty, so that shouldn't be a problem.  It's an option-, but the decision is yours.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  Hello Manu Mali,

  Well, I would replace the drive with a new one. NewEgg.com is a great place to watch here: http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=5&name=CD-DVD-Burners I recommend the Pioneer players. They are expensive these days. Hope this helps you. Let us know anyway. Make it a great day!

• ATAPI DVD A DH16AYH ATA Device read DVD but not CD

  Engraver of CD/DVD in Compaq Presario 5010NX w / VistaBasic read any DVD but has problems with CD if I insert a music CD, sometimes it will open right and I can play music. Most of the time he just tells me to "insert a disc", usually open the status bar, but not always. If I close the drawer [or eject and close the tray] from 3 to 15 times, he finally opens the CD. Generally. Sometimes I drop and open it on my old computer Millennium, [which never fails to open the CD].  I bought a cleaning disc, but it still happens. Also, it stopped opening the tray with the manual key (1,200 works tent) and will always open with 'Eject' of the computer, but only with DVD and sometimes will open with the "eject" computer with the CD never if it is empty, so I always keep a known disc "opener" in the status bar. (if I forgot, I use a paper clip)

  I did an online search of the Device Manager for a driver update and he told me that the best software is already installed. I just need a new burner? Why is - that it will work with DVD CD not? driving me crazy. Thank you ps can not find a burner mfgr. says simply "drive SuperMulti DVD with Lightscribe" - pps I tried uninstalling the Device Manager, and then restart the computer - no change.  Haven't tried the support.microsoft.com/gp/cd_dvd_drive_problems diagnostic program no solution I came across a post from someone else who had the same problem [former position & 'uninstall & reboot' was the only suggestion on this one.]   I can't believe that it could be physical burner... why he wouldn't hesitate to read the DVD if it was a physical problem?  Help?
