Missing DVD/CD player

I am operating XP Professional, and even if I am able to burn and backup my files, I found the other day that my CD/DVD drive has gone completely out of my system. I went into the Device Manager and find that's simply none the case on my computer. I opted to try to reload the drivers, but the player itself will not open one of my drives. Can I burn my data to go back to using Roxio, but reading discs, do not. I downloaded the peripheral FixIt and wen tthru stages and multiple processes I found throughout Microsoft questions and answers... and everything known to man google how to solve this problem, or at least locate that right by car down to remove the filters above and below as one of the requested... forums and restart , but still the player has not reappeared. Help, please! Apart from reformatting my C: I am at a loss what to do. Please don't tell me to reinstall my OS and or reboot. Although it opens and closes, it cannot read a disc at this point. Oh I have drives C, E, F, G, H, I have on my computer and none of them will open the CD, while a disc is inserted. Misconfig, diskmgmt.msc and devmgmt.msc the CD/DVD drive does not lack either...

Thank you

Hello

· What is the number and the model of the computer?

I suggest you to check if the DVD drive is detected in the BIOS and get back to us for the information. To start with the BIOS, you can consult the manual provided by the manufacturer or go to the manufacturer site.

Note: changes to the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  • Satellite L300-H02: DVD/CD player don't work no-error message 39

    Hi all

    I just bought a Toshiba laptop, Vista Premium Edition family and after a massive Windows Update to download, DVD-CD player didn't work. Error message 39, driver damaged or missing. The driver isn't missing, so it must be corrupted. Am savvy with regedit on the dismantling of upper and lower filters in the registry, except haven action t deleting again, because he doesn t seem to be a upper filter listed. Only the lower filter.

    The information also indicates that you may lose functionality in certain programs such as CD recording programs. In this scenario, you must reinstall the affected programs. which is a problem, because Vista etc. has already been loaded and any other software provided with the laptop.

    I have a little chicken to go ahead and remove the lower filter registry entry, not because there are no upper entry to remove, I have heard some people cannot write to CD after removing the filters in the registry of m.

    Where can I get information about the CD-rom drive for this model: pslboa - 08 h 022?

    It is not any information about it in system information.

    Thanks in advance people, Anniebird

  • After burning DVD torrent, download the last 30 minutes of the film is cut off during playback on a DVD DVIX player

    I've been downloading movies and burn them on DVD for awhile. Recently, after burning them and play them on a DVD DVIX player, they stop with 30 minutes left film and light up in the next movie on the disc. When played on my computer via Windows Media throughout the film is there but not sound.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    If the movie file is complete... I don't know why the Divx player
    would fail to play to the end. Have you tried burning one
    file on a DVD just to see if he could play all the way to the end?

    DivX player is also compatible Xvid? You can use the
    utility to determine if your videos are free Xvid:

    You don't have to install it... just unzip the file and
    GSpot.exe left click to launch.

    As for the sound issue on your computer... maybe you need
    an AC3 Filter and also you have the Xvid codec.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
