Two DVD players do not recognize

Original title: the two DVD no longer works.

Failure information are: the configuration in the registry incomplete or faulty information.

They use to work, but since a few weeks, I have a chance.
they do not appear in 'my computer', but they appear in the bios
also use the hardware Manager, MS-Fixit, or rigistry there is no way.

I can boot the PC with a recovery CD, but of course, that will clean my drive C:\

I use an Optiarc DVD (RW) AD 7260 SATA
and a Sony DVD ROM DDU1615 ATA
Ive tried everything I know, but maybe it's not enough
Also, I updated the driver for two DVDs. I get the information that two pilots have the latest version
but I still get the same problem.

I hope my English explanation is ok? If this isn't the case, I better explain in German.

Hope someone can give me a good idea what to do.

  • Tecra M4 - DVD player does not recognize discs in Vista

    Hello

    After the installation of Vista my dvd player does not recognize discs!
    No update XP! It was a clean install of Vista.

    I found several links on the upper filter and lower registry entries this entry does not exist in my registry under the CDROM class.

    I tried the XP disk it works fine and recognizes all.
    Drivers are installed correctly no problem in Device Manager is invited.

    So I have no idea how to run it, seems to be a Vista problem

    Could someone help me? I am really frustrated to this topic

    Thanks for your help

    Maybe this helps:

    -Remove the drive from Device Manager CD/DVD.
    -Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    -Reboot the laptop

  • 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 NEC ND-4550-reader DVD - RW does not recognize DVD game discs.
    He has no problem reading movie DVDs and music CDs or access data CD and DVD burnt with data on them.
    I removed and let XP Reinstall the device and high-low filters removed the registry etc nothing works.
    I made a copy of a DVD game on another PC and it is recognized and install my PC.
    All DVD discs work very well on the other PC.
    I am running Windows XP Professional with SP2.
    MS Fixit controls indicate no problems.
    This would be a matter of software protection?
    All tried game DVDs are official records and not copies.
    The NEC ND-4550 uses cdrom.sys as pilot.

    Finally, I replaced the drive for a new one (Pioneer DVR-S18L) and everything now works as it should.
    So I suspect that it's a hardware problem and not one that can be resolved by any of the Windows settings.

  • Two DVD players showing in 'My Computer' - Qosmio G20

    Hello

    I have a G20 and for some reason, Ive got two showing in my computer DVD players.

    The first is called "DVD player - RAM" and is known as the D: drive. If I put a CD or DVD in the drive, then it appears on this icon.

    But there is also a second called "DVD player" and it is known as the E: drive. It appears not all of the disks I put in the machine. If I double click on it, it gives just the usual error saying "Please insert a disk in the drive."

    Can someone explain the difference here and why I have this second drive?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    On this path, it is not easy to say what is happening here. As far as I know some applications to create virtual drives and I n know not for what applications are preinstalled on your machine.

    Otherwise, you can go by car properties (right mouse button) and click on the Hardware tab. On this site, you will be able to see the type of device.

    DVD players, both came with the PC and MSI DVD - Rom I bought through the Internet works ONLY for playback of CD - r and DVD - r, but the two do NOT write/burn brand new DVD and CD - R, popping up in the middle of the screen,... Please insert the blank in the E floppy when I actually inserted in the DVD drive.

    I have uninstall and rebooted the PC, in the hope that readers DVD works OK,... but nothing helps.

    Wonder if the registry damaged for DVD player, or what other problems causing this problem?

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Have you checked if the CD/DVD drive you purchased is a recordable disc? If this is the case, there should be an indication (e.g., CD-RW/DVD-RW). You can also check for the indication Device Manager.

    If you have confirmed that it is indeed able to write on the discs, then try to activate the IMAPI. To do this please see the instructions below.

    1. click on start

  • Windows Movie Maker, Media Center, DVD Creator, does not recognize that I have an engraver of DVD/CD operation to date.

    I have a Dell with Windows XP Media Edition desk top. I was always able to create movies using Windows Movie Maker and also by Media Edition and burn them to a DVD and a CD even. I can play any CD or DVD in the readers, however, I can't save or burn more. I get error 19 asking me to make sure I have a recorder. Whatever program I am in does not recognize that I have a DVD/CD burner. I have uninstalled and reinstalled software, scanned the players only to discover that they are up-to-date and are working properly. Except that they are not work properly. I have a TSST corp DVD +-RW TS - H553A I do most of my record with. I have been to Fix Windows and he's always broke. Any ideas?
