SOLVED problem with my DVD/CD _

Hello

I have a problem with my DVD/CD. Although Device Manager says, "this device works properly.". It does not at all.

I'm very suspicious of the cable connections. The cable has been severely pinched by my grandson. It did not close, and instead to find the cause, he forced its closure.

So what I want to know is if I can buy the cable online and install it myself.  I have searched but cannot find a place to buy one, and although I searched on the Dell site, I couldn't find anything there either.

Thanks for reading...

Inspiron 5721

Op - MS Windows 10 Home system

Intel Core i7-3517U

BIOS - Legacy mode

RAM - 8 GB

Name TSSTcorp CDDVDW SE-208DB USB Device

I appreciate the responses and suggestions.

I finally got my problem solved by replacing the CD-ROM unit.  I was lucky enough to get an opportunity from a computer at a price store very low. If all goes well.

Thanks again to all.

  • Having a problem with my DVD player with regard to media playback

    Hello

    I have recently had problems with my DVD ROM read drive media correctly, when I put in a computer game (lets say Star Craft 2 as an example at random) Autorun makes me up some options and says it's an image and request either 1.) Open the files and view them, or 2.) See all photos in Windows and some other similar options.
    It will not recognize the game as a game and will not bring up the menu to install the game or whatever it is, sorta solve this problem I put the automatic run settings so that it opens files in the photo (since it is the software game image processing) and once he opens the folder I click on the installation program manually.
    I checked my driver to ensure that it is up-to-date.
    For any help or suggestion will be welcome.

    SOLVED!

    I found out with a little research it was Vista blocks the autorun.inf files in games and keep them to read and run the .exe files automatically and so he held a photo, thank you for the help and suggestions.
  • Problems with the DVD on Pavilion dv6-2010sa

    HP Pavilion dv6-2010sa laptop computer (under Windows 7 x 64), I bought less than a week ago.

    I started the disk recovery software to back up my OS in the event of future disasters.

    I used a DVD + disc, so it would take 3 discs to do the recovery disks.

    First DVD completed successfully. Software asked me to enter the disk 2.

    This is where I started to have problems.

    Drive recovery software couldn't recognize my blank dvd +.

    The drive makes a lot of noise, but then stopped making noise.

    I tried a few other DVDs +, but to no avail.

    I rebooted the computer laptop and tried but same problem.

    So I tried to play a dvd movie to see if it was the disk recovery software or the dvd player.

    He would not play a dvd movie.

    I also tried to play an audio CD but the same problem.

    The drive icon appears in Windows Explorer, but does not display any info (or open the CD / DVD) when I have a CD or a DVD in there.

    So it seems to be a problem with the DVD-> grateful not any CD / DVD

    If someone can advise?

    PS. I searched the driver DVD (so I could Reinstall driver) but the HP Web site does not contain the driver for 2010sa (DVD software only)

    Thanks in advance

  • Satellite P30 turn off - also problems with burning DVDs

    Hi Please help me.
    I had a row with my brother and it won't help.

    My Pc is only a year old and it turns off. I would say it was because of overheating, but he just did and it isn't really that hot.
    I put on the books, not on my knees, keep him away heat, crash back to the desktop.
    It makes me crazy, please, any help or advice or anything like that would be a great help.

    I also have problems with my dvd burner, always, he gets to about 17% and said that there is a mistake, thought it was the discs but surely it can be all 100 of them, I tried turning on and off but no use.
    Also the advice would be great!

    Please help a girl in need of a working Pc! Who does not know a lot of technical stuff!

    Hello

    Overheating problems usually occur because the cooling module cannot work properly.
    Fans are unable to work because of the dirt and dust inside the laptop.
    The best way to clear the fans is to use the vacuum cleaner.

    On the problems of DVD writer: well, it's not easy to say why it happens. Have you checked media dvd from different manufacturers? Many CD/DVD media works differently, and you should check it out.
    In addition, there is a problem with the burning software. I put t know what application you're using, but you should try to use Nero. It's very nice software and I m very happy. Check it out

  • Problem with still DVD CS6. Cancellation writing disc

    Hello. I need help - I have a problem with Encore DVD CS6. When the DVD disc is written the end of the process program cancel displays this text: "Still could not complete the operation due to an error in hardwar (detection code 40902)" it is in mac os. In windows, the problem is the same but the detection code is 300200. What is it?   Disk space is sufficient.

    As a test, generate an image rather than burn them to a disc.

    Sense errors are usually, but not always material.

    You use the same drive (external?)? Are you using the same disks? (Sense code errors can be disks.)

    Many of us don't burn ever with still, using ImgBurn for PC or for Mac toast.

    How to burn DVDs with Windows DVD Maker
    http://www.7tutorials.com/how-burn-DVDs-Windows-DVD-Maker

    I'm guessing that you are under Vista Movie Maker 6?
    The only new version would be Windows Live
    Movie Maker and I think most users would
    not to call it an 'Upgrade '.

    Personally, I suggest making small
    projects, or even a first part and a second part on
    two DVD.

    If you save your Movie Maker projects to DV - AVI
    format and when you import within the limit of the DVD Maker
    the total duration of about 1 hour for DVD
    You can have the best video quality.

  • Failures/intermittent problems with Optiarc DVD +-RW AD - 5560 has

    I have an Inspiron 1720 laptop running Windows Vista. June 1 the DVD drive was declared missing. The Device Manager said "this device cannot start. Code 10. " Looking for solutions? "Could not load driver software. A chat with technical support solves the problem by taking control of my computer and do something in the system registry.

    Two weeks later I couldn't eject the CD that had just been snatched. Restart solved that problem.

    Today, the original problem described above reappeared.

    Technical support advised that, so that they can keep fixing these problems Dell will not replace the disc if the warranty does not expire until October.

    Everyone knows the same problem with this drive and what do I do to fix this?


  • Satellite P200-1EE - problem with writing DVD

    Had a problem with a disc that would not eject from the drive. The drive light flashes and a rattling noise coming from the command.
    Windows then did not recognize the drive at all!

    After leaving from one day to the next, the disc came out at the start.
    Everything seemed normal, DVD plays no problem.
    However, I can't burn a DVD using Nero 6.

    I get an error message "Abandoned SCSI command". It never imagined before.
    Is that what I can do to fix this?

    There may be dust on the lens? Try to clean with a Microfiber cloth.

    You can also try to remove the CD/DVD filters in the registry.
    When the associated CD/DVD (such as iTunes, Nero, virtual CD software), the software is installed, they install filters in the registry, which can cause compatibility problems.

    (1) run Regedit (start-> Run-> Regedit)
    2) navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    (3) in the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key and delete the key "LowerFilters".
    (4) restart.

    If your CD/DVD programs stop working, you will need to reinstall them (preferably with an updated version).

    This utility can remove the filters for you:

    can someone tell me what is happening.
    Thank you

    On this path, it is not easy to say anything. Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then restart the device. The unit should be recognized and installed correctly.

    If you want to create data CDs using windows options please check disc recording option. Check the properties of the drive and check option under the recording tab.

  • Problem with recovery dvd - Win 7

    After you perform a clean installation of Windows 10 I had problem with closing down my pc, it's a bug to win 10. So I decided to reinstall Windows 7 on my Acer Aspire M3920 of my recovery DVD made by Acer eRecovery management.
