my computer does not read the Insert the disc inserted flash drive/request

This is the first time that I had this problem. I insert the flash drive in the ubs port and the computer asks me to insert the disc. I right click on drive H and click Open and asked to insert the disk in the computer.

Hi dpvhouse,

1. This only happens when using the Flash Player?

You can try to change the drive letter and check.

a. right-click on my computer and choose Manage

b. click on disk management

c. right-click on your USB key and select 'change drive letter and paths '.

d. reinsert the flash drive to the computer and see if it works

Hope this information is useful.

    Try another DVD to verify that your laptop can read at least the other DVD.  If he can't play other DVD's then you need to replace the DVD - CD ROM drive supplied with your Pressario.

    Another thing you can try is to check fingerprints or scratches on the DVD, some DVD players are more sensitive than others.

    As the CD/DVD drive does not read the CD, we need troubleshoot CD player. We do not think that Windows Installer is related to the CD player.
