MY DVD DRIVE DISAPPEARED FROM 'DISCOVER' HOW DO I GET IT BACK

It worked very well for some time and then I inserted a dvd then everything about the dvd in Explorer just disappeared and the disc was stuck inside. It's just like if the power has been removed by the player - for example no lights

I use a desktop computer - Got it fixed. It was a power supply problem, connected a spare power tail and everything is back to normal

Thank you

    Windows 8 was downloaded beforehand as a test pplace for Windows XP and then paid for.  From there, I managed to create a Setup disk.  Now, five months later, my motherboard failed taking with it my CPU and RAM, but leaving intact system disk.

  • Re: Satellite L650-11F, DVD drive disappeared Windows 7 after that BIOS installed

    Hello

    I would like to ask for help about this problem:

    Today one of the programs from TOSHIBA, that came with my laptop (L650-11F), warned me about an update of the BIOS (v1.80) after download and install my DVD drive disappeared from Win7 and it has a continuous yellow light on it. It does not even open when I press the eject button.

    I have however maybe install the old version 1.60 back would help, but TOSHIBA does not keep older drivers version apparently.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello!

    Restart your computer. During the startup, at the beginning, press the F2 key to enter the BIOS Setup. In the configuration, press F10 to restore all the default BIOS settings. Save the changes and exit.

    Post here if your problem solved.

    Kind regards.

  • Portege A600-133: DVD player disappears from my computer

    Hello

    I have a laptop Portege A600-133.
    First of all, it is slow at the opening of my computer screen.

    Second: after ejecting a disc dvd or cd, Windows still shows the contents of the disc, the system hangs for a while, a USB unplug sound can be heard and the dvd player disappears from Windows (in my computer / Explorer / Device Manager)

    What this may be?

    I did already the round of upper/lower filters in the registry, but it does not solve the problem...
    I opened the computer laptop and checked the wiring to the dvd drive, cleaned the contacts, supported on the connectors.

    But the problem is still there...
    OS = Windows XP SP3

    Kind regards

    Arjan

    Hello

    My first idea was to remove the upper and lower registry key filters, but it seems that you have already done this.

    Nevertheless, here is a knowledge of MS on the upper and lower filters article mentioned.

    Hmm if the unit is not present in the device manager then this means that the device is not connected or he's dead

    You should check if the ODD (optical disc) is recognized in the BIOS.
    You should also check if it of possible to boot from the bootable CD.

    If this is not possible then it may mean that your WEIRD malfunction

  • CD/DVD writer disappeared from the Office

    I'm new to this, so please be patient. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium OS on a Dell XPS M1210 laptop. I tried to burn my first DVD. A window appeared in windows media player, saying that I had to install a burner/player. The ICON for the drive disappeared from my office. I can't find anything anywhere. I had just finished burning files to a CD - R disc in the 'Master Disc' configuration, with success. Dell support site is down at the moment.

    I can't find any software for the drive. You can use some of your skills!

  • My "home" button has disappeared from my toolbar; How can I get that back?

    Recently, my mousepad "slipped" and sent my cursor somewhere in my toolbar without my wanting to go. Before I even saw what happened, I clicked somehow something on my toolbar that makes my home page icon just disappear - this little house. Combustion chamber always opens to the home page, I want it, but the convenience of coming back to this home page went without my small home icon. Help: where it went, and how do I get it back?

    Hi, moracili!

    If the Home button is not anywhere on the browser itself, try this:

    1. Click the menu button

      and select "Customize".

    He is available for selection from there?

    If so, just put where you want.

    If not, write back.

  • Add my button to view ons had disappeared from my navigation bar. It was the CAP as a piece of the puzzle. How can I get it back?

    I am running Firefox 20.0.1 with Windows 7 on my laptop. Room button shaped puzzle that displays my Add ons has disappeared from my navigation bar. How can I get it back? I tried to go through the button "Customize" from the toolbar on the menu drop down, but the icon is not there. In addition, some other add ons that I downloaded appear anywhere, even on my toolbar add-on.

    You can also right click on the navigation toolbar and click 'Add on bar' in the context menu.

  • The address bar has disappeared from the top of a tab object that I opened. How can I get it back?

    The address bar has disappeared from the top of any tab, I opened, so there is nowhere to enter a web address. Could I have accidentally made it happen? How can I get that back?

    Just to be clear, it is not on the tab bar is? (It's the new style in Firefox 4 and 5).

    To show or hide the toolbars, you can use the old view menu.

    If you have the orange Firefox button, press the Alt key to temporarily show the classic menu bar.

    Menu view > toolbars > check the Navigation bar

    If you view the navigation toolbar, but it is incomplete or damaged, you can reset your toolbars.

    Menu view > toolbars > customize

    In the great dialog box with the icons, to the bottom, click on restore by default.

    Does this help?
