• HP Pavilion p7-1234: functional CD/DVD drive will not boot Clonezilla disk recognize

  Have three HP p7 in small desktop running Win 7 64 bit. (Avast free version)

  None of them will recognize a bootable Clonezilla ISO or Zip, whether on CD/DVD or USB.

  Measures already taken:

  BIOS set to boot from CD/DVD

  In turn the BIOS configured to boot from USB

  Have used any compatible version of Clonezilla downloads based on my operating system and the processor, including the generic i686 ISO and Zip. (and makes bootable USB drive)

  CD/DVD and USB function perfectly well otherwise. Able to access the other disks and USB media with no problems.

  Also able to see the Clonezilla ISO when I look at the CD/DVD drive.

  It starts simply what whether Clonezilla.

  If someone has encountered this, I would like to share your experience.

  2. place the disc in the CD/DVD drive
  3. "right click" on the Clonezilla ISO on your desktop.
  4 Select "Burn Image" and follow the default values.

  Now you have a proper boot Clonezilla disk.

  Next:

  1. make sure the BIOS is set to CD/DVD is bootable.
  2. place Clonezilla disc in open the tray of the CD/DVD drive.
  3. restart the computer and close the CD/DVD tray
  4 put your finger on "F9" key and now wherever the blue HP screen appears, press "F9".
  5. boot Menu loads.
  6. move arrows down to the first line indented under "ATAPI CD/DVD DRIVE...
  SATA2 or SATA3 will be according to your system.
  7 hit ENTER.

  Clonezilla immediately, boots and loads.

  I hope it works for you.

  Hello

  to me, this looks like a hardware problem. It must be checked by the service, and perhaps that the drive must be replaced.

• CD / dvd drives will not read / write to any disk

  Hi, can someone help (first timer) I have two cd/dvd drives will read / write to disk get them all is a window pops up asking me to insert the disc. all my drivers are up to date, my Device Manager shows two active drives and works correctly, I use service pack 2 and I have installed a new software/hardware. my computer is a dell XPS 420 that is now three years old and this is the first time that I had any problem that I have not been able to solve. Help!

  Hello

  Its not unusual for the same problem have an impact on both drives, in fact its very common.

  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
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

• My DVDRW DRIVE will not write to disk

  My DVD - RW drive will not write to disk, it is only recognized on my computer as a DVD ROM and CD - ROM only. I looked in Device Manager and there is no question mark by it and he says it's working properly, I had it works normally about 2 weeks ago, can you help me? L.M.Baggley

  If it worked about two weeks ago, you could try a restore point to return the parameters of your system they had previously, by using the system restore. It is in the startmenu, all programs, system, SYSTEM RESTORE tools. Choose a point of older and not the most recent. Alternatively, right - click the icon for your drive and make sure that the recording tab is there, and that registration is enabled on the computer. You will also find it better if you record at a slower speed and not the faster if you want to avoid reading errors. "THE BEST THING TO DO IN THIS WORLD IS A WRONG ANSWER! "I"DON'T"WINDOWS...". »

• Optiarc cd - rw crx880a ata device will not recognize any cd

  My operating system is windows vista.

  Then you know that the drive is bad. You will need to buy a compatible optical drive, Acer or an after-market reputable dealer. Since it is a laptop, you can buy the disc just for her. Yes, it's probably easy to replace. Refer to the manual of your computer or search for a manual on the Acer tech support site. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• My CD/DVD drive will not appear in the Device Manager, but present in the BIOS.

  DevCon didn't find it. It will not open even if I don't get to Device Manager and check for changes to the system. I deleted the registry entries upper and lower limit. Any other suggestions? For additional emphasis, he does not show even in the Manager of devices so I cannot restore or reinstall the drivers from there. It might also help that I use Vista Home Premium on a Compaq Presario F755us.

  Hello

  (1) does the BIOS see the main hard disk drive or a secondary hard drive?

  (2) remember to make changes to the computer before the show?

  You know may not be not that most systems are set to show only the splash screen. If you go into the BIOS Setup, it should show the disks that have been detected on two primary and secondary IDE channels.

  Note: the basic procedure to change the setting of the disk controller is to restart your computer and enter the system BIOS. The most common method is to press F2 to enter Setup, (another PC may use a different key). On the BIOS screen, find the setting that offers the AHCI, ATA or IDE and RAID. If the parameter is set to AHCI, change the setting to ATA. Restart the PC on the Windows installation disc

  Warning: Incorrect settings in the system BIOS can cause your PC function incorrectly. If you are not familiar with the configuration of the BIOS of the system, you must contact the PC manufacturer for assistance.

  Try the steps in the following article and check if it helps.

  Hello

  I'm not an expert so take what I say with a large pinch of salt and check again! I have a similar problem with my A100 except the works of CD tray very well but the machine will not play some DVD and won't play any CD several people have suggested that download ITunes affects your registry files and shortly after that the machine does not recognize the CD/DVD driver.

  The error message that said something like: "i/o device error".

  Have you tried to download a new driver? I have that have not yet done and came here to seek to verify this info myself.

  Anyone else heard about Itunes affecting your laptop in anyway?

• Hard drive will not accept any CD or DVD

  I have a MacBook Pro, OS 10.6.8 version.  The hard drive will not accept a CD or a DVD.  Thinking maybe I left a floppy disk in the drive, I tried to eject, but the eject button does not eject anything.  I have not tried to insert a disk for a long time, so do not know how long it could have been a problem without me realizing it. I tried to shut down the computer and restart, but this does not solve the problem.  I did some research using the Apple Hardware Test, but the instructions say insert the Applications install disc 2.  Unfortunately, as I can't insert a disc, I can't deal with the problem in this way?  Any suggestions?

  Have you tried:
