• DVD RW drive disappears from the computer and the Device Manager on Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

  After upgrading Vista to Windows 7, my DVD RW drive will disappear from official view and computing device and a scan for changes on the material or use of the player will not solve. Resolves a reboot of the PC (HP - Sony DVD RW desktop computer).
  It appears in the BIOS and when the first install Windows 7 found and the device manager reported everything is ok. It seems that after a power management feature has occurred and the PC wake up the disc is missing and the only way to return it is a restart.
  Help, please

  Thanks for the info, I had seen it work elsewhere on the net for similar problems with Vista, but not of joy as the either the upper or lower part reg entries appear under this subkey. They do it for the disk subkey but no CDROM

  Hibernation is disabled and I use power management to High Performance with only a screen sleep as a default 20 mintes and the hard drive after an hour of sleep. I upped since the two of them to see if that helps.

• Qosmio F20-137-DVD-ROM drive disappeared when in Windows

  Hi all, I have an embarrassing problem with my DVD - RAM drive. I do not see it in Windows XP, but it worked fine when I boot from the drive - in fact, I just picked up the laptop using the DVD - RAM drive.

  In Device Manager, the DVD-RAM is listed as a carpet * a UJ-840 years and there the formidable yellow typical beside indicating a problem. I tried to get a new driver for this device, but have not been able to find one - the Microsoft driver seems to be the only one available.

  I have run a recovery of product, as when the problem was first of all I thought it was caused by a corrupted driver but, after using DVD-RAM for reimage the laptop successfully by using the DVD-RAM drive, but the same problem occurs. I am really confused as to why it works outside Windows, but even on a new facility full of Windows, it will not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hey mate,

  First of all you n t need another driver for CD/DVD drive. It s a part of Windows and so you won't find any other versions. Don t so worry about this!

  Normally, I suggest that you should try to remove the upper and lower filters but you already have a new clean install of Windows so I think your drive is defective and must be replaced.
  But you can try it: follow of workaround: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060

  In the user manual, you can find a list of compatible drives. You should buy one of this list because not all readers are compatible with all laptops.

• My DVD - RW Drive (drive E:\) Player disappears

  My DVD - RW Drive (drive E:\) Player disappears in my computer and so I can't read CDs. I already follow the methods specified by Microsoft.

  Hello

  -Have you tried to do a system restore?

  -Is a desktop PC or a laptop?

  -What happens when you press the eject button on the cd/dvd drive?

  This could also happen if there is some sort of virus on the computer that made the invisible device in Device Manager.

  So, I recommend you run a complete virus scan and audit system.

  Perform a full scan of service on your system.

  Step 1: Microsoft Safety Scanner

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The Microsoft Safety Scanner is not a replacement for the use of antivirus software that offers continuous protection. For protection in real time, which helps you to protect your home or small office PC against viruses, spyware and other malicious software, download
  Microsoft Security Essentials.

  Important: When performing analysis on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when parsing tent repair this sector if all available on which data can be lost.

  Step 2: Download and install Microsoft Security Essentials from the below mentioned link.

• Satellite P100-188-CD/DVD drive disappear when install iTunes

  I have a P100-188 and when I install itunes (ver 7.7.11 I think) my D drive disappeared.
  If I check in the device manager that there is an error in there against the disc.

  The only way I can get back the player must do a system restore.
  Does anyone know the version of iTunes that I have to install to bypass this or the correct driver for the reader?
  The device has a drive HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4082N installed.

  Thank you very much

  > "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." The error signature shows that: AppName: itunes.exe Appver:8.0.0.35 Modname: unknown Modver:0.0.0.0 Offset: 00008200.

  I remember one of my friends had a similar question. The error always appears after the new installation of iTunes.
  He called me and I tried different things, I reinstalled the application, clean the OS, etc, but anything :( I was really desperate

  Finally, I decided to reinstall the OS to see if there could be something wrong with the Windows installed. And that was the key of the OS has been confused don t I know why, but after the new OS installation (it was a hard way) worked the iTunes

  If you can first try reinstalling iTunes, then clean the operating system using CCLeaner and then try again.
  If this can't help, then a new install of the OS may be necessary!

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
