Message "Insert disc" DVR/RW

My DVD RW drive use to work properly. I could burn CDs and I could look at the data on previously burnt discs. I was also able to read music CDs. Have not already watched the DVD on it. Now, nothing works. I get the following message-

"Insert a disc.
Please insert a disk into drive E ".

The DVD/RW drive appears in my "My Computer" and is clickable. Once I have add the drive, the green bar state charges, but nothing happens. I can hear the disc spinning inside but no results. I tried a writable disc and one and regular music CD and disks I have photos stored on. Nothing has worked.

I ran the microsoft fix for the two questions and he has not read or the other disk. I don't know what the problem is. I made a few other fixes and it says the drive exists and happens as update, but still does not. Device Manager says it's working properly. I tried to update the drivers, and it does not solve the problem. I tried a system restore, it did not work. I tried to uninstall the software, and let Vista rediscover after restarting and it did not work as there does not seem to be uninstalled when I told him to do it on the Device Manager. I also went the registry keys to check filters down and that no longer works. I am at a loss!

Hello

A CD/DVD cleaner 'could' 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.

===============================

Step 2: You have disc 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.

Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
the correct registry entries for your car.

Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
the parameters.

    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 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. Can burn you
    a mastered CD and a DVD mastered on this computer and laptop and other computer
    machines? Can you do the same on the laptop and play in this machine?
