Pavilion dv6-6c35dx Entert. PC: I can play DVDs on my portable player, but not CD

I recently updated my Windows7 for Windows 10 laptop.  I can read my DVD without problem.   But cannot read any CD.  I don't know if this laptop can read CDs at all, or do I have to install new software?

Thank you

This problem is often due to the lack of codecs that come with the built-in MS Reader

My suggestion is that you give up the built-in player and switch to use the VideoLAN player.

It of free and has many more features than the MS player and comes with all the common codecs pre-installed: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html

Good luck

  • The upgrade of the graphics cards and processors on the Hp Pavilion dv6-6c35dx

    I was wondering if I can improve the graphics and CPU on my Hp pavilion dv6-6c35dx, or should I buy a new computer in the future?

    Hello:

    You are unable to pass the video to your laptop without having to replace the whole motherboard with one that may have better graphics that could be included in the service manual for your laptop.

    C responsible for costs making a such update is not worth. A new motherboard for your PC would cost almost as much as a new PC.

    You can also see Chapter 1 of the list of supported processors.

    I think with AMD processors, you must also replace the motherboard to upgrade the processor.

  • I burned music from my computer to a CD - RW. Now I can play the CD in my computer, but it won't play on my CD player.

    I burned music from my computer to a CD - RW.  Now I can play the CD in my computer, but it won't play on my CD player.  Any suggestions?  Is there a problem with the help of a CD - RW on a CD player?  I would like to know what format would be best universally to play in a CD player.

    Any help please!

    original title: Burning CD music computer

    Some CD players cannot read the CR - RW, especially older. Check the documentation of players for the type of files, it can read.

    What you burn as - CD music or data (mp3 files). Yet once, some players older cannot read data discs (mp3).

    The best universal format is to burn a music CD.

    CD - RW has only need to put in shape if they have already been used and have given written on them.

    Everything you do and you choose, always make sure that the disc is finalized IE. do not burn as a multisession. Once more, the older players cannot read a multisession disc.

    BTW, here is a better alternative to WMP:

  • Error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file' when try to play wav or midi files.

    Original title: WMP "can't play wav or midi.

    Using WMP 11 on Windows XP SP3.

    Windows Media Player has somehow forgotten how to play wav or midi files. Doubleclicking either of these file types give an error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. " There is a button 'Close' and 'Web Help' which still informs me, "you met the C00D1199 error message... ". ». Following the advice given nothing less than useful.

    I can easily play these files with RealPlayer or VLC so I don't think it's a driver problem, and it wasn't a corruption right after installing the other players. WMP seems to work OK when playing music or AVI. And there is no harm to hear a sound (wav or midi) in Windows for various system events. Have already uninstalled/reinstalled WMP without result.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have since determeined the problem comes from an updated codec package I installed a few weeks ago. These codecs were from Shark007 which I believe is a Microsoft MVP. Use the codecs from this site for a number of years without any problems so I did not initially suspect it was the source of the problem. I uninstalled the codec pack and installed K-light package and everything seems to be Ok now. Now, I'll be in contact with the members of this forum.

    Original title: cannot get audio from video .3g2 (Windows 7)

    I have a number of videos that were recorded on a Motorola phone to format .3g2, when I played against them in windows XP Pro using what was the most recent media player, they played very well and the audio was present.

    I've since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and have found that videos will play with media player sound is not output.

    I tried different players like VLC (same result, no sound) and came across one called SUPER from erightsoft which indeed works and allows me to re - encode to .wmv BUT when I do and you try to read the .wmv I encounter an error:
