• Problem with playing video games, DVD and CD audio with windows Vista.

  I had a problem to read these types of discs with my hard drive. It does not recognize that there is a disc at all. This ONLY happens with new discs I get, for example by trying to install a new video game or download a new album that I just got. If I want to play a previously installed game I put game disk in and it works perfectly fine. This only happens with new games that I have not yet installed. E.g. I want to play starcraft, previously installed. I put the cd in starcraft and the game appears as usual. But if I want to install starcraft II nothing happens when I put StarCraft II in the disk drive, even if I go to my computer and double click on your drive, it just opens the CD door and asks to put a disc in when we're already here.

  I tried MR. Fix and it recognizes that there is a problem but is unable to repair. I tried to uninstall the disk driver and not the fixed not restart, but who either.

  Hello

  You have disk 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.

  A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

  -----------------------------------

  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.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive

  Use DevManView to locate the CD/DVD in the registry (be careful and do a prior Restore Point)
  nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

• HP 15 Notebook P: dvd player not recognized

  Hello

  First of all, for several days, I've been able to extract the contents of the CD into my iTunes library.  Today after downloading and installing some updates, I have been unable to rip a CD into my iTunes.  I checked "my computer" "" and it does not show DVD drive under 'discs and devices' when I insert a CD.   I did find it and utility problems fix in my control panel and the following appeared.

  Troubleshooting failed to automatically solve all problems.  You will find more details below.

  Problems encountered:

  Could not found any material changes - detected!

  When I received the updates, has lost the driver for my DVD - RW drive?  How should I do?

  Hello

  In this case, the required driver is provided by the operating system, so there is no separate download.

  Were there a UpperFilters entry?

  If there is and you deleted, try the following.

  Right-click the icon in the Start Menu, select (Admin) command prompt and click 'Yes' to the uac prompt.  In at the prompt, type the following command and press ENTER.

  sfc/scannow                (Note that there is a space between sfc and /)

  Let the entire process, then the output type and press ENTER.

  Restart as the laptop and let windows load completely.

  Hold down the Windows key and press R

  In the run box, type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER.

  In the Device Manager window, expand CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives, right-click the drive and select uninstall - when the device has been uninstalled, click the icon 'Search for hardware changes' (usually just below help in the toolbar).  Let windows reinstall the disc and see if it works now.

  If the same error is always present in the device status area, try to run Microsoft 'Fixit' at the following link.

• (Redirected) Alienware M17x R4: Windows7 not detecting SATA DVD/CD internal optical drive, game dvd stuck inside.

  Hello, I need help here because I can't really understand what causes the problem.

  I inserted a BioShock 2 legit installation DVD, and my CD/DVD drive does not detect. I tried to take the drive by pressing the eject ODD button, but nothing happened.

  Under 'My Computer' my drive does not appear.

  In Device Manager, it does not show any CD/DVD player either.

  Control of my computer

  

  I took a lot of steps trying to find out what is happening, and I thought it was a problem of software based.

  Ran the Dell diagnostics, Fix It, started and checked in safe mode and pretty much everything what they advised me to do in the guides.

  One step, I am committed not, where do I look for the registry subkey 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}' and change the filters upper and/or lower, because there is no filters to change.

  Photo of my registry editor

  

  The last step, I got added the following subkey to atapi in regedit.

  

  When you pull up my laptop, I hear my work in the car. During the ejection of pressing, looks like she is about to eject the disc, but nothing has yet come out.

  The CD/DVD drive is recognized in the BIOS but does not appear in my device manager. It becomes clear to power. In the BIOS, it mentions "SATA ODD MATSHITARV11 Downloader". It is also displayed in Intel RST.

  

  I don't have that a single HARD drive on my laptop, and in my BIOS my SATA operations are on RAID. It would make a difference if I switch to AHCI? Could it be a loose connector causing this problem of detection for my OS? If so, isn't weird that my BIOS is always detect? I am able to boot from the CD/DVD, but when I do just start of my storage drive as he always does.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  My brand-new Satellite P300-1FN loaded some software using the DVD player ok, but now when I put any disk in is not automatically run, but the drive seems to run to the top and then a pop up tells me after going computer-> DVD player to get access - burn a disc and wants to get in shape.

  The disks I put in are game DVD and other software to load but they all give the same pop window.

• My DVD drive does not recognize DVD game discs.

  My NEC ND-4550-reader DVD - RW does not recognize DVD game discs.
  He has no problem reading movie DVDs and music CDs or access data CD and DVD burnt with data on them.
  I removed and let XP Reinstall the device and high-low filters removed the registry etc nothing works.
  I made a copy of a DVD game on another PC and it is recognized and install my PC.
  All DVD discs work very well on the other PC.
  I am running Windows XP Professional with SP2.
  MS Fixit controls indicate no problems.
  This would be a matter of software protection?
  All tried game DVDs are official records and not copies.
  The NEC ND-4550 uses cdrom.sys as pilot.

  Finally, I replaced the drive for a new one (Pioneer DVR-S18L) and everything now works as it should.
  So I suspect that it's a hardware problem and not one that can be resolved by any of the Windows settings.

• Mu Qosmio G multi DVD drive does not burn anything

  My Matsu * a uj - 846 s doesn't seem to burn any cd or DVD at all.

  I think it may have started when I updated the firmware. game DVD's fine, but playing CDs already burned on the same drive seems to be a problem because it does not recognize the data written on the subject.
  Other external CD drives can read when connected to the laptop even.

  If someone had the same problem and especially someone can help with this problem?

  Can you please tell us what was the reason for the firmware update?

  Hello

  My Tecra A8 has started giving me problems when I want to read a DVD/CD.

  If I launch the system with a disk in the drive, then explore correctly reads and shows the details of the data on the disc, though it may be music, games, DVD, movies etc. but when I go from drives, the new drive is not read disc that already contains data. It opens a popup and start the procedure for the preparation of a new blank disc. It shows all information data to a disc, if the disc is inserted, after the OS has started up?
  I thought that maybe it's a driver that does not work properly?

  Help, please

  Thank you

  What is happening or what appears on the disc if access you the data on the CD by workstation-> CD/DVD drive?

  This problem occurs with all CD or only single data CD?
