Media in the CD/DVD drive is not readable (hp DVDRAM GT30L)
Hello guys. This is my first post in this forum.
I already ran the Microsoft fixit CD/DVD drive and the problem is the media in the CD/DVD drive is not readable (hp DVDRAM GT30L). I also tried the DVD in my desktop DVD player and stands so the problem is in the CD-ROM of the laptop.
Hello Blue_Cloud213,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that the computer is unable to read the CD and DVD. Since you reduced the problem to only one computer, please try all the steps in this document from HP: disk impossible reading disks (Windows 7)
Please let me know what happens. Thank you!
Mario

Hello
Well you have studied the issues pretty well. Could be material.
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.A CD/DVD cleaner might help.
CD have a tolerance + - and your must read on the edge outside these tolerances of discs.
They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.Several good info here:

Hi sergeblache,
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.
I understand that you are facing problems to use the DVD drive to read and write disks, we try these steps and check if it helps.
Method 1:
Given that you've tried the Fixit and relocation of the reader, you can read the article and try manual steps to change the upper and lower filters in the registry settings. Check if this may help:
Your CD or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs
Important: The article mentioned above shows you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
For more information, see the article:
Method 2:
If you have installed a third-party DVD burning software, then Uninstall the same and look for the question.
If you need further assistance, please answer and we will be happy to help you.

Hello
1. this happens with all discs or any specific drive?
2. What is the brand and model of your computer?
3. the disc contains scratches?
4. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?
Please run the fixit from Microsoft mentioned in the link below.
http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/cd_dvd_drive_problems/en-us
It seems that the issue is with the CD/DVD drive itself, I suggest you to contact the computer manufacturer for assistance.

What is the make and model of the press you card changed?
You can try the DVD drive in another computer to see if it's a failure?
What is your computer make and model?
I suggest you check the cables connected to the training to see if they are loose.

Recovery system on Satellite M70-204 PSM71E. The CD/DVD drive does not work
Hello!
Can you please give me a help and advice on how to solve the following problems:
I got on the last minor problems for three months with Windows Installer: software updates may not always be performed successfully, an error message was issued by Windows Installer on Quick Time, when I started the computer. Apart from him, the computer has been properly runing. I was intending to restore the system with the Toshiba CD in the coming weeks to correct the problems.
But since yesterday, I had a new problem. The CD drive is not recognized in Windows XP.
I tried to repair the driver from the CD player, following the procedure described by Toshiba. It did not work. I don't know if this is a hardware or a software problem preventing me to recognize and use the CD drive and DVD under Windows XP and I don't know or if I can run even more a restoration process.
_ * 1 / if I run a restore process, I think that, initially, the HD will be formatted. How can I be sure that my computer will be able to read the data from the Toshiba Recovery CD? * _ (I have today a computer that almost works. I do not want to be stuck with a dead computer, if the restore process fails because of the CD driver)
_ * 2 / is it possible to restore without using the internal CD player? (using an external CD drive or an external hard drive) * _
Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
I delighted to hear that you solved this Mr. thank you for the comments!
