Lenovo Slim Portable USB DVD drive burner does not work

I had previously portable Slim USB DVD burner, and it worked perfectly with a Thinkpad, I had. However, the device doesn't seem to work with my new Lenovo twist (s230u). There is absolutely no response from the computer. I checked the DVD and it works perfectly.

This device needs a driver for it to work? I checked the Device Manager and there seems to be an 'unknown device', but WIndows is unable to find the proper drivers. I also can't seem to find anything on the Lenovo Web site. Any suggestions?

you connect the device using usb 2 (one for the signal?) and another for extra power

  • Silent CD/DVD drive acoustic does not work on Satellite P100-194

    Satellite P100-194 (Win XP MCE, Bios-Version 2.20)

    Given that excessive vibration of the drive DVD-Multi-with some of my DVDs and CDs, I would not use the acoustic silencer, but West no difference between Silent Mode and Normal Mode.

    I tried to reinstall the silent acoustic tool, without success. As this problem starts to get really annoying, any help would be appreciated.

    I wonder if the built-in-multi-DVD player is sensitive by default (sometimes entire Notepad starts vibrating combined with a noise level very high during playback of a dvd)?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi WB,.

    I think that acoustic silencer simply limited the rate at which information can be obtained on CD/DVD in order to prevent the rotation high speed that can sometimes occur when extracting the CD or the DVD to the hard drive. If you're just watching DVDs (or listening to CD, by the way) then the speed of the drive will be not particularly high because once the buffer is full so there is no need to read more data from the disc itself. If you look at the car LED, you'll see that it only lights intermittently ever.

    The speed of the drive will decrease during playback, as the laser reads information from the outer part of the disc surface.

    The presence of noise and vibration normally indicates that the disk is "eccentric" or is not set centrally in the reader, and this may indicate a possible problem with the clamping mechanism itself. However, it is always worth checking that the center hole of the disc itself has no Burr or pieces of materila which he would lift off, and it is also useful to check if the label of the disc (assuming that it is a type of stick on paper) is properly attached and has no loops or bubbles in it since this may also cause noise of air.

    I have the experience of a couple of game of CD-ROM discs that cause a lot of noise and vibrations in my book and recording, I found that the central hole was slightly shifted.

    Kind regards

  • My CD/DVD burner does not work after installing Windows 7.

    Hello.

    I recently installed Windows 7 on my laptop (about 2 weeks ago), initially delivered with Windows Vista.

    The facility is perfectly, and I enjoyed the simplicity of the new operating system.

    Everything was going well for about 2 weeks.

    I was able to burn CDs and DVDs.

    But today, when my father asked me to burn a CD for him, Windows Media Player 12 says that I had to connect a burner and restart Windows Media Player 12.

    I restarted the program, which did not work.

    I restarted my computer, that didn't work.

    I uninstalled my CD/DVD burner drivers and reinstalled them back on and I thought that WMP12 had started working.

    But when I put the blank disc inside my laptop and started the burn, my computer gave me a message there was an error in burning the disc, and I had to close WMP12.

    When I got the farm, WMP12 and then tells me to connect a burner and restart the program.

    After that, I looked for the drivers online set to level, or to the bottom of the slope to.

    But none of them worked.

    After that, I talked with a HP technician who told me that it is better to stick to the pre-installed operating system that comes with a computer and not downgrade or upgrade manually.

    She also said that because my computer was made for Windows Vista, it was the compatible operating system for my internal hardware.

    It gives me no drivers or anything to install.

    I should have come to Microsoft first, because now I realize that HP has nothing to do with Windows 7.

    If Microsoft, I ask you:

    When you install Windows 7 on an original Windows Vista laptop and that your CD/DVD writer works for about a week, then it stops working...

    What should I do next to fix this? :(

    Please help ~!

  • After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer

    After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer. Also I can't 'manage' my computer because I do not have "permissions". I tried a fix he 45071 and it did nothing.

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) (including free evaluation versions are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.) If NIS has been installed for 3 years, you have NIS update at least once and maybe twice (e.g., NIS 2009 > NIS 2010 > NIS 2011).

    [You may want to print these instructions for reference offline. If a step said to reboot, reboot.]

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) viaControl Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of NIS 2011 (using your product ID, if need be) & reboot. CF. http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    NOTE: Do NOT activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate (Norton) until you get a prompt "no update more".

    8. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.

    I know that this subject has been discussed previously and I have read in this thread and tried almost all of the suggested solutions, but my CD drive still does not work.

    I didn't want to add to a long thread, so I posted again.

    The only proposed solution, I have not tried was 'remove your device manager IDE/SATA controller' as my Device Manager lists an IDE ATA/ATAPI controller instead.

    Any suggestions?

    * Original title: SUPPORT of the PILOTS LOSE INTERNET.

    My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    What do you mean by "driver support?

    If you have installed one of these offers of support software driver, you have installed malware.  The vast majority of them no useful software and installing a lot of malware on your computer.

    The drivers are not the soft thing you should normally be updated.  I recommend the updated drivers only in the case of a problem that has to solve, and it's rare.

    Is the ONLY source, you should consider for driver updates or OEM support site.  Even those who sometimes go way overboard in trying to update the drivers.  The latest Dell systems are equipped with updated software that checks for new updates every day.   In most cases, drivers are rarely updated after the first year of a product.
