HP Pavilion p7-1234: functional CD/DVD drive will not boot Clonezilla disk recognize

Have three HP p7 in small desktop running Win 7 64 bit. (Avast free version)

None of them will recognize a bootable Clonezilla ISO or Zip, whether on CD/DVD or USB.

Measures already taken:

BIOS set to boot from CD/DVD

In turn the BIOS configured to boot from USB

Have used any compatible version of Clonezilla downloads based on my operating system and the processor, including the generic i686 ISO and Zip. (and makes bootable USB drive)

CD/DVD and USB function perfectly well otherwise. Able to access the other disks and USB media with no problems.

Also able to see the Clonezilla ISO when I look at the CD/DVD drive.

It starts simply what whether Clonezilla.

If someone has encountered this, I would like to share your experience.

Thanks for your time.

One rookie mistake.

Problem:

Bad, I carved the Clonezilla ISO to CD/DVD disc.

Solution:

1. download the ISO Clonezilla appropriate for your computer, on your desktop.
2. place the disc in the CD/DVD drive
3. "right click" on the Clonezilla ISO on your desktop.
4 Select "Burn Image" and follow the default values.

Now you have a proper boot Clonezilla disk.

Next:

1. make sure the BIOS is set to CD/DVD is bootable.
2. place Clonezilla disc in open the tray of the CD/DVD drive.
3. restart the computer and close the CD/DVD tray
4 put your finger on "F9" key and now wherever the blue HP screen appears, press "F9".
5. boot Menu loads.
6. move arrows down to the first line indented under "ATAPI CD/DVD DRIVE...
SATA2 or SATA3 will be according to your system.
7 hit ENTER.

Clonezilla immediately, boots and loads.

I hope it works for you.

    Hello

    Its not unusual for the same problem have an impact on both drives, in fact its very common.

    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.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and

  • My DVDRW DRIVE will not write to disk

    My DVD - RW drive will not write to disk, it is only recognized on my computer as a DVD ROM and CD - ROM only. I looked in Device Manager and there is no question mark by it and he says it's working properly, I had it works normally about 2 weeks ago, can you help me? L.M.Baggley

    If it worked about two weeks ago, you could try a restore point to return the parameters of your system they had previously, by using the system restore. It is in the startmenu, all programs, system, SYSTEM RESTORE tools. Choose a point of older and not the most recent. Alternatively, right - click the icon for your drive and make sure that the recording tab is there, and that registration is enabled on the computer. You will also find it better if you record at a slower speed and not the faster if you want to avoid reading errors. "THE BEST THING TO DO IN THIS WORLD IS A WRONG ANSWER! "I"DON'T"WINDOWS...". »

  • Cloning hard drive with Clonezilla failed, gave a bad sector error message and now the original hard drive will not boot

    Original title: startup problem

    I tried cloning from my hard drive with Clonezilla, and he gave me a bad sector error.  I have since run the hard drive test in bios and it passed.  Anyway, clone has failed, and now the original hard drive will not boot.  My dvd player won't turn when I try to load the Vista repair CD (Vista Home Premium 32 bit).  Clonezilla removes the start settings for the original disc?  And if so, how can I restore it?  The computer starts just a black screen with a cursor at the top left.  When I install the hard drive in a box and connect it to another computer, it shows the partitions and files all seem to be there.

    Hi DougEisenmann,

    Clonezilla is not supported by Microsoft.

    If you are unable to boot from the Vista repair disk then you will need to go into the system BIOS and make sure that it is configured to boot from the DVD drive.

    Check out the link:

  • My CD/DVD drive will not appear in the Device Manager, but present in the BIOS.

    DevCon didn't find it. It will not open even if I don't get to Device Manager and check for changes to the system. I deleted the registry entries upper and lower limit. Any other suggestions? For additional emphasis, he does not show even in the Manager of devices so I cannot restore or reinstall the drivers from there. It might also help that I use Vista Home Premium on a Compaq Presario F755us.

    Hello

    (1) does the BIOS see the main hard disk drive or a secondary hard drive?

    (2) remember to make changes to the computer before the show?

    You know may not be not that most systems are set to show only the splash screen. If you go into the BIOS Setup, it should show the disks that have been detected on two primary and secondary IDE channels.

    Note: the basic procedure to change the setting of the disk controller is to restart your computer and enter the system BIOS. The most common method is to press F2 to enter Setup, (another PC may use a different key). On the BIOS screen, find the setting that offers the AHCI, ATA or IDE and RAID. If the parameter is set to AHCI, change the setting to ATA. Restart the PC on the Windows installation disc

    Warning: Incorrect settings in the system BIOS can cause your PC function incorrectly. If you are not familiar with the configuration of the BIOS of the system, you must contact the PC manufacturer for assistance.

    Try the steps in the following article and check if it helps.

  • Toshiba cd/dvd drive will not read or eject or anything like that!

    Cd/dvd driver for my Toshiba laptop will not work. It lasted about a year, then he became gradually sporadic to read/write or ejection and by last winter, he stopped all together. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers for it, and in Device Manager, it says that the device is functioning normally; every once in a blue moon it will suddenly eject, but then if you put something in nothing happens, even not with the original disks. With the repair utility, it says something like unreadable media, at best. I'm a little confused as to what is happening here, so, what steps should I take to verify if it is indeed the drive disc or something in the software?

    Used speed, the actual brand of discs, burning and if file Live or mastered all come into play.

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
    correctly.

    Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs

    I managed to copy the disc of Windows 8 on an external hard drive using another laptop that can play the DVD.

    Then I attached the external hard drive to my laptop and run Setup from there and installed Windows 8 to my old laptop to Windows XP...

    Thanks for your suggestion.

  • Satellite A500-141 - the CD/DVD drive will not recognize any disk in the status bar

    I watch the DVD yesterday and he played upward halfway through and almost jerky. Ejected and thought no more of him now, the player will not recognize any disc, be it video or sound. I tried a system restore but still the same thing that it is not read disks. Any help appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi quietly,

    If your CD/DVD drive doesn't work, how do you have a system restore?

    Is the CD/DVD drive listed in Device Manager correctly or you see a yellow exclamation mark on it?

    Maybe the lens is dirty and must be cleaned with a Microfiber cloth. Open try CD/DVD and try to clean the lens with a clean Microfiber cloth.

  • CD/DVD drive will not appear on VMWare Fusion.

    Recently I have not been able to use the CD/DVD-ROM drive on vmware fusion. I try to connect the physical device by clicking on the image of the CD rom at the bottom right, select Connect by car, but when I put in a CD, nothing happens.

    When I go into "My computer" the drive icon is not present.

    I tried all settings in Fusion as changes (move to "Reader of CD/DVD physical specify" instead of "Automatically detect physical CD/DVD drive") but still no luck.

    I can't find any help on this issue. Help, please.
