Windows Media Center cannot detect the error DVD Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD into the drive
Original title: why Windows Media Center does not detect my DVD?
I built my computer motherboard ASUS P658D, Intel i7 processor clocked at 2.6 gHz, 12 GB RAM, 750W Corsair PWR. power, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit & ie9. When I put or the other two DVDs in one of two DVD players, Windows Media Center appears and when I click on "Play DVD" Media Center give me a window that says:
"Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD in the drive." Two DVDs, I've tried are educational for DVD
my Nikon D300 Digital camera and a family video DVD or both these very well play in a bed of same computer running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, & ie8.
I tried Microsoft Fixit, no help. I tried to send Microsoft Support, and I got NO HELP. I did not bring any changes, and installed any program, just
scoured the internet. A DVD player is a Sony Optarc with Microsoft Driver, the other is ASUS. I also tried to use Windows Media Player but nothing
rises or it returns me to Windows Media Center and it does not detect to play either of my DVD. How can I get help here, or from Microsoft? Thank you.
No, there is no yellow warning in Device Manager and the device manager says that two DVD players work properly. Mr. Fix it's
automated download from microsoft that is supposed to automatically fix some problems, but he provided no help here. I think it is more likely
that there is a problem with Windows Media Center or Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and either of my two new Sony DVD drives
and ASUS.
I thought my way in a solution. My thought was: Device Manager indicates DVD players work properly and both are new and we're Sony, and the other ASUS so I think only an unlikely problem with readers. The problem is with Windows Media Center "do DETECTED is not the DVD. So there must be a problem with Windows Media Center. I thought that I might need to reinstall Windows 7... then I thought that maybe if I just reinstall Windows Media that will work. He did. My problem was:
Start > Panel > programs and features > features on or off Windows activate > then uncheck the box for multimedia functions > restart the computer > and then re-check the box to restore the multimedia features > now both discs play both DVDs, I tried. Both disks are operating normally. Reinstall the characteristics of media Windows 7 resolved the problem. Thanks to all who offered solutions.

I insert the windows disc 8, but the system indicates that it is not the correct information. He is looking for another disc? I created a recovery usb drive, but that doesn't seem to help. I feel that I have completely new install windows 8 but I am nervous of course think I mess up something. given that this computer was originally shipped with windows 7, I have to use the recovery discs I've done initially or is there a way to create new ones with the new windows 8?
Hello and welcome!
If you are using a CD to upgrade of Windows 8, then there not all reinstall the files included for a full Windows.
Your best option is to use the recovery partition on your hard disk or the recovery CD from your PC back to Windows 7. Then Windows 7 SP1 upgrade and get all updates. Then, move to Windows 8 again.

My readers Optiarc DVD - RW AD-7530 ATA Device DVD/CD-ROM & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.
Although of course, the CD-ROM drive worked during the upgrade.
I noticed that when I turn firstly on the laptop, the last two lines of the front entry from Windows 7 are the following.
PXE - E6i:Media Test Failure, Check Cable
PXE - MOF: Exit PXE Rom
During the audit of each Properties in Device Manager devices", I learned that they both work correctly. In the list in the printers and the @Devices the only Webcam shown is also a "USB 2.0 Camera"
Can someone help me please?
Best regards
JohnBesides what abdelhak says:
The message of PXE boot that you receive when you start your computer has nothing to do with your CD/DVD-Rom drive. Your computer uses a PXE boot method to attempt to load Windows from a location on your network. Since you do not have this configuration, it is safe to ignore it. If it slows down the startup time of your system, contact your manufacturer and ask them for instructions on how to "disable PXE Network Boot of the BIOS.

Try following the steps under "Windows XP" in the article following the MS KB:

These measures, to remove the UpperFilters and LowerFilters, values if they exist, in the registry key named can help.

need to repair the startup of windows, files, but cannot use the cd-rom drive
for the past 6 months that I had to use a return to the top of the boot disk to get windows to load so I could copy all my important files and documents on DVDs as my windows xp edition home sp3 OS suddenly stopped wanting to load normally and I'd just reformat the HD
Last week... my browser froze causing me to have to stop by turning off the power button... to restarting my pc, my cd-rom drive is not found and now I am unable to finish to copy my important files and these DVD
is there anyway I can repair windows without using the cd-rom drive... .. I can get in the F12 boot menu but not in the installer of F2 or F8 safe mode without using a cd-rom drive to launch the boot disk
2.2 under Win XP home edition sp3 dell xps 210 system, intel duo core processor 4 GB ram and 500 GB HD
It has only 1 CD/dvd-rom combo drive and 4 smaller slots for memory cards and other... I have 3 slots open usb but do not have the files of windows to a flash drive recovery
would it be possible to make a recovery file or file on a USB stick the size of a flash drive and boot would need... currently the largest one I have is 4 GB

c. If this isn't the case, then unplug the unit and he reconnected inside the CPU/Tower.
d. check the result.Step 2: If the device is detected in the BIOS, try the following steps:
a. start your computer and boot to the desktop.
b. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
c. select my computer, click the Action menu and click scan for hardware changes.
d. check if the CD/DVD device is listed in the list.Step 3: If the problem persists, restore the computer
see How to restore Windows XP to a previous state .

Hi, Bérard
So I have a problem with cd/dvd rom drive.
After that I updated with the last computer driversmy, the player can not open:(j'ai fais redémarre et c'est le même...) When I press the drive button to open, it flashes orange led for two or three times and nothing happens, the drive is always busy.Before reinstalling with the old windows version of the drivers worked well, but that sometimes it did not work... and now it's doing nothing all the time.
Is my windows 7 x 64, updated drivers to update yesterday. Can someone help me?
Hello
You can find a small hole near the CD/DVD to eject the drive.
Put a small card or PIN in this hole and the CD/DVD drive should eject manually.
In my case, it always helps.
Good luck

In Device Manager, my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive has a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside. I tried to use the online solution to correct, but it does not find a solution. I also tried to update the software, but no luck there. Help, please.
Thank you
iSavageFirst thought: try reading the Windows Installation DVD. If it works, then your player works properly, at least a little.
Next: You tried to update the drivers for the CD/DVD in Device Manager? Generally, Windows is plug and play for this type of devices. This means that if you install, Windows will load the proper drivers and they will work.
So-
If you have restarted?
Did you test the drive?
Try to uninstall the driver in the device and restart Manager.
Have you looked in the BIOS to see if the CD-ROM drive is activated?It is generally true that a yellow triangle mean a driver problem.
That it should be fixed by uninstalling the driver and restarting.If you still have problems, post ack with more details and we'll see what we can do for you.
See you soon!

How can I fix an error code 10 with my dvd/cd rom drive?
Hello
I have vista a window and my dvd rom drive has an error 10 code on it. He has demonstrated since the end of August and I'm not sure how to get rid or correct the problem. I was wondering if I did system restore to the day before where the error showed that would work? Although I don't know how to that date on the restoration of the system, I thought I'd ask. I have a hp pavilion dv9000 and I tried to delete the upperfilter thing and even used Microsoft solve this quiet a few times and nothing has worked, and since I downloaded Service Pack 2 a week ago he would keep trying to disappear and reappear in my device manager. So if there is anyway you can help please let me know!
Thank you
