Z3-615 all in one PC - CD/DVD player

Hi, drive CD/DVD My suddenly stopped being recognized and I tried to update the driver - (he said I had later) - I then uninstalled, thinking it would be re - install when I rebooted, it - which has not happened.

Any ideas where I could download the driver CD/DVD - I don't see anything on the ACER site.

Thank you

There is no CD/DVD driver for the optical drive. The driver is included in the operating system and should be recognized automatically by Windows. So all of a sudden it has stopped working you can try to update the Windows operating system to rule out a software problem. If the drive does not appear after a refresh or restore, there may be a hardware problem.

  • Re: Question about the CD/DVD player for Portege M400

    I have a Portege M100 - and the CD-ROM drive does not work.

    Whenever I put a disc in I can just hear the motor turn the disc, but the computer is not picking up the drive. Device Manager picks up flawless.

    It doesn't seem to be any firmware for this sorting (or am I wrong).

    I've seen a DVD player for a M400 on ebay and I was wondering if that would take on my M100.

    Before buying it, I was wondering if anyone knew if it would be compatible. It seems to be OK size wise, but I was wondering if my Portege M100 XP would be able to use it.

    The description for the drive I want to put in the M100 is below:

    Thank you very much for your time. :)

  • 23 - a305a Pavilion all-in-one: call for support of HP in Australia / driver DVD replaced and broken again

    Hello

    Does anyone know a phone number for HP support in Australia? I got to a page on the site saying call within hours of opening, but I can't find a number anywhere.

    If anyone knows how to get my DVD driver is working again, it would be even better. He works for a period of time when a DVD is inserted, and then abandoned. The DVD player does not detect the DVD and he himself is more listed as devices and drivers.

    I had the computer 18 months. I had the same problem there (when it was still under warranty) of 12 months and ultimately, a technician is out and replaced the DVD drive. It worked well between yesterday and today but now the alternative driver seems to have developed the same problem. That is why I would call HP to discuss.

    Thank you

    Contact HP Australia via one of the methods on the HP web document to the address following.

    http://WWW8.HP.com/au/en/contact-HP/contact.html

    Use of the DVD drive (optical drive) have a driver. It uses the firmware just like a hard drive. What you are experiencing, is probably the firmware or controller failure in the hardware of the optical drive.

  • HP Envy all in one PC: Recovery Manager, the system restore is disabled by a virus

    Had a virus on my all in one PC envy after a free update to windows 10. Computer has been closing down could not get antivirus to work fast enough. After reboot system had disappeared. There is now no operating system. HP Envy Recovery manager, System Recovery is not highlighted, do not not the possibility to do a restore? Virus stronger than I've ever met. Thank you in advance.

    NIP

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    It would NOT in fact the virus which prevents HP Recovery Manager to work.

    While Microsoft says there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always return to your BONES and the original installation program within 30 days, the ugly fact of the matter is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when she fails, she can let machines in a State corrupted - that does not always happen , but it happens often enough to be a problem and you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!

    If this is not enough, the Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt partition recovery stored by the OEM that built the original machine. It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Video-Display-and-Touch/HP-Recovery-Manager-Blocked-After-Windows-10-Upgrade/td-p/5170752

    What you would really need to do, is to erase the entire disk and restore your PC using something known as HP recovery media.

    HP recovery media is a set of DVD and a CD or a USB key, which will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP. In some cases, you will be able to order a USB instead of discs. You must order at HP; they cannot be downloaded.

    You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers

    Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version. Click on "Update". If the HP recovery support is available for your computer, down near the bottom of the page, you will see an entry for the command Recovery Media-CD/DVD/USB. Click on the symbol '+' to expand this entry and click on order to press for more details.

    Or, if you prefer, you can do the same by contacting HP Customer Service:

  • Internal speakers on my HP ENVY TouchSmart all-in-One desktop PC 23-d027c no longer works

    Hello

    I just bought my HP ENVY 23-d027c TouchSmart all-in-One PC of office a few days ago.  It was working fine until I tested the speakers.  When you watch youtube videos, the internal speakers will stop working, while the mute button is not enabled.  It takes a few minutes, and then the speakers work again, only to cut out once more.  IT IS SO FRUSTRATING!  What's weirder, I put a dvd to see if it was the speakers, but the audio on the dvd seems to work very well.  Also, when I use headphones, the speakers work fine.  I don't know what the deal is, but according to my research, this seems to be a fairly common phenomenon on HP computers.  I'm struggling on the Exchange on this computer.  IF this isn't a simple solution, this machine will return to the store!

    Help, please!

    Thank you in advance!

    Wayne

    Hello MakCo,

    Your speakers are not working correctly.

    Go to Device Manager, uninstall the IDT audio and restart the computer.

    Uninstall it and reinstall the audio driver.

    Here is a link to the Device Manager.

    Do a hard reset.

    Turn off the computer.

    Remove the power cable and battery.

    Hold down the power button for 15 sec while booth energy sources are deleted.



    This should reset the hardware in the computer.

    That you put it on press the F10 key. This will load the BIOS setup utility.

    Press F9 to load the default values.

    Press F10 to save and exit.



    When the computer starts up, check if everything is working.

    I would like to know how everything goes

    Nice day.

  • Pavilion 23 q255na: cannot install all CD in PC Pavilion all-in-one software

    I have a new office of Pavilion all-in-one with a reader of CD/DVD/BluRay "slimline". I have a number of CD with installation software on this device, but when I load them (have tried both ways round!) he ignores them completely.

    If it's supposed to happen?

    If this is not the case, what would I do differently?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi there @Everyman99,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that your system is not reading any CD/DVD that you have tried. I'm happy to help you with this.

    You are able to read any disks at all? Is it auto burned discs, or store bought music or software disks or all of them that you are having problems with?

    Depending on your answer, go to the section of this document: HP - Drive computers impossible reading discs (10, 8 Windows)

  • Desktop PC HP all-in-one 19-2113w: backup hard drive

    Greetings.

    I want to backup the drive on my HP 19-2113w all-in-one desktop PC on a disk external usb, with a live dvd of CloneZilla.

    The problem is this: I can't get the pc to boot from the live dvd, because it will not allow UEFI.

    I can't disable startup secure UEFI BIOS and enable boot inherited, but it does not actually change anything.

    How can I accomplish this?

    Thank you.

    I'll try the link you sent, thank you...

    15:56 no, the bios still doesn't let me make the change. It seems to me to turn off the secure startup, but when I try to activate the starting inherited, the option is then locked... what to do now?

    01/12/2014: I have installed AOMEI Backupper, works very well despite the name and it is free. Problem solved.

    UPDATE: 22/12/2014 AOMEI actually NOT work that well and I discovered that to boot from the cd/dvd, press 'esc' and then 'f9' to select the dvd player, even if you do not change the bios settings. If you do not change the bios settings, you must first disable secure boot, save changes and exit the bios, then enter a code given by the bios to finalize the change.

    In addition, windows 8.1 has an option to start a UEFI approved dvd/USB key, in "changing pc settings/parameters/backup & recovery", you can select a boot option using a device.

  • All-in-one HP Officejet J4550: hp officejet j4550 all-in-one

    My moms computer was installed by my father and already the installation of the printer. She then began having some problems when printing lines by slots empty words in words. I tried cleaning the printer option, but that has not worked, also tried the alignment of cartridges but that also had problems, sometimes it could not detect the scanner test sheet and then we would say a mistake and return to the default settings. I was then going to the computer application, but he missed. I guess that when it was installed, it was not a complete installation.

    I then started to re - install from the cd without uninstalling it first. Thought it would be OK and just replace the existing files. Sometimes, this works for programs and sometimes you will need to uninstall first. When I loaded the cd it says that this version of windows was not compatible. Then, I searched the net and found this thread of Hp.

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/printer-all-in-one-install-Setup/Windows-7-and-OfficeJet-J4550-install/...

    I downloaded the new installation for win 64 files and down them, before he installed it there was an error (empty white error with a red x) and it wouldn't install. Then sent information to HP and said it has found a solution and downloaded to the desktop. Basically, he wanted to fix my installation but unplug the printer. So I did this and it worked fine during installation. Then when he got at the end during the setup I got a fatal error. Something about the configuration has expired or has been too long and we also found several files of HP. So he started to uninstall itself. I thought having bad uninstall programs, then put it back. So I did, worked well until the config part and then he did the time out or another error. The mistake of never came however duplicates. So I cancelled as fast as I could. I can print and scan from the program on the pc. But it lacks the features of the printer itself. As if I hit him scan it tells me to consult the manual. I just want to complete installation work. Any thoughts?

    I did all the steps, downloaded the packgage, uninstalled using l3.bat, did drop cleanboot, reboot, update adobe Flash Player as well as cleaning. Download the hp installation wizard. When running the wizard, it says there is a problem with my driver, then it starts to connect to the internet to download the software, but then said the download was cancelled, click Retry to try again but the retry button does not work. I have mcaffee AV, the only way ive seen turn off is to disable on the analysis of access and the firewall.

    Don't you have an another clean boot and no driver error, but the same error message when the installation wizard attempts to download the full software. Simply use the version of the software from the link has me http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Officejet-J4000-All-in-One-Printer-series/3645081/model/3645096#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1

    FINALLY HE GOT WORKING:

    Downloaded the basic print and scan driver package, ran the installation and it did not work. I started to think there must be a driver problem. Had similar problems with itunes where it wouldn't read my ipod even after an uninstall and reinstall. And for that I had to remove the driver and reinstall it, for some reason any it was causing problems.

    Make sure the name is exactly the same as the folder. After its extraction do the same for the complete package. After extraction, a HP screen may pop up, just close for now.

    1. If the printer software is installed, uninstall it.

    2. with the connected printer go to devices control panel\ Manager, right click on your printer and click on uninstall. Check the box in the lower right corner that says something like "Do you want to remove the software driver or files" then click on uninstall.

    If box is displayed, and then click cancel, right-click on your printer and select Properties, click on the driver tab at the top, then the Details button pilot. make a new file .txt on your desktop and enter in all of the files and the locations of eveything that appears. After that click OK, then driver tab, click on uninstall.

    Here are some of the files and locations but check they are all listed and not missing anything.

    c:\Windows\system32\drivers\usbscan.sys

    c:\Windows\system32\hpotscl1.dll

    c:\Windows\system32\hpowiav1.dll

    3. open a new file and copy and paste the address of each file in the search bar. It will look something like this

    c:\Windows\system32\drivers\usbscan.sys

    before hitting enter each need to be edited windows otherwise think you try to open the file rather than access the folder. So for the modified example will look like this

    c:\Windows\System32\Drivers

    the drivers folder is what you want to be in and the usbscan.sys is the file you want to check is removed. Do this for everything in your list. If the files have disappeared that has, if not manually delete them or move them to a new folder on the desktop until installation is complete just in case.

    4. (computer may or may not need to be restarted) and then unplug the printer, open the software package and the base driver and double-click setup.exe. Do the installation and when it asks you to connect the printer.

    5. after its installed according to your needs, you can either test its features to see if it has what you need or you go to install more packages / programs from the full version.  Double-click setup.exe for the full package, then it will ask you that you if you want to uninstall or install more software, select the installation of the software. He can just show 1 or maybe a little. If its does not display those you want to click on the buttons more or less recommended until you find what you are looking for. You can try to install more then one at a time, but for me it did not work, I had to do one at a time.

    As far as the folders on the desktop used for extraction, it is a good idea to keep those with your backup files unless you use a restore image, but it good to keep because the backup even images may have problems. I would recommend save their be on a cd/dvd, USB drive, external hard drive, the cloud storage lol somewhere just in case you need it again as well as installation instructions. If you have moved all the files in the driver instead of delete and your printer now works, you can remove them.

    NOTE: If keeping the package for later use, Exchange compressed files for those who have been extracted because they take less space. Unless you want to just the ones extracted. (Compressed are those you downloaded from HP in the folder downloads, extracts are those in the office used for installation folder.)

    And thank you Gemini02 for helping me with this.

  • HP All in One Photosmart C7280 scan issue with Snow Leopard

    Hello

    I bought my wife a new cool Mac mini. So it comes with Snow Leopard. We use it for our activities with an HP printer all in one Photosmart C7280. Unfortunately the scanner does not work. I did the mistack to install HP driver from the HP website and read after documentation of the HP Web site (probably like all users). So I decided to completely re-installed the machine (as it was new) and follow the installation procedure for HP who, to say that the pilot is coming up with Snow Leopard. After the new re - install, so I installed 10.6.1 patches and last HP driver from the site Web Apple as mentioned in the forum. (version 2.2)

    The printer is correctly detected, but there is no way mak it work the scanner on HP procedures. The scanner is not recognized at all, and the printer configuration window is not appearing the scanning tab as it is supposed to. It seems that the scan part it does not work in one.

    We love HP printer and it will be great to see it fixed.

    My network configuration is very simple:

    -192.168.0.176 is the IP address of the HP printer with 255.255.255.0 netmask

    -192.168.0.106 is the MacMini (3.1) IP address mask subnet even

    All connected using a router D-Link (5 ports).

    Printer/scan function works perfectly on our other Mac systems that are under Leopard. I tried to install Leopard on the new mac mini, but the installation DVD that we have (10.5.4) does not start successfully on the machine. We are so stuck.

    Any help really appreciated

    Jean-Marie

    Hello

    Good news, it worked. But I think that the problem came from the D-Link router that I used. Upnp has been set to allow, and it seems he mistook the discovery of the device. I proceed to turn off and the live showed you me overdrawn the printer on the network. I installed it, and the scanner has been recognized.

    If I turned my back to Activate Upnp, the scan function is dead. Thus, it probably is a problem of compatibility between the leopard to snow and this Protocol. What is strange, is that our whole system of leopard work with upnp enable or disable.

    Anyway thanks a lot for your help!
