• I don't see my cd/dvd drive in my computer?

  It's about to get the best of me!  I'm trying to fix HP Pavilion dv9700 with processor AMD windows Vista 64bitt wife. When you insert a cd/dvd in the drive it turns, bends and turns off. I do not see the cd/dvd drive in my computer (drive E :). I can see it in Device Manager and device manager says its working properly. I deleted the upper and lower filters in the registry, uninstalled the drive, reinstalled the drive, the drivers updated, physically removed the drive from the computer and check the connector, everything looks ok. Is the drive itself bad? If so, why then I see it in my computer. I ran a few fix his well they say they fixed the drive sucssefully it is still a problem, and it still does not work. I'm not a big fan of Vista OS, less than one become today!

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
  Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
  RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

• Equium M50: No icon of CD/DVD drive in "my computer".

  Hi all

  I use an equium m50 and I encountered a problem.
  There is no CD in cd/dvd drive icon in the section 'my computer '. I have installed a cd burning software and burned a cd, shortly after the CD-ROM icon disappeared. I've removed the device using Device Manager, and then installed the driver of device again. He said, the drivers have been installed successfully, but cannot find the hardware.

  Also, I get this message now when I click on properties of cd/dvd rom in Device Manager "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) "now that I can't use a cd, the possibility of reinstalling the operating system is also excluded. can someone help me with the problem im facing?

  Thanks in advance

  When you upgrade a computer to Windows Vista or Windows 7 Beta, or install Windows Vista Service Pack, and after a reboot, the computer CD/DVD drive no longer works as expected, or it says driver is not digitally signed, you need to remove the affected filter drivers.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open the registry change (Regedit.exe).
  2. Locate and then click the registry key under:

     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

     Warning
     To make sure that you are in the appropriate registry key slot, make sure that the default data value is the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM and the class data value is CDROM.

     

  3. In the pane, click UpperFilters, and then click Remove.
  4. Click Yes to confirm the deletion of the UpperFilters registry entry.
  5. Do the same with the LowerFilters
  6. Exit the registry editor and restart the computer.

  Only he, the CD/DVD should now work as expected.

• DVD drive no longer works on the Satellite X 200

  Hello

  Although my laptop X 200-191 is just 3 weeks, this afternoon the DVD player suddenly stopped working. When I insert a dvd, the drive makes sounds like it will play the DVD, then stops and nothing more happens. When I click on the DVD drive in 'my computer' section, the Player opens and asks you a DVD... It will not play music cd's.

  I just installed a new (HD) driver for the DVD drive on the toshiba site, which should be compatible. I also tried to reinstall the previous driver, but the problem persists. I can't use the CD recovery either, for the reader DVD does not have to start the recovery cd...

  Can anyone help?

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  I guess that you do not see the CD/DVD drive in MY computer area.
  Right?

  I think I can help you
  First go to Device Manager and search for CD/DVD drive.
  Select this device and delete it from the list.

  Now, open the registry (type regedit in the search) and remove the filters above and below to the following registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet\Control \Class \{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

• Missing DVD drive Aspire 5733Z

  I have an Aspire 5733Z with a DVD from Toshiba burner in it.  Running Windows 7 Home Premium.  It just stopped working when I started my diet this morning.  The keyboard and the trackpad had stopped working as well.  I used the F8 screen to restore to last good configuration.  It restored the keyboard and trackpad.  But my DVD burner does not work now.  I had before, used to run a live Linux CD and find the post on the forum who advised on the edge of good configuration was last used.

  But as I was closing the live LINUX CD, he told me to remove the media from the drive and close it, as I did, then click on system restart, I did.  Once I got into Windows, keyboard and trackpad worked again, but now my DVD drive was not.  I did a google search and went to a Microsoft forum (you are bound to get good advice it right?) ) and I followed their instructions to go into the registry and remove a couple of values - carefully followed the instructions, so I know I have done this correctly.  That did not work.  Then I followed their next step if this does not work, even if I did wrong I think.  Rather than remove the driver, I deleted the DVD in the Panel.

  When I realized what I did, I used the control panel to detect changes on the hardware and it reinstalled a driver of the engraver DVD Toshiba but I'm not sure that he reinstalled the right one.  He installed one for a Toshiba DVD-RAM burner, I don't think that this model supports RAM, so it's probably the wrong driver.

  Can someone point me to the correct driver to install? Maybe help me to understand this mess? Understand why the DVD does not work?  Windows it is grateful, but the door does not open.  You can press the button on the door will not open.  Right-click on the DVD drive in my computer, and in the context menu you can click on eject - will not open.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

  If anyone has this problem, try to reinstall your chipset drivers and remove the DVD drive and reinstall.  One or other of these things fixes this problem for me.
