• Tecra M4 - DVD player does not recognize discs in Vista

  Hello

  After the installation of Vista my dvd player does not recognize discs!
  No update XP! It was a clean install of Vista.

  I found several links on the upper filter and lower registry entries this entry does not exist in my registry under the CDROM class.

  I tried the XP disk it works fine and recognizes all.
  Drivers are installed correctly no problem in Device Manager is invited.

  So I have no idea how to run it, seems to be a Vista problem

  Could someone help me? I am really frustrated to this topic

  Thanks for your help

  Maybe this helps:

  -Remove the drive from Device Manager CD/DVD.
  -Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

• New computer: DVD player does not recognize discs

  I have this computer (HP Pavilion) about 3 months ago. It already came with windows 8 when I got it, is not a recent issue of download. When I put a game disc in the DVD drive for installation, it is yet to report an error, simply, it does not recognize the disc. I tried with a DVD film as well, and it's the same thing. I never used the drive before today and was super disappointed that it didn't work. New: what's more relative than all works do not, is that the system does not recognize the potential error.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your request here in the Microsoft Community.

  This would have occurred because of hardware or software related issues. I would like to know some information about this problem so that we can help you further.

  1 have you checked the device status in Device Manager?

  2 did you changes to computer settings prior to this problem?

  I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it works for you.

  Method 1:

  Run the hardware and devices Troubleshooter and check if that helps. It is an automatic convenience store to help you solve common problems with equipment and other devices.

  Follow the steps to run the Troubleshooter:

  1. Press Windows + Q on your keyboard to display the bar of charms.
  2. Troubleshooting type, and then click Troubleshooting under settings.
  3. Now, type Hardware Troubleshooter in the option Search .
  4. Click on the convenience store equipment and devices and follow the instructions to run the troubleshooter.

  Method 2:

  Try installing the latest drivers, including drivers for the chipset and check if the problem persists. This is to check if the problem is caused due to any driver related issues or not.

  See the following Microsoft Help article to download and install the drivers.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/all-drivers

  Note: the steps for Windows 8.1 also applies to Windows 8.

  Please reply with the status of the issue so that we can better help you.

• Satellite L50D-B - faulty DVD drive does not recognize discs

  Bought 2 months ago. The reader agrees not the CD, DVD or anything like that.
  The name of the drive does not appear on the disc and if you double click on the DVD drive icon (even if a disc is inserted) the drawer opens and says please insert a disk. I tried several discs are not the issue.

  So far I got technical support where I bought it.
  They said to do a reinstall I did - with the full drive clean. I tried to update the drivers, but the computer insists on the fact that they are later. If I search my model number on the site of Toshiba driver support he gets rejected, and I have no access to (Toshiba) drivers.

  I checked a few other forums and tried the regedit fix, but which is also irrelevant. If no solution is found (and I've lost hours of my life on this subject) then this laptop is going back for a refund and I'll get one who will perform the simple task of playing a DVD.

  Hello

  Sorry to hear that you have such a stupid problem with your machine. On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
  In my opinion you should not waste your time checking and search for some drivers who probably will not help at all.

  Reinstall the original operating system that you have with your machine and test functionality with the factory settings. If the result is the same contact your reseller or Toshiba service provider directly and ask for help. They can check ODD and Exchange if necessary.

• Carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-820 s does not recognize blank DVDs

  My laptop recently stopped recognizing blank, or I burned when I put them in the DVD player.
  The drive is a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ-820 s and it was working fine until last week when I tried to use the ASHAMPOO Burning software.

  He does not even recognize any MOVIE DVD I put in the drive, but it doesn't seem to have a problem with a music CD, I tried.

  Someone to help they could offer cause I'm running out of space and I really want to delete my files.

  Thank you

  Hello

  It looks a bit like a malfunction of the equipment. Maybe the lens of the drive can not calibrate correctly.

  Another clue;
  Have you tried to delete the upper and lower filter registry entries?
  Try it. Sometimes such procedure can simply bring the reader to life.

  The detailed procedure and description has been published here in the article Microsoft Knowledge base:

• Laptop does not recognize blank CD/DVDs

  Hello

  I just bought a Dell Precision M2800 (early 2014).

  I can read DVDs and CDs normally but I when I put a CD or blank DVD to burn it, it does not recognize it and says 'Please insert a disc into the DVD drive. I tried many solutions of this forum, but none of them worked for me. I tried burning CDs and DVDs even in other laptops and they have worked perfectly.

  Please tell me what I can do.

  As you have already understood, you have a CD-ROM drive (read-only) and is unable to burn discs. You do not have the option to replace this drive with a DVD - RW drive that will burn the discs.

• The Explorer does not recognize my DVD drive

  My system suddenly stopped recognizing my DVD drive. Windows Explorer does not recognize. Device Manager says there are and that the driver is up-to-date. I tried to uninstall and reboot, but that did not help. I use Win 7 Home premium, 64-bit with a terabyte HD and 6 GB of RAM. I also tried to go to a previous restoration and cured the problem for a short time. Any ideas?

  Hello

  Since the system restore worked, for a while, it seems that you have a program that can

  pieces themselves at startup, can cause this problem, that compete for resources. If you
  can use the system to restore the drive working again, or if using other methods
  below, then EXPORT the registry keys, so you can compare and merge those back
  If necessary.
