• CD/dvd drive not detected by windows

  my reader of cd/dvd in my computer hp laptop dv6000 is not detected by windows. It is powered, both the BIOS and Device Manager detects it, but windows doesn't

  IM on Windows Vista Home Premium.
  I had this problem before and I managed to fix it by unplugging and reconnecting the Cd/dvd drive (nothing to lose, no more warranty), but after doing a system restore, the problem resurfaced again.

  The hard drive is a Toshiba MK1637GSX ATA Device
  I tried to use the pages of Microsoft support without success. I have no upper and lower filter.
  I already tried with also Device Manager nothing doesn't.

  Help, please!

  Hello

  Please start from the top and do it, even if you've done it before as is often the
  all operations which solves the problem.

  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.

  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.

• HP v125w 2 GB drive flash not detected by windows

  My flash drive is not detected by windows what should I do

  I have a HP v125w 4 GB flash drive that works on Windows 2000 and 7.  However, I also have a disk 16 GB flash of v125w HP which works on Windows 7, but was not recognized by my system Windows 2000.  Here's what I did to get Windows 2000 to recognize (this may not work for everyone, but it did for me).

  I plugged the flash drive to 16 GB on a Windows 2000-based USB port and ran:

  Norton SystemWorks-> Norton Utilities-> find and correct problems->

  Norton Disk Doctor-> diagnosis

  that gave me the message:

  Insert the diskette to diagnose in the E: drive.

  So, I ejected the flash player, it plugged into the USB port and you click on diagnose again.

  Norton Disk Doctor consulted the flash drive, diagnosed and gave the following report:

  There is no problem detected on drive E:
  Partition table... Jump
  Structures of files... Ok
  Surface test... Jump

  After this, the flash player was working fine on my Windows 2000 and Windows 7 computers.

  Thus, this procedure is awakened somehow the reader as much as to be recognizable by Windows 2000.  I hope this helps you.

• Brother printer has not detected by Windows 7 64 bit.

  Brother DCP145C has not detected by Windows 7 64 bit. What port is recommended for the local printer - LPT1? Windows 7 should detect when the USB connection, but there is no activity. Similarly, the mode to scan on the printer is not responding to "check connection". Thank you.
  Checked the port LPT1 and COM on Device Manager and seem to work correctly. No updated driver needed updated port.

  Hello Richard,.

  If several USB devices are plug-and-play, printers need a print driver to work even on a USB port. I went to the Brother website and a research on the model of printer "DCP145C" increase any responses - are you sure the model number of the printer (not the part number)?

  You have a printer disk supplied with your printer? If you do, try to use that to install the print driver. As far as LPT1 goes, is for a printer with a parallel port (printer), and the COM ports are for those who use the ports series.

  Thus starts with the right model number and look for brother.com right print driver (or use the disc that came with the printer). Try and see if that solves the problem for you.

  Let me know how you fare.

  Kind regards

  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 system manufacturer
  and the manufacturer of the device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

• Blu Ray drive not detected on Windows Explorer

  I recently formatted my laptop old, unused. It had Windows Vista Enterprise Edition before formatting. I replaced this with Windows 7 Ultimate (with integrated SP1) x 64 OS. I could get all the drivers for the laptop, but to my surprise, the Blu Ray DVD rom was not detected on the Windows Explorer!

  Think that Windows may have judged as a disc 'empty', I selected the option to display these empty drives but nothing happened. All I see on my computer is my main hard drive.

  I checked the Device Manager, but I did not see a tree menu to DVD/CDROM drives. I've repeatedly scanned for hardware changes, but Device Manager still couldn't get the Blu Ray player.

  I tried searching for information and I came across a thread that instructed me to find this registry key and delete the two folders namely "Upperfilters" and "Lowerfilters" under the
  Input HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}. This did not help at all since it does not "Upperfilters" and "Lowerfilters" folder located under this key.

  Kind of weird, the DVD Rom works because the drawer opens every time I press the button open on the side of the road.

  He used to work before I formatted my laptop. Before formatting, I checked what driver was using the CDROM, I discovered that it was a virtual DTSOFT CDROM device. I tried to search for a driver, but failed to find one. I even tried resetting the BIOS by default settings, but still no luck.

  Can someone help me? Thank you very much!

  Hi Dann,

  Make sure that the Blu - ray player is correctly connected, because it is not visible in the Device Manager. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the connectors at both ends (mother card reader & Blu - ray).

  If the problem persists then I suggest you to check the status on another computer. To confirm that this isn't a problem with the hardware.

  Keep us updated on the status of the issue.

• Old hard drive PS3 by USB box not detected by Windows Vista

  Hello

  I recently updated my old HD PS3 40 GB with a 500 GB one. Since then, I bought an external HD for my old HD, in the hope that I could use it as a hard drive for some files I have. However, I encountered a big problem - Windows Vista does not detect the HD.

  So far I read a lot of posts on the internet with people having similar problems, but with no definitive answer, so I hoped to get :)

  So far, I've tested the speaker on both the different 40 GB and new 500 GB PS3 in HD, as well as 2-3 computers. Nor are detected by windows... both have the power (green light is on, and I can hear the disc rotation), but are not detected on the management of the devices or programs in 3rd (SwissKnife). As far as the computer is concerned, nothing is connected.

  Thinking that it was probably a hardware problem, I whipped my laptop HD out and connected on a separate computer and it worked without me even having to he invites. This leads me to believe that the device works perfectly and its something about the PS3 HD, who doesn't like Windows.

  The only thing I have not tried is put my old hard drive to the PS3 in the PS3 and reformatting. The only reason for this is a screw on the case of the PS3 has decided, that he's not budging despite all my efforts. Its now 12:45 and I'm too tired to fight with 1 screw more! :) I really don't know not how tabling in so well, 3 others went fine and I deliberately don't screw them in tight with the new HD after I read about the problems people have had by removing the screws.

  Someone at - it suggestions at all? How to get Windows to recognize that this has something plugged in, on how to remove that last screw embarrassing! Whatever that either would be appreciated!

  Thanks in advance
