• Computer can not detect any sound cards and graphics or communication ports.

  Recently I reinstalled Windows using the CD, I had Dell, when I bought my computer. However, when I was done with the installation, I went on youtube to look at things and I realized that the sound was not working. I thought I must have forgotten to install the driver for my sound card, then when I tried to install, it says something in the sense of "error". - Impossible to find Port Com1 I looked into this a bit on google and found that it is probably disabled in my BiOS. I'm not sure what to do after that, but I hope that someone knows why my computer can not detect anything.  hate viruses

• Why my rocket can not read my 32 gb sandisk microsd?

  I bought a class 4 32 GB sandisk microsd for my v2 rocket, but it will not read it?  The card works fine on the computer, so I know that it is not a problem with the card.  Does anyone have any ideas how to get my rocket to read my sandisk microsd?  I have the latest firmware.  Thank you.

  Well, oddly enough, even if it was formatted to factory and it worked perfectly Mobile files and playing songs when connected to the PC, it re-formatting XP seems to have solved my problem.  Now the player see and play the songs I put on it.  Obviously there is something about the file system fat32 on the map at the plant did not like the player - but not the pc-.  In any case, it seems that I solved my problem.  Thank you all for your comments.

• Computer can not read my CD

  I can open and read on a computer with Windows XP CD but cannot open and read on my computer with Windows Vista Home Premium.  I ran the Microsoft Diagnostics on my computer for this problem, but it was not resolved.  The CD contains MRI and CT images.  The instructions with the CD to view the photos are at "Double Click on the CD Drive Icon: DVD - RAM Drive (D :)". ». My drive icon is different: drive DVD - RW (e :)).

  You are unable to read or open up a WHOLE CD on this computer or is - this just this a CD?  Do you get any error messages when you try?  Insert the CD and go to Windows Explorer, right click on the CD drive icon and click on Exlpore.  Can view you the contents of the CD like this?  Is there a file setup or install listed - if so, try a double click on it to see what happens.  It is another .exe file - try double-clicking that to see if it is active the program which shows the images.  If not, can you on o separate image and see if it opens (this is not possible anyway if the images are tied to the look a software on CD).  CD show upward in Windows Explorer or it indicates there is no CD inserted?  Have you tried cleaning slightly CD with a soft cloth running from the center toward the edge to remove any fingerprnts or tasks that may interfere with work properly - if not, please do so.

  I hope this helps.   If this isn't the case, please answer the questions, I asked and provide the results of the procedure I suggested in your response.

• Computer to read DVD - one message says that I can not read the DVD, except that I have installed a new driver.

  I have a new Toshiba C650 laptop, and he says that I can not read the dvd on it except that I have installed a new driver. Is this true?

  Hi Bill,

  To be honest, this sounds ridiculous but if you get a message, I suppose it could be possible even if I find it incredible.  Do you have it in a (local or online) retail store or Toshiba?  By any chance did you upgrade from the DVD player when buying (where they may have accidentally neglected to update the drivers of the drive that was originally installed)?

  As it is new, Toshiba should help you with this.  Here's the contact page: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/navShell.jsp?cf=su_contact&pf=true.  Give them everything they need to prove that buy you it and it should be under warranty and then give them the message Word for Word, that you have found.  They should be able to help you.  They can, for some reason I don't know, you don't need to help or guide you through a new driver installation.  I ask for a clear explanation of why this is necessary on a new computer and, if you are not satisfied with the response, ask them to consider that all the faulty computer and replace it.  Even if they won't, he needs the get them less motivated to solve your problem.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• I have a computer running VISTA. The CD-ROM/DVD-rom does not work and can not read the CD of the program that I placed in it.

  It won't read a DVD.  It will not read ANY CD or DVD.  I tried 12 different CD/DVD.  This isn't an upgrade to Vista; the computer came "made for Vista" with Vista installed on it.  I had added Nero.  I removed Nero.  I did all the updates. I have not released the driver and reinstalled.  He claims to have the latest driver software, but it won't work.  The computer can see the CD/DVD, but he calls it a 'CDROM '.  It is not the case.  It is a DVD/Cd-RW with Labelflash.

  I did everything suggested that past discussions.  I ran FIXIT program that claims that the drive works properly.  It is not the case.

  I tried to get various programs to recognize.  They cannot see the installed media.

  I uninstalled iTunes.

  Please do not give me the answer of cut-and - paste stock; It does not work.

  Please tell me what to do to make Vista see the media inserted in the CD/DVD-RW drive.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Well, if you have tried all the usual bugs try this:

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

  Then go to right click on UNINSTALL - - CD/DVD - Device Manager CHECK THE DRIVERS to REMOVE and
  continue.

  Reset.

  Occasionally, install an upgrade or a re - install will fix the problem and of course the drive or other hardware issues
  could be at stake.

  =====================================

  Here's the answer, just in case there is something you don't have, and I start up and down.

  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

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
