  I have canon handycam dvd and mini dvd works on it. A month back I recorded the movie and photos on mini dvd with handycam and ran mini dvd on my tecra M5 player, it worked very well.

  Now after 1 month, I have 5 mini DVD with movies and photos that I took for 1 month of vacation country of diffierent, I tried my best but tecra dvd player does not read these mini dvd, label appears instead dvd player cd player when I put the mini dvd in there.

  All the other standard size DVD, CD works good about it. Its complex and as well as irritating.

  Any suggestions?
  Why his messedup?

  Seems that the lens cannot read this miniDVD s. Maybe cannot calibrate the lens of the drive and the miniDVD is so illegible.
  Try the sascha. Maybe you are a lucky man, and it works.
  If this is not the case, try to remove the drive physically from the laptop. Restart the laptop without the drive. The BIOS and Windows shouldn't t recognizes the drive.
  Then stops again, put the drive in the notebook and the startup of the device.

• CD/DVD drive does not read discs on Equium A100

  My cd/dvd drive does not read any discs be it, white, written or commercially written. It opens and closes and is light to show that he is working on. Device Manager indicates that the device is functioning properly.

  Tried the update of drivers, no update available. Tried restoring the system back 1 day and 1 week and 1 month, then and still the problem cannot be corrected. When I put a cd/dvd in the drive and try to access it, it says: D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error.

  Can someone help me I tried everything my friends and I can think, or is it better to send just to toshiba warranty.

  If the solution proposed by James will not help, you should try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager.
  After phone restart the operating system will recognize and initialize the disk again.
  After this review of the procedure if you can read, write the middle.

• Satellite A200 - 23P - mechanic of DVD - rom does not

  I'm sorry for my English in advance this topic! -Thank you

  I have a very big problem with my engraver of DVD (RM).
  I bought SAT A200 - 23P three weeks ago.
  The Win VISTA operating system has been installed. DVD - rom worked well.

  If I have installed Win XP to the second partition on my HARD drive (to install the disk with driver for sata drive in nlite) and installed all the drivers and utilities for Toshiba laptop, I found that my DVD-rom is not working while I press eject button.

  Mechanic of DVD is not responding to eject in XP and not even in the BIOS!
  It is interesting, mechanic DVD is the detection in BIOS, detects in XP, XP operating system votes - mechanic to the DVD works properly - its fable.

  However, if I have installed XP on the second partition, Win Vista does not load :(
  I don't have a second chance for second selection (Vista and XP).
  I now have XP only, even if Vista is on the first partition - I didn't delete it.

  Do you think that the DVD-rom is HW or SW problem?
  I think that, given that the DVD-rom does not in the BIOS - HW error.

  But is very strange, if I install XP from mechanic to the DVD and then close is, DVD - rom does not...:)

  If I manually open and insert the CD, the DVD does not (diode led no blink, just if I turn off the computer, led blinked once).

  PLS help me someone-

  Thank you!

  Hi Michal

  Your question is very strange, I mean the number of CD/DVD drive

  The fact is that the readers of CD/DVD eject function functions should any operating system has been installed on your laptop. It has nothing to do with your software on the HARD drive.

  So I wonder why the eject button works with Vista and not XP preinstalled OS?  :|

  My only plausible explanation is that sometimes there is a bad connection between the laptop and the drive. However the problem could be related to the hardware problem too

  As you see it s not easy to say what's wrong exactly, we can only speculate.

  Now some details about your installation of OS double.

  You cannot choose between Windows XP and Vista because Vista boot manager was obliterated during the installation of Win XP.
  This happened to me also. I installed Win XP on my Satellite and could not start Vista.

  The solution was simple; I used another original DVD of Vista (from my friend) and booted from this DVD. Vista has renewed the Boot Manager, and then I was able to boot Vista.

  Then I downloaded the tool called Easy BCD.
  This tool can change the Vista Boot Manager settings. I've edited and inserted a new Windwos XP OS entry.

  That s it!

• Pavilion p6744y: HP Pavilion p6744y DVD-ROM does not not after installing Windows 10.

  I have recently installed Windows 10 on my Pavilion p6744y. Since installation, the DVD-ROM does not work correctly. This worked perfectly before the upgrade of the OS and is the original drive installed by the manufacturer.

  Spin discs and the light flashes, but there is no response from the computer. DVD - ROM does not appear in Device Manager and has been confirmed as "ENABLED" in the BIOS Setup screen. All wires and cables are attached and tight.

  The HP Support Assistant is installed and confirms that all the drivers and software are up-to-date, like Windows Update.

  Microsoft contacted for support and remote access to the PC. They have attempted to install an updated driver, but have been unable to find newer and easier to apply than the drivers already installed drivers. They were unable to solve the problem and advised me to contact HP. Contact HP is not useful because the PC is out of warranty and they expect me to pay for the support.

  Help, please. I suspect all that I need is a updated driver to make the DVD - ROM communicable with 10 visible Windows.

  I know a little about this stuff, but I'm certainly not a computer "guru". Please keep the simple resposnes with easy to understand by a layman terms.

  Thanks for your help!

  I FOUND A SOLUTION!

  Research in the blogs of support paid off in a big way. A minor registry editing is all it took, and my player works like new!

  Here is the solution. My system is Windows 64-bit 10.

  Resolution 5: Create a registry subkey
  Note to use this method, you must be logged on to Windows as an administrator. If you need help, check that you are an administrator, go tohttp://support.microsoft.com/gp/admin
  Important follow the steps described in this section carefully. Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you edit, back up the registry to restore in case of problems.
  To create the registry subkey, follow these steps:
  Press the Windows logo key + R to open the run. (or right click on the windows down icon to the left)
  Type regedit in the run box, and then press ENTER. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow
  In the navigation pane, locate the following registry subkey:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi
  Right-click atapi, point to new, and then click key.
  Type Controller0 and press ENTER.
  Right-click Controller0, point to new, and then click DWORD(32-bit) value.
  Type EnumDevice1 and press ENTER.
  Right-click EnumDevice1, click on change...
  Type 1 in the value data box, and then click OK.
  Exit Registry Editor.

• My HP DVD/ROM does not appear in the device under my computer Manager or when I scan for readers.

  My HP DVD/ROM does not appear in the device under my computer Manager or when I scan for readers, most of the time.  Every now and then it will be visible and I can use it but 90% of the time it does not exist.  I tried the regedit fix, nothing.  I tried the program Microsoft Fix It, it tells me it cannot locate a DVD/ROM.  I removed, cleaned and reinserted my DVD/ROM drive, but no difference.  I tried everything, except the upgrade to Windows 7... who will be my last resort.

  Hello gargoyle28m,

  If your hardware is not detected to upgrade to Windows 7 is not a resolution. This issue may be caused if the DVD drive is faulty or connections loose on the mother board. You may need to check the connections. I suggest you check if the DVD drive works on another computer. You can contact the manufacturer of your computer to help you with this problem.

  Thank you

• CD/DVD-ROM problems, drive not detected AND the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager

  I'm having serious problems here. My CD/DVD-ROM drive is not detected and will not answer. I can ONLY open the drawer at the beginning of my computer laptop startup. The drive does not appear in my computer and the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager. Therefore, the "uninstall/reinstall" is impossible if the computer behaves as it has never been this drive now or never. Previously, I was able to use it as there was no problem, but someday, it's simply not there.

• CD/DVD-Rom will not read the CD

  I just upgraded from vista to windows 7 Home premium database on my laptop and now my CD-DVD-Rom will not read any CD I put in the drive. He reads that DVD very well so I'm up for a loop now. My drivers are all far better that I can find. I know it's a CD-DVD-Rom, because before I updated I had no problem reading CDs and DVDs. This is a problem because all my anti-virus and other programs are all on CD. I don't know how to fix this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  -Thank you

  Thanks for the post with suggestions. I have tried it all and still had the same problem. I called Dell and got the laptop computer and an hour with a tech restarted my computer and try to fix it, they decided that something in the upgrade process damaged my CDRom and they sent me a new to replace my current one. I'll get it Tuesday and weather post or not, that is the question. Just in case where there are other people out there who might have the same problem.

  -Thank you again for your help

• Laptop Inspiron E1405 media Cntr, CD/DVD-ROM does not recognize DVD

  My CD/DVD-ROM does not recognize when there is a DVD in the drive. I had this problem before, but persistence always overcame the problem, that is, I still put the DVD in over and over again, and then it worked. A week ago, I was able to watch all of a DVD movie, reinserting after about 10 times. But now, it does not recognize a DVD. I tried to roll back the Media Player from v.11 to v.9, but it made no difference. I would appreciate help, like Dell and the India seems unable to help.
