Missing DVD drive Aspire 5733Z

I have an Aspire 5733Z with a DVD from Toshiba burner in it.  Running Windows 7 Home Premium.  It just stopped working when I started my diet this morning.  The keyboard and the trackpad had stopped working as well.  I used the F8 screen to restore to last good configuration.  It restored the keyboard and trackpad.  But my DVD burner does not work now.  I had before, used to run a live Linux CD and find the post on the forum who advised on the edge of good configuration was last used.

But as I was closing the live LINUX CD, he told me to remove the media from the drive and close it, as I did, then click on system restart, I did.  Once I got into Windows, keyboard and trackpad worked again, but now my DVD drive was not.  I did a google search and went to a Microsoft forum (you are bound to get good advice it right?) ) and I followed their instructions to go into the registry and remove a couple of values - carefully followed the instructions, so I know I have done this correctly.  That did not work.  Then I followed their next step if this does not work, even if I did wrong I think.  Rather than remove the driver, I deleted the DVD in the Panel.

When I realized what I did, I used the control panel to detect changes on the hardware and it reinstalled a driver of the engraver DVD Toshiba but I'm not sure that he reinstalled the right one.  He installed one for a Toshiba DVD-RAM burner, I don't think that this model supports RAM, so it's probably the wrong driver.

Can someone point me to the correct driver to install? Maybe help me to understand this mess? Understand why the DVD does not work?  Windows it is grateful, but the door does not open.  You can press the button on the door will not open.  Right-click on the DVD drive in my computer, and in the context menu you can click on eject - will not open.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

If anyone has this problem, try to reinstall your chipset drivers and remove the DVD drive and reinstall.  One or other of these things fixes this problem for me.

    Hello

    You install a version of Win 7 retail or OEM manufacturer on your system?

    I had the same problem. The fix was to get into the BIOS and change the RAID SATA emulation.

    Doing so allowed installation of Win 7 to continue and install.

  • Maybe missing DVD driver

    Hello! I have had my all-in-one Pavilion for almost a year now and discovered pretty quickly that it does not play the DVD or Blu - ray discs, despite saying that he should. I am able to play the music of dics with no problems, however. I don't think it's a big deal then, but now it's starting to upset me and I'd like to find a solution before the expiry of my big computers.

    A quick search on google shows me this a fairly common problem, but none of the corrections suggested do anthing for me.

    When I insert a DVD, it runs constantly and it seems he stops every 15 seconds before resuming. The disks never appear in my computer as a playable file and trying to force a media player to play the results by mistake. What I get behaves like a folder. I show a folder named VIDEO_TS full of unrecognized file types and a file named desktop.ini

    I don't know what to do, this is the reading of the disc but used to play movies. Missing something?

    If it's showing a VIDEO_TS, so it is read, at least partially, a DVD.  It could be the playback software is missing or damaged, or the disc is dirty or has failed.  To try the VLC Player for free.  If you really want to check the drive to be able to read a DVD, try Imgburn.  If you can get some info of the DVD with either people, report with the results.

  • Vista Home and missing DVD drive

    I get this problem too-it is spent as I don't know how many times whenever I stop and start at my office. Mr Fixit works only once. Real frustrated too that I think I have an external DVD burner instead.  I find that this usually happens after a few updates of windows.

    Did you do the installation of updates of MSUpdate pilot error?
    In hardware devices if there is a yellow exclamaition mark next to the dvd player, rt click on uninstall and then restart
    Or it could be something as simple as a bad disc connection

  • The CD/DVD drive in my laptop is missing or not detected by my Acer Aspire 4520?

    A while ago my laptop Acer fell and the CD/DVD drive pulled after its fall. I thought for sure that it was broken and my laptop. Fortunately it seems not that this was the case and after that put in does what it normally would, the green light would flash and it seemed to work again. However, I never thought not to test with a DVD or CD to see if it actually worked. Is that recently that I started to use CD for games and other and I found the driver to read the discs, but nothing happened thereafter.

    Well for some time now, I tried to find a solution to my problem. The driver seems to work, but when it comes to playing the discs it do anything more. Some of my other programs such as Windows Media Player saying that my laptop is missing the driver CD/DVD. I also went to the menu of F2 from the laptop to the startup and after looking around, I find that there is no entry for the CD/DVD drive and that the entry is empty. I'm not sure why my laptop can't detect the drive. I tried many things such as the Microsoft Fix It, but ends up giving me an error saying that some components are not well read or something similar to that.
    Any help is greatly appreciated and if there is anything that I can provide for any further help I will do it gladly.
    I should also mention that the CD/DVD does not appear in Device Manager.

    Hi Emmanuel,.

     
    It's a hardware problem, your CD/DVD drive is not detected by your computer. I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.
     
    Method 1: Check if your CD/DVD drive is detected in BIOS Basic Input Output System ().

    IMPORTANT: BIOS change / oxide of additional metal (CMOS) semiconductor parameters incorrectly can causeserious 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.
     
    Method 2: Follow the steps in the link and check if that helps.
     
    You can also try to contact Acer support and check if it helps.

  • "A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing."

    The product name is HP G6 1331sa / A8M93EA #ABU

    OS - Windows 7 Edition Home Premium x 64

    Error message

    If you do not see the image, the link is http://prntscr.com/18s2dm

    What I try to do is to install a new copy of Windows 7 Professional x 64 Microsoft. I have the motivation to not use recovery discs and I have done this before on different computers and so are aware of having to reinstall the drivers

    Anyone know where I can download the driver for the "CD/DVD drive device driver? Checked on the support page for this laptop, found nothing

    The recovery discs work very well, but I don't want to use

    Thanks for reading,

    -James

    Hi, James:

    Most likely the media you use is incomplete or a bad burn to the DVD if you have the installation media of the ISO download on Digital River.

    There is no missing drivers. W7 has all the drivers needed to install on your model.

    Follow these instructions and see if you can get W7 installed in this way.

    I would use the MS tool USB ISO.

    Make sure you absolutely get the entire ISO file when you see the download complete message.

    Sometimes, he reports the download is finished and your ISO file is a lot smaller that what he said was downloading.

    Use the W7 pro product key you have.

    Use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. The link below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://download.CNET.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-download-tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • Satellite L40 PSL48E - missing CD/DVD drive

    What should I do?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    This problem is known to me and she related to the incorrect registry key.

    First, you must remove the drive CD/DVD from the list of devices in Device Manager.
    Then, you should access the registry and should remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Finally, restart the laptop and check the drive after Vista acknowledged again.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P305 - DVD drive missing registry method attempted

    My satellite P305 lost the DVD icon in my computer.

    So I tried to fix it by using the 'Register' method I have seen anywhere in the forums, but it didn't work as I have found a 'low' I don't think that the name but not the second registry value 'superior '. So now I can't use my PC DVD and I hope that I can reinstall the driver, although I doubt it.

    The computer Troubleshooter said the problem is that the registry file is damaged or missing (before I tried to fix it). I had been using a burner and burn a DVD that took a lot of time to complete the level of 99%, so I clicked to close the program thinking that the information was already coded on the DVD and there is nothing for the program to do but stop, but it did not work and the program have remained frozen. The program I used was called Cheetah Burner, in case you are interested in knowing. So I ejected the disk (perhaps after control-alt-delete, not sure) and probably restart the computer again, to see that the program had taken place.

    So please tell me how to deal with this, soon. I need to solve this young to continue working!

    Thank you

    Ash.

    Hey Ash,

    I think you mean the upper and lower filters in the registry. Is this fair?
    Normally, this should help about problems with the CD/DVD drive but you've already tried this?

    In your case, I would try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager (right click > uninstall). After the reboot the drive will be recognized again and maybe it works.
    In addition, you n t need another driver because it s a part of the operating system. Updated this driver peut t.

    Another interesting thin: you can boot from a disc?

  • A required cd/dvd drive device driver is missing. Please insert now

    Hello

    I have;

    HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

    Lk960EA #abu

    This is the AMD version.

    My hard drive is dead (clunkcing, and when I joined this office machine, windows cannot load, it is not found in acronis either), so I put a 750 GB sata 2.5 drive replacement in an online store.

    When I try and install window 7 (via a USB, made using windows 7 USB / dvd tool, own iso ditial River) it still produces this message

    "A required cd/dvd drive device driver is missing. If you have a floppy drive, cd, DVD or usb flash drive please insert it now.

    Now, it's not to do with the dvd but actualy need the driver for the SATA controller drive, I checked the download page, but I can't find (the only driver chipset's usb 3.0)

    Now before anyone jumps and said 'just restore', I can't that HP didn't give a CD but rather to put the recoevery on the disk THAT DIED HARD, EXCELLENT WORK.

    Laptop computer comes with software to create your recovery discs & you usually invites shortly after setting up to make the whole. Are you sure you don't to do the game and put away them? Happened.

    Some have solved the problem that you are experiencing now by changing the usb port used.

Help.

    You need an external DVD drive to get the repair will.

    Also the device you own does not seem to have built in the recovery partition. I'm not sure about later versions of this machine, however, it is best to check with HP.

    The problem is that there is a corruption of the registry on your OS or the system could not find where the registry files are due to system files or boot corrupted file.

    A repair can be made with an external DVD, the worst case, is that if the repair doesn't work you reinstall Windows.
