My laptop does not read the dvd, but another laptop computer bed. PL advise solution. Thank you

My laptop is Pressario V2000. My laptop does not read the dvd, but another laptop reads the same dvd. PL is the solution. Thank you

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.

  • 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.

    If your Player reads cd but not dvd which indicates that the material works very well. You need to change the registry inorder to solve this problem.

    1) click on the start menu
    2) click on 'run '.
    (3) type "regedit" and click ok
    4) go to the key of the string "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}.
    (5) delete "upper filters" and "lower in the right window.
    (6) right click on my computer in the start menu.
    7) click on properties
    8) go to the Hardware tab
    9) click on Device Manager
    (10) expand the dvd/cdrom drives
    (11) made a right click the dvd rom and click on uninstall
    (12) restart the computer

    After the reboot, windows should automatically install a ROM clean disc and read DVDs very well if you have the correctDVDdecoders

  • Satellite A100-033 - ODD does not read the CD but DVD

    My CD player has started giving me problems.
    He doesn't read any CD I put in (particularly the CD Audio).

    It plays DVD fine.
    I am also unable to burn CDs that the system does not detect a CD.

    Any suggestions on what I should do?

    Hello

    May be there is dust on the lens of the CD/DVD drive so I recommend cleaning the lens.

    Further, you should try to remove the upper and lower filters in the registry. Is often solved with the CD/DVD drive to check workaround on the Microsoft Web site:

    In the worst cases, the CD/DVD drive must be replaced :(

    The message indicates, "region is different: can be read back this disc."

    What should I do?  Should I buy a Portable DVD player or what?

    =====================================
    DVDs have region codes... (For example, your system may
    be set for region 1 and someone sold you a DVD region 2)

    See the following article for an explanation of DVD region codes:

    DVD region code
    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_region_code

    You can change the region code in your system, but you are
    limited to 5 changes and it will be * stay * on the last change.

    (there are software methods to work around this limitation
    but I suspect they would be illegal)

    If you want to change... See the following link:

    Windows 7 - change DVD region Code
    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-pictures/region-change-on-Windows-7-WMP-DVD/76726250-2350-4F3E-a8fc-469c17732808

    It is possible that one of the media following freeware
    the players would play your drive without changing the
    area code.

    Recently, my Satellite Pro M70 stopped reading some DVDs, specifically verbatim...

    Any ideas?

    WEIRD laser could be at fault, or it is maybe dirty. Try to clean the lens with a Microfiber cloth.

    my touch pad on my laptop does not move the pointer, but when I have my mouse wireless pluged in it will work I was told I could have disabled the touch pad which I have to do to activate it again?

    Hi dove2k,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    You will need to enable the touchpad on the laptop itself.

    Find the area of the touch pad, you will find a button to enable or disable the touchpad.

    If the step above doesn't, try this step.

    Go to control panel > mouse > device settings tab
    Click (or to disable)

    Notes:
    On some models, there is a keyboard shortcut to enable or disable the touchpad. For example, ACER, just do Fn + F7.
    You can click on Reset device if none of these solutions work.

    If you still can't touch pad to work, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer for more information.
