    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Hope these helps.

  • Tecra S3 and the replacement DVD drive

    Hello

    Portable model is Tecra S3 PTS30A-03E008
    DVD disc model is UJ - 832
    DVD player reference number is G8CC0002Q120

    The DVD drive no longer works and I'm looking to install a new one. Is the Toshiba Ultra Slim Bay DVD SuperMulti Drive
    Part number - PA3473U-1DV6 the correct replacement drive?

    Thank you

    Warren

    As I see in the paper manuals for your Tecra s user I can see two optical disk drives are listed as compatible:
    MATSU * A UJDA765
    MATSU * A UJ-832

    Reference numbers are not known to me, but I recommend you to use only compatible devices.

  • between my computer and router wireless connection (vista, premiem windows 7, 64 bit)

    Hey I recently had problems with my connection Wireless between my computer and the router.
    Normally off during the night is not connected to my router or on the internet the next day.

    I have been in close contact to my isp provider and have received a new router and reset my wireless Internet services provider site but I'm still having problems. I have also updated my drivers for my wireless on my laptop Hp G62 and have found that it will not cut when I do not shut down or sleep during the night.

    When you try to solve the problem, it will come back with "problem with the adapter or wireless access point and then asked to disconnect the power to the router. After doing this it will be fine all day.
    I do also to turn a blackberry 9000 "BOLD" and see first thing in the morning if the wireless is connected or not.

    ask for help, here is my last option I have been through everything and had an expert look at my computer where he found nothing wrong with my computer or wireless set up settings.

    any help or advice would be great

    Hello

    1. do you have problems connecting with Windows 7 or Vista?
    2. you remember of any change to your computer before the problem?

    Make sure that there is no interference between your router and your computer. For example. Mobile phones, like the mobile signals could conflict with your router signals and therefore no connection to your computer.

    You can uninstall and reinstall the Device Manager wireless network card.
     
    To uninstall the wireless device manager,
     
    a. Click Start, type device manager in the search box of start and press ENTER.
    b. Locate the network adapters and expand the same.
    c. Select the wireless connection, right click and choose uninstall.
    d. restart the computer, if prompted.
     
    Pilots should settle automatically after the computer restarts.

     

    Now you can install the latest wireless drivers and check if this solves the problem.

  • The CD/DVD drive in my laptop is missing or not detected by my Acer Aspire 4520?

    A while ago my laptop Acer fell and the CD/DVD drive pulled after its fall. I thought for sure that it was broken and my laptop. Fortunately it seems not that this was the case and after that put in does what it normally would, the green light would flash and it seemed to work again. However, I never thought not to test with a DVD or CD to see if it actually worked. Is that recently that I started to use CD for games and other and I found the driver to read the discs, but nothing happened thereafter.

    Well for some time now, I tried to find a solution to my problem. The driver seems to work, but when it comes to playing the discs it do anything more. Some of my other programs such as Windows Media Player saying that my laptop is missing the driver CD/DVD. I also went to the menu of F2 from the laptop to the startup and after looking around, I find that there is no entry for the CD/DVD drive and that the entry is empty. I'm not sure why my laptop can't detect the drive. I tried many things such as the Microsoft Fix It, but ends up giving me an error saying that some components are not well read or something similar to that.
    Any help is greatly appreciated and if there is anything that I can provide for any further help I will do it gladly.
    I should also mention that the CD/DVD does not appear in Device Manager.

    Hi Emmanuel,.

     
    It's a hardware problem, your CD/DVD drive is not detected by your computer. I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.
     
    Method 1: Check if your CD/DVD drive is detected in BIOS Basic Input Output System ().

    IMPORTANT: BIOS change / oxide of additional metal (CMOS) semiconductor parameters incorrectly can causeserious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
     
    Method 2: Follow the steps in the link and check if that helps.
     
    You can also try to contact Acer support and check if it helps.

  • Problem of password of account, without that we can connect to the network on this computer. The error indicates, "the trust relationship between this device and the network is no longer valid.

    Hi, I hope you can help with this problem. A friend has 6 computers networked to a Tower Server and have a problem. A worker student put computers into hibernation, and since then, nobody can connect to the network on this computer. The error indicates, "the trust relationship between this device and the network is no longer valid. I tried to get into the pc to try removing network and replace it, but I can't get on the Administrators account because it has been disabled. I'm at a loss on how to proceed. My friend cannot afford a service call, so I'll try to help him.  Thank you

    If the computer is on a domain then there are at least two accounts that can be used to remove the computer from the domain:

    • A domain administrator account.
    • A local administrator account.

    When your friend has launched Windows for the first time after buying the machine, he was prompted to enter the name of an account. This account is created automatically with administrator privileges. He should use it now.
