  • DVD/CD rom drive reads CDs but does not read the DVD.

    My Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop has a DVD/CD rom drive.  It loads all the CD I want and them automatically opens on the D drive.  When I put in a DVD movie it will not play.  I open my computer, and then look at the D drive, and it does not even recognize that there is a DVD inside but it shows a screen of a CD that I put in there.  This tells me that it works and it has a green light on the side which shows.  Also, when I insert the DVD it makes sounds as it tries to recognize, but then it stops and does not appear.  Can anyone help?  I really appreciate it.  I'm not very savvy computer.  I know that some in this topic because I am a teacher and try to catch up with things, but I'm certainly no computer technology.  Thank you very much!  Let me know if I need to give more info.  I think the reader is Sony CRX835EK but I'm not 100% sure on this one here.

    c. If this isn't the case, then unplug the unit and he reconnected inside the CPU/Tower.
    d. check the result.

    Step 2: If the device is detected in the BIOS, try the following steps:
    a. start your computer and boot to the desktop.
    b. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
    c. select my computer, click the Action menu and click scan for hardware changes.
    d. check if the CD/DVD device is listed in the list.

    Step 3: If the problem persists, restore the computer
    see How to restore Windows XP to a previous state .
    b. Once you have restored the computer, check if the CD/DVD drive is visible.

  • DVD-ROM drive works, but does not appear in 'Computer' and discs can be played

    I totally messed up my DVD - ROM drive. After graduating the famous blue screen of death once yesterday and once today, I thought that my PC settings reset would fix the problem. Then, I pressed F2 when my computer starts and resets all settings. Unforunately, this is something serious to my DVD - ROM drive. Initially, it did not work, so I opened my computer and somehow got it works. But now, it does not detect the disks I insert in there. I get the message "no DVD - ROM drive found."

    Anyone know if it's fixable? I hope I don't have to take my computer somewhere for repair. Unforunately, I don't know the make or model of the hard drive. My the PC features that I think are important are listed below.

    I watch this thread, so if I'm on my PC I will be notified by email of responses.

    Characteristics of the computer:

    Model: Dell Dimension E520
    OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit)

  • Satellite P20 DVD ROM drive may not be recognized

    Hello

    I just replaced my DVD ROM drive, but I had a problem.
    It is a new DVD rom drive I ordered at TOSHIBA also.
    It could not be detected by Windows:
    -Tried to check on Device Manager, not detected
    -Tried to reload the driver, the same problem
    Note:
    Whenever I tried to re - insert the disc, the blue light in the control panel of my P20 beds (I understand, which means that the P20 detects the drive) but I don't understand, is that why Windows XP does not detect it or it does not alarm or error messages.

  • Question about Tecra 510CDT computer laptop CD Rom drive

    Hello

    A friend just bought this laptop second hand. Everything seems very well despite the age. The only problem is when I swap the floppy for the cd rom drive drive. The screen is blank, the cursor hangs and then the laptop crashes completely.

    When I originally put the CD-ROM on the laptop, it seems to be taking place, in that the drivers recognition process where apparently being installed (we have no disk windows 98), so I assumed it was launching this process that everything was fine. But when I put a cd in the drive, the message: there is no cd rom on that computer drive came! I tried several times, and the same problem occurred. I checked the Device Manager and there is no cd drive. I tried to go into the multimedia program, but there is nothing on the cd rom. But there is a cd rom drive help and how to use it. So I'm pretty confused as to what could be the problem. Do I need to get a cd rom drive new/second hand? I thought about the drivers and download them but as we drive to the web I don't have access to the internet. Help with this would be so much appreciated.

    I'm no afficiando on computers, so any information base or advice to help me get started would be great.

    Thank you

    Hello
    This is not an answer to your question but can solve the problem if it is the same that I had.
    In my case, the drive tries to spin but it slips. Only the motor shaft rotates and the drive remains at low revolutions that were not even stationary.
    The problem was caused by the fact that the plastic part (black color) of the mechanism which engages the disc (CD or DVD) slips on the
    motor drive, axle and th couldn't do a full rotation or runs at the specified speed.
    The solution is to delete the article in plastic and put a small amount of super glue on the axle and then put it back.

    Where there is a similar issue, I hope that solve you it like I did.
