  Hello

  It is not unusual for the same problem have an impact on both drives, in fact, is planned.

  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.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  You can probably find more info here and maybe even the exact registry for your CD/DVD settings
  drive from someone with the same model.

  Use DevManView to locate the CD/DVD in the registry (be careful and do a prior Restore Point)
  nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

  DevManView - free - an alternative to the standard Windows Device Manager, which displays all the

• Card reader does not recognize the card when inserted

  original title: card reader problems.

  I have a laptop Acer TravelMate, there is a map on the side drive. I also have a Panasonic Lumix digital camera. problem is when I insert the camera card into the slot on the laptop, there is nothing.  my 1st thought being that I need to download and install a card reader driver. I've done that now, but still nothing.
  I just wonder, being a technophobe (not computer smart), unless im missing something here that is obvious to people who are more experienced.
  Any help would be appreciated

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

  Control Panel - Device Manager - hard disk - drive SD card or similar - double click - tab driver-
  Click on update drivers (this likely will do nothing that MS is far behind the certifying drivers) then right click
  following the UNINSTALL.

  Now bring the controllers USB - right click - UNINSTALL everything in category one at time EXCEPT

  Here is the similar procedure under XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.

  Start - type in the search box - Windows Disk - find Windows Disk Management on the list above.
  Right-click - look RUN AS ADMIN to see if there is a drive letter assigned or a conflict.

  Check with the manufacturer of your system for the updated drivers - some card readers to do not use windows
