  The problem is that none of us are 100% positive, the drive is bad.

  I could take a look at the front of the car and see if there is no generic who would take too long the buttons to open to try it are similar in size and location, this should work.

• Laptop Inspiron E1405 media Cntr, CD/DVD-ROM does not recognize DVD

  My CD/DVD-ROM does not recognize when there is a DVD in the drive. I had this problem before, but persistence always overcame the problem, that is, I still put the DVD in over and over again, and then it worked. A week ago, I was able to watch all of a DVD movie, reinserting after about 10 times. But now, it does not recognize a DVD. I tried to roll back the Media Player from v.11 to v.9, but it made no difference. I would appreciate help, like Dell and the India seems unable to help.

  Hello

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
  Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
  RESTART 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 coward
  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.

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

  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

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and

• S5-1060 casing dvd player does not recognize the Bluray disks after you restore windows 7

  I have a s5-1060 casing with a HP DH12E3LH bluray player, recently the computer was so I took out the restore disks and just do a fresh install of windows 7, it works fine now, BUT the only thing I can't understand is why my bluray in unity player not to see, recognize or play blurays now.

  The Device Manager shows the best drivers are already installed (21/06/2006 microsoft 6.1.7601.17514 driver), and he will play CD, DVD, just does not recognize a bluray disc.  I might say, we watched top of 25-30 movies on it so I 'hope' is not burned or something altogether.

  It indicates that the device is working properly in Device Manager he calls it a cdrom drive (not sure if it matters), but with a bluray in the drive, it shows under properties / status / no media in the drive.

  I'm not really sure where to start on this, drivers seem strange to be so old, is it a firmware I can update if so where can I get that info, I went to the hp site let it detect the computer saw the driver updated but nothing which was directly related to the cdrom drive.

  Thanks for any help on this just stumped at this point, as it was working before the full restoration to the computer using the recovery disks, then there must be something simple.

  Hello FTLOSM,.

  I understand that after making your computer your Blu - ray discs won't play in Windows 7. I'm you provide a document from HP support: solve the DVD and Blu-ray movie problems (Windows 7) that will guide you through the troubleshooting steps to resolve this problem. I would focus on the topic impossible to watch movies in Blu-ray 3D. I am also you provide the link to the Drivers of HP Pavilion Slimline s5-1060 desktop PC page.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• My DVD ROM does not recognize DVD discs after upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7.

  A few days ago, I updated my laptop to Windows XP to Windows 7. Everything seemed to go well until I tried to burn a DVD disc. The program I use for this purpose is Nero 9.4.26.0. So, I've discovered I don't have problems with writing and playing the usual CD but my laptop does not recognize and does not read or write DVD. Laptop HP Compaq 6510 b and the DVD ROM is MATSHITA DVD - RAM UJ - 860H ATA DEVICE. Please share your ideas about the problem. I really enjoyed this :)

  Some CD / DVD readers may require an update to function well in Windows 7.

• Satellite A100-773: CD/DVD player does not recognize the CD

  Hello friends,

  I have satellite A100-773.
  When I turned on it today it does not recognize any CD. He acknowledges, however, DVD and can also burn CDs with Nero.

  As soon as I put in a CD it says (in German) something like "access denied, unauthorized function.
  It's a mystery to me what happened. Until yesterday, it was perfect. Now the same CD (and I tried 20) wouldn' work anymore.

  I tried the recovery system to an earlier point in time, but it does not help. In the hardware Manager tells me that everything is going well.

  Do you have any idea what it can be?

  Thank you very much

  Ognian

  Hello

  In such cases, it s is not easy to say why it happens.
  Usually if the drive cannot read media either material works badly or the CD / DVD is not compatible and taken in charge.

  But we hope that the equipment is not damaged.
  Try to remove the drive from Device Manager and restart the laptop.
  After that restart of the operating system should recognize the drive again and load the driver. Then you could try to test the drive again.

  I also found a very large Microsoft document on:
  How to troubleshoot problems that occur when you copy data on a CD - R or CD - RW optical disc in Windows XP
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/324129

  and this:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315350/

  The other possibility is to use the recovery CD to reinstall the OS.

• CD/DVD drive does not recognize the DVD media disc.

  Greetings,

  Had problems with my CD/DVD drive not being able to recognize that a DVDmovie disc is in the drive.

  I tried to turn on/off, reinstalled the driver, update the driver, check if AutoPlay is enabled (currently set to invite me) and have used the Microsoft Automated Troubleshooting system which could not solve the problem.

  I am able to burn data and audio files on CD/DVD very well, it will read the same types without problems.  But whenever a DVDmovie disc is, it does not recognize, there is a disc in the drive, or Autoplay hit.

  Also clean the laser lens with isopropyl alcohol.

  Thoughts?

  Honestly, I had not checked immediately after I cleaned the lens, but it works now.  I am convinced that cleaning the lens resolved.

  I had posted this, and then read somewhere else to clean the lens, has made, edited my post saying I had it done and then tried a DVD and it worked.

• P-15 CD/DVD player, does not recognize the CD

  The CD player will start to read the CD, but then it will make a clicking sound and to stop, then repeat this again and again. I tried to disable digital playback of CD, but no use.
  Someone at - there have any idea what the problem is? These CD play in stereos and CD player. What is the goal or the CD? Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you!
  Taichi Nakatani

  Hi Taichi,

  is there a copy on these audio CD protection? This could be the problem!

  Another suggestion is to make an update of the Firmware on your drive!

  Going to the MAT * A directly or Panasonic (holding company).
  When google you around you'll find!

  Also, you can test if these problems occure with burned discs or an Audio DVD!

• Satellite A200 - 23P - mechanic of DVD - rom does not

  I'm sorry for my English in advance this topic! -Thank you

  I have a very big problem with my engraver of DVD (RM).
  I bought SAT A200 - 23P three weeks ago.
  The Win VISTA operating system has been installed. DVD - rom worked well.

  If I have installed Win XP to the second partition on my HARD drive (to install the disk with driver for sata drive in nlite) and installed all the drivers and utilities for Toshiba laptop, I found that my DVD-rom is not working while I press eject button.

  Mechanic of DVD is not responding to eject in XP and not even in the BIOS!
  It is interesting, mechanic DVD is the detection in BIOS, detects in XP, XP operating system votes - mechanic to the DVD works properly - its fable.

  However, if I have installed XP on the second partition, Win Vista does not load :(
  I don't have a second chance for second selection (Vista and XP).
  I now have XP only, even if Vista is on the first partition - I didn't delete it.

  Do you think that the DVD-rom is HW or SW problem?
  I think that, given that the DVD-rom does not in the BIOS - HW error.

  But is very strange, if I install XP from mechanic to the DVD and then close is, DVD - rom does not...:)

  If I manually open and insert the CD, the DVD does not (diode led no blink, just if I turn off the computer, led blinked once).

  PLS help me someone-

  Thank you!

  Hi Michal

  Your question is very strange, I mean the number of CD/DVD drive

  The fact is that the readers of CD/DVD eject function functions should any operating system has been installed on your laptop. It has nothing to do with your software on the HARD drive.

  So I wonder why the eject button works with Vista and not XP preinstalled OS?  :|

  My only plausible explanation is that sometimes there is a bad connection between the laptop and the drive. However the problem could be related to the hardware problem too

  As you see it s not easy to say what's wrong exactly, we can only speculate.

  Now some details about your installation of OS double.

  You cannot choose between Windows XP and Vista because Vista boot manager was obliterated during the installation of Win XP.
  This happened to me also. I installed Win XP on my Satellite and could not start Vista.

  The solution was simple; I used another original DVD of Vista (from my friend) and booted from this DVD. Vista has renewed the Boot Manager, and then I was able to boot Vista.

  Then I downloaded the tool called Easy BCD.
  This tool can change the Vista Boot Manager settings. I've edited and inserted a new Windwos XP OS entry.

  That s it!

• filmmaker does not recognize the MTS files

  I use Widows VIsta.
  I used the windows Director to edit MTS files and was very satisfied of this. Then it stopped working, it does not recognize the files more.

Still not recognize the MTS file.  Can someone help me? Thank you.

• Portege Z930-118 does not recognize the external USB CD/DVD drive

  My new Z930-118, with windows 7 64 bit home, does not recognize the external CD/DVD drive when I plug it into the USB port.

  The CD/DVD device does not even appear at all in Device Manager.

  The reader is a SE-S084 Samsun and works well on another laptop.

  I already checked for the "upper_filter", "lower_filter" with the regedit, but entries are not there, so no help.

  Hello
  I m not very well how to help you.

  I found some information about this WEIRD disc and it seems that he didn't need an external power supply. Its USB bus powered so I guess around 500mA power since it is the default value provided by a USB 2.0 port.

  I don t think that there is a problem of missing software. It is a plug n play device so you need to connect it to the USB port and the system should automatically recognise.

  From my point of view of the few you try to connect the external USB ODD two ports to aid a * Y * Cableusb.
  I think the reader needs more power provided by a single USB port.

• Satellite A100 does not recognize the new CD/DVD drive

  Unfortunately, I bought a DVD of Toshiba Portege A100 / reader Combo CD - RW that is not exactly what I had before the jump that it will still work.

  Unfortunately, I'm surprised because it does not recognize the CD/DVD drive at all: /...
  It seems to work, and the light blinks I think that it is not broken.

  I just plugged it because that's the way I was told to do.
  I need to download the drivers to operate?
  It will work on my laptop, or is it a "most recent" CD player that will not work with my laptop?

  I'd appreciate any help. THX
