Updating drivers for CD & DVD corupts

After today's windows XP update of my CD - RW and DVD disappeared from the 'My Computer' list.  When I go into the device manager that I have failed to load the corrupted or missing device drivers.  I get an error code 39?  Looking for a resolution, thanks JB

Hello

Code 39 means that the driver is corrupted or missing.

Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
the question.

Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
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 loose 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.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Also check with your system manufacturer to see if there are any updated drivers for your DVD. Or even if it
are you can reinstall the 'old'. Many use Windows default drivers however some special aura
ones. Also check the website of the manufacturer of the car.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • Question about updating drivers for Tecra A9

    Hello

    I noticed that support Toshiba updates drivers for Tecra A9 very slowly even if they introduce important features. For example, the display driver for 965 graphics worm 15 is much better than 14 worm distributed by Toshiba. I know that pilots are tuned and Toshiba has many models to take care, but several months of waiting seems to be too long. I do not expect that all minor versions are updated, but the most important should be!

    Kind regards
    Marek

    Having the latest drivers would be nice, but its different for laptops. Motorists need to be customized for the features of the laptop, and they probably need to go through quality control, testing too although I guess.

    However there may be a solution, you can try to install the drivers later on newer models such as the Tecra A10 and M10 :)

  • updated drivers for nvidia geforce gt230m for vpccw14fx

    using model vpccw14fx
    Graphics: Geforce GT230m
    driver version: 186.47
    NVIDIA have officially updated the driver version: 340.52
    on 2014.7.29

    But when I tried to automatically find drivers for my graphics card NVIDIA on their site, it show an ERROR "the manufacturer of this system requires that download you the driver for your GPU from their site of support." but to sony support site the driver is still old, new driver is not updated...

    so my request to you solve my problem

    Hi amithalingali,

    I understand that you see a newer version of the driver from the NVIDIA support site but these version of the drivers are yet to be tested and certified by Sony, this is the reason why there is no update yet from our eSupport site. You will get this version subsequently once we checked and make sure that it will work properly.

    Thank you

  • need to update drivers for Windows 8.1 for J110 series

    Worked OK a few weeks before, but after that date 8.1 it half stop ink printing. Installed new cartridge color to similar problems. Tried a new black cartridgeXL & black choise, but doesn't print anything. I have tried reloading the software CD & realized it wouldn't work on my new laptop S855 Satellite Tobshiba with Windows 8 or 8.1. Have you updated the software and drivers for the Deskjet 1000 J110 series? And where can I get them?                                                                                                                                               Thanks, Chucknon

    Hello Chucknon,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

    I understand that your Deskjet 1000 printer is no longer printing in black after a Windows 8.1 update. Yes there are drivers available, seen here drivers and software HP Deskjet full functionality.

    I would say troubleshooting this as a matter of 'Quality', as black is missing.

    Please follow this step by step guide: solving print quality problems

    If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

    It is to get the error message after downloading recommended HP driver:

    Yes,

    You should be fine to delete the driver of 5600 then. At the worse if it stops printing we just reinstall the 5600.

  • updated drivers for graphics card ati x 1200

    my laptop is an acer aspire 5515 comes with Vista Home Basic. no problems with vista but the problem came when Defender got his monthly update of malware and wanted to remove some of the acers (software) programs... so I bought the full version of win 7 must update driver for the ati x 1200 graphics card. Acer will not help and wants to charge me to do it as well as a fee of $ 200. AMD won't help they just refer me back to acer.

    I have this system cleaner called advanced system of care and it came with a program called game booster. It checks for the driver who should be ranked upwards and provides the link.   I downloaded the driver from this 1st then downloaded from the acer site. most copied the files and the driver 10.1 works now.  Thanks for the link I'll save for future use.
