• Windows Media Center cannot detect the error DVD Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD into the drive

  Original title: why Windows Media Center does not detect my DVD?

  I built my computer motherboard ASUS P658D, Intel i7 processor clocked at 2.6 gHz, 12 GB RAM, 750W Corsair PWR. power, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit & ie9. When I put or the other two DVDs in one of two DVD players, Windows Media Center appears and when I click on "Play DVD" Media Center give me a window that says:

  "Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD in the drive." Two DVDs, I've tried are educational for DVD

  my Nikon D300 Digital camera and a family video DVD or both these very well play in a bed of same computer running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, & ie8.

  I tried Microsoft Fixit, no help. I tried to send Microsoft Support, and I got NO HELP. I did not bring any changes, and installed any program, just

  scoured the internet. A DVD player is a Sony Optarc with Microsoft Driver, the other is ASUS. I also tried to use Windows Media Player but nothing

  rises or it returns me to Windows Media Center and it does not detect to play either of my DVD. How can I get help here, or from Microsoft? Thank you.

  No, there is no yellow warning in Device Manager and the device manager says that two DVD players work properly. Mr. Fix it's

  automated download from microsoft that is supposed to automatically fix some problems, but he provided no help here. I think it is more likely

  that there is a problem with Windows Media Center or Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and either of my two new Sony DVD drives

  and ASUS.

  I thought my way in a solution. My thought was: Device Manager indicates DVD players work properly and both are new and we're Sony, and the other ASUS so I think only an unlikely problem with readers. The problem is with Windows Media Center "do DETECTED is not the DVD. So there must be a problem with Windows Media Center. I thought that I might need to reinstall Windows 7... then I thought that maybe if I just reinstall Windows Media that will work. He did. My problem was:

  Start > Panel > programs and features > features on or off Windows activate > then uncheck the box for multimedia functions > restart the computer > and then re-check the box to restore the multimedia features > now both discs play both DVDs, I tried. Both disks are operating normally. Reinstall the characteristics of media Windows 7 resolved the problem. Thanks to all who offered solutions.

• Problem with installing Windows on a hard drive, HARD drive does not get detected after installation

  Original title: help with hard drive of the computer.

  Flow of the problem:

  My aunt tried to install windows 7 on the previous copy of windows 8. Needless to say that it doesn't work and it has messed up the hard drive. So, I bought a vacuum. I formatted the hard drive using my other windows computer to have 2 partitions: a boot partition and system partition, and then used the program WinToUSB to install windows on the hard disk. The reason I did it is, because no matter how many times I changed the BIOS in my laptop of aunts, it wouldn't boot from the DVD player to load the windows software. After a few hours, I found WinToUSB. Once windows has been installed, I plugged it into the laptop. For a few hours, I didn't know what to do, because the computer does not recognize the hard drive (he said: "Not detected"). I decided to start from legacy, and then the screen deals

  «intell...» »

  and a bunch of dates, etc all the stuff on the screen to load legacy if you know what I mean.

  He said "not plugged in the media. Check the power cord.

  Then quickly changed screen before I can read almost anything and it goes to the normal windows screen black (with 4 colors). I said to myself, how can he be loading if the hard drive is not detected... Once it is loaded, he brought me to the blue screen (blue screen of death, if you want) I turned the computer on again, always noticing the hard drive was not detected. I ran all the recovery/repair options I could and turned off the laptop. I came back a few hours ago and I loaded the computer again and went into the BIOS.  He said that the hard drive has been detected and said the news about this, as usual. However, at the start of the legacy of windows loading screen, it said still not detected.  I then started to windows to see since it is now detected if that fixes the blue screen. Yet, there is no. I tried to go to the normal windows and screen remains blue. any ideas?

  Hello Chris,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  According to the description, it seems that Windows was not properly installed on the hard drive. I'm not sure how to work the software from third-party manufacturers WinToUSB and reliable installation process is. Microsoft does not recommend using any third party tool to install Windows on your computer, the use of these third-party tools can cause serious damage to your computer.

  I would say to format the hard drive once more and try to install Windows through normal Windows installation process.

  Refer to the section "using the installation option custom if no operating system is installed" in the thread below.

  Installing and reinstalling Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/installing-reinstalling-Windows#1TC=Windows-7

  If you are not able to install Windows on the hard drive at all, I suggest you to contact the hard drive manufacturer to obtain a diagnosis of material performed on the hard drive.

  Do not hesitate to write back for any further assistance with Windows, we will be happy to help you.

• My CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.

  My readers Optiarc DVD - RW AD-7530 ATA Device DVD/CD-ROM & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.
  Although of course, the CD-ROM drive worked during the upgrade.
  I noticed that when I turn firstly on the laptop, the last two lines of the front entry from Windows 7 are the following.
  PXE - E6i:Media Test Failure, Check Cable
  PXE - MOF: Exit PXE Rom
  During the audit of each Properties in Device Manager devices", I learned that they both work correctly.  In the list in the printers and the @Devices the only Webcam shown is also a "USB 2.0 Camera"
  Can someone help me please?
  Best regards
  John

  Besides what abdelhak says:

  The message of PXE boot that you receive when you start your computer has nothing to do with your CD/DVD-Rom drive. Your computer uses a PXE boot method to attempt to load Windows from a location on your network. Since you do not have this configuration, it is safe to ignore it. If it slows down the startup time of your system, contact your manufacturer and ask them for instructions on how to "disable PXE Network Boot of the BIOS.

  Hope this helps,

• Satellite P20 DVD ROM drive may not be recognized

  Hello

  I just replaced my DVD ROM drive, but I had a problem.
  It is a new DVD rom drive I ordered at TOSHIBA also.
  It could not be detected by Windows:
  -Tried to check on Device Manager, not detected
  -Tried to reload the driver, the same problem
  Note:
  Whenever I tried to re - insert the disc, the blue light in the control panel of my P20 beds (I understand, which means that the P20 detects the drive) but I don't understand, is that why Windows XP does not detect it or it does not alarm or error messages.

  Any help?

  Thank you

• CD/DVD Rom drive reads the DVD as blank disc?

  Looked for information on the subject the whole place and it feels like I'm the only one who has this problem.

  The CD/DVD-Rom drive in my HP laptop is not reading the data on my DVD or CD I DVD that have been burned on a computer and some other that I burned on this drive. Data on them that I've used them in the past and without any problem. I changed nothing on my computer since the last time I used them I can think of and I have all the latest software updates for Vista and HP.

  Now when I put in drive it takes about a minute and then gets up and tells me that the disc is empty, but I know it's NOT like I've used it before and I see on the underside of the drive it was burned.

  Is this a problem of software or a hardware problem or disk I have not tried a lot of things that just the standard checks to try to get the drive to run but without success. For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks Phil.

  Hello PhilStokes,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

  Sorry, you have a problem with this issue.  I would first go to Device Manager to verify that all drivers are up-to-date.

  Go to start-> Type ' Device Manager "" in the search field-> select Device Manager '->, select here (+) for the CD/DVD - rom-> This will fall to the bottom of your device-> next right-click on the device and select update. "

  If not chance or driver is already updated, return to Device Manager and right click on your device and select uninstall.  You may be prompted to restart, anyway go back to Device Manager and right click again and select install or update.

  Please let us know status.  Thank you! Engineer James Microsoft Support answers visit our Microsoft answers feedback Forum and let us know what you think.

• CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive: status of the device - this device cannot start. (Code 10)

  In Device Manager, my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive has a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside. I tried to use the online solution to correct, but it does not find a solution. I also tried to update the software, but no luck there. Help, please.
  Thank you
  iSavage

  First thought: try reading the Windows Installation DVD.  If it works, then your player works properly, at least a little.

  Next: You tried to update the drivers for the CD/DVD in Device Manager?  Generally, Windows is plug and play for this type of devices.  This means that if you install, Windows will load the proper drivers and they will work.

  So-
  If you have restarted?
  Did you test the drive?
  Try to uninstall the driver in the device and restart Manager.
  Have you looked in the BIOS to see if the CD-ROM drive is activated?

  It is generally true that a yellow triangle mean a driver problem.
  That it should be fixed by uninstalling the driver and restarting.

  If you still have problems, post ack with more details and we'll see what we can do for you.

  See you soon!
