• DVD player does not read blu - ray

  
  

  Hello

  As far as I know, you would need diagnostic equipment to test the output of the laser.  Is your laptop still under warranty?  If this is the case, you can send it to HP for repair by contacting them here.

  If it is out of warranty, I found a replacement on HP Partsurfer drive, but it is expensive in my opinion.  Here is the link.

  HP Partsurfer

  The procedure to replace the drive is pretty easy to accomplish.

  I hope this helps.

  Best wishes

• Tecra M5: DVD player does not read these mini DVD

  I have canon handycam dvd and mini dvd works on it. A month back I recorded the movie and photos on mini dvd with handycam and ran mini dvd on my tecra M5 player, it worked very well.

  Now after 1 month, I have 5 mini DVD with movies and photos that I took for 1 month of vacation country of diffierent, I tried my best but tecra dvd player does not read these mini dvd, label appears instead dvd player cd player when I put the mini dvd in there.

  All the other standard size DVD, CD works good about it. Its complex and as well as irritating.

  Any suggestions?
  Why his messedup?

  Seems that the lens cannot read this miniDVD s. Maybe cannot calibrate the lens of the drive and the miniDVD is so illegible.
  Try the sascha. Maybe you are a lucky man, and it works.
  If this is not the case, try to remove the drive physically from the laptop. Restart the laptop without the drive. The BIOS and Windows shouldn't t recognizes the drive.
  Then stops again, put the drive in the notebook and the startup of the device.
  The laptop should recognize the drive and must indicate the firmware again.

  I don't know if this will help but it s attemptable m

• HP DVD Writer does not read or write DVD, but only the CD

  My HP DVD 1135t burner does not read or write DVD but only the CD. What is the problem? Please help me.

  CD/DVD players use different lasers for reading/writing DVD from the CD.  All indications would point to your laser DVD as having failed.  You could try to remove your drive and install it in another computer to see if the problem follows your player or your computer, but my bet is that the drive must be replaced.

  No miracle software worked.

  Solution:

  Open the drive and clean the laser with a soft cloth. Move as gently strong laser unit and back. Put in a CD and turn manually for 30 seconds.

  I do not know which of the two actions helped... but it worked for me! Solved

• HP ENVY 17 TS j078 laptop will not play blu ray dvd

  I just got a HP ENVY 17 TS j078 Notebook PC

  They have installed VLC MEDIA PLAYER and dvd movies now work.

  I understand this particular laptop also plays blu ray dvd, I tried several but no luck.

  Any suggestions before I waste2 hours with HP support!

  Hello:

  Yes, this model confirms that it is not a blue ray player, just an optical drive DVD - RW.

  You can see a post similar to the link below where someone had a different brand with the same drive laptop and could not play Blu - Ray discs.

  If he were a blue ray player, he has been tagged BD instead of DVD xxxxx xxxxx.

  That's how my blue ray player is tagged.

• DV6 will not play blu ray

  Hello world

  I have a computer laptop Pavilion dv6, who used to play Blu ray, but now he keeps asking if I want to update. When I say yes, he tries to play but cycles then return to the same question. Any suggestions? I already tried to reinstall that software dvd HP Media smart, but no luck... still won't play. Ask again if I want to update... and I want to watch the Smurfs! I'd appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  If you use HP MediaSmart DVD to read Blu - ray disc, try the following.

  HP now provides a version of PowerDVD 10 Cyberlinks which seems to be a better solution.  Download the installer for it on the link below and save it to your desktop.

  FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp53001-53500/sp53029.exe

  When the download is complete, open windows panneau Panel configuration, open programs and features, right click the entry for HP MediaSmart DVD and select uninstall - once this process is complete, restart the laptop.

  When windows has reloaded, double-click the installer for PowerDVD 10 start the installation.  Once this done, see if your Blu - ray disc now plays OK.

  Kind regards

• SlimType DVD A DS8A5SH - could not read Blu - ray discs

  Hello community...

  My machine is ASUS A43S laptop and the drive Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH CD Rom...

  Well, I tried to play the "Blu - ray movies" and I get on the Properties tab... Unknown disc...

  NOTE: DVD movies will play fine...

  So, I tried a few things...

  (1) installed the VLC Blu - ray playback (of course) software

  NOTE: VLC player works great for DVD movies, but won't play Blu - ray...

  (2) I tried to update driver... but the driver is updated... Of course, I look on the internet and my drive is the best. Microsoft 6.1.7601.17514 release date: 21/06/2006

  And nothing I did make my CD ROM drive play Bul - ray...

  Community suggestions...?

  I am inclined to believe that the Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH just isn't a Blu - ray player...

  Thank you

  Hello Russell,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I appreciate your patience.

  It is regrettable that the CD/DVD drive cannot read Blu - ray discs.

  However, please do not hesitate to answer, if you have other problems with Windows.

  Thank you

• Card reader HP Pavilion dv6 does not detect some SDHC cards

  Hp Pavilion dv6-6104so laptop

  Windows 7-64 bit

  The laptop card reader does not detect some of our SDHC cards. We have updated the driver to the latest version, Realtek PCIE 6.1.7601.90 and BIOS, but it does not yet recognize some of our cards.

  We have six three SanDisk SDHC cards (4, 32 and 32 GB), two Kingston (8 and 8 GB) and an integral (4 GB). The card reader recognizes four of them (4 to 32 GB SanDisk cards and one of the two cards Kingston). What is strange and you may have already noticed is that the card reader recognizes only one of two cards with the same brand and quality!

  On the two cards that don't recognize in our specifications, they work properly in their corresponding cameras and are detected without problem by another reader of cards to laptop of HP Pavilion dv6-3138so, as well as by two netbooks from our two different brands.

  When we connect the camera (a Canon and Sony, both point) to the computer via a cable USB 2.0, the laptop detects the cameras and through them, we can access the cards.

  We bought the laptop less than two weeks in Helsinki, Finland.

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Hey everybody,

  Use of a high capacity card in a standard card reader location causes this problem. Im going to guess that the cards you ar having problems with are not standard SD cards and SDHC cards. As Naoto said, using a camera as a card reader you workaround this. You can also look in the adapters of SDHC card reader. Here is a good article on SDHC cards: http://goo.gl/lj5Fq

  I hope this helps!

• HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: Wireless Device on HP Pavilion Dv6 does not!

  Hello! I'll start with my mobile information system (and please excuse my spelling and language because I am very frustrated at the moment and typing this on a cell phone)
  
  It's a HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC with product number - B3K21PA #ABG. Serial number is 2CE2201C96. I have a Broadcom 4313GN 1 x 1 adapter Wi - Fi 802.11b/g/n according to my device manager. I recently chanhed my ISP and the wireless router, they provided is the Linksys E1200 model.
  
  Now, on the problem - after the use of an extended internet (Skype call or internet games) my laptop just stops giving me access to the internet. And I say it like that because the internet connection icon shows that I have access to the network and internet connection, but none of my software or browsers are able to connect to the internet. This is the first time, she does. I tried updating the driver (both by checking the driver updates and downloading the drivers manually). I also tried system restore and everything I could think off trying to do a factory reset on the whole thing. And I should mention also - although this problem has happened several times now since I changed ISP (and Yes, I called them on this subject too), this currently seems to be permanent, because it has been hours and it still does not.
  
  Any advice on what may be the problem or that the methods to try to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. I agree to be only moderately enough when it comes to operating a computer that I am not tech savvy kind, but have been using computers for a while now. For now, my current solution is a fall from my window on the 16th floor and see if that fixes anything. I'm not in my own country and the laptop is old a few years for technical support is hard to find.
  
  I might be sounding a little passive aggressuve and I apologize for that (I have, however, do not deny these circumstances).
  
  Thank you for reading through my wall of text of nonsense and condescend to help a poor fellow in his time of need.
  
  Yours sincerely.
