DVD ROM GH40L

I own a Pavillon 6047it, with Windows 32-bit. I got a crash of my HD. After changing it, I tried to reinstall the OS trough the recovery disks I got with the PC. When I start the installation process, I got a message " The CD-ROM drivers are required". I tried to find them in the OS disks, but they are missing and it's impossible to go forward. The DVD ROM mounted is a HL-DT-ST GH40L.
I tried to find out the drivers on internet, but it was impossible, also the producer site has not listed this kind of model.
Can someone help me? How to solve the problem?
Many thanks

  • Mounting a Solaris x86 CD/DVD from a remote Windows CD/DVD-ROM drive

    Greetings, all.
    Is it possible to mount a remote Windows CD/DVD-ROM drive? I have the Solaris 10x86 Companion Software DVD sitting in a CD/DVD-ROM drive that's installed on a Windows server on my network. It is shared-out (F:) and the two servers can ping each other. I've also confirmed the NFS services/daemons are running on the Solaris x86 machine. I've tried the following variations but, all have failed to produce successful results:

    I've also tried mounting it at bootup by adding the appropriate entry in the /etc/vfstab file but, this does not work as well. I've tried Google'ing for an answer to my issue but, I haven't been able to find anything that applies directly to what I'm reporting. It's usually chatter about mounting from one UNIX server to another. Any advice from the community would be greatly appreciated.

    After three weeks, you deserve a reply. Windoze does
    not natively support NFS.Also deserves a decent answer...
    There are two ways to do this:
    Install Microsoft's free "Windows Services for UNIX," which includes a Windows NFS server; or
    Install the 'sharity' package (google for it); it provides Solaris systems the ability to mount Windows shares

  • PowerMac G5 doesn't work anymore simply due to a DVD-ROM drive removal!

    Hello, here's what's happened (I'll write using the "present" because I'm not English).
    This happened about two days ago:
    I need to read an Ultra ATA hard disk, so I power off the Mac.
    I remove the SuperDrive DVD-ROM and I connect the hard disk in its place (I already made this with other ATA hard disks in past and it always was OK).
    I close the Mac.
    I try to start: nothing! The light on the power-on button of the Screen (Apple Cinema Display 20" plastic) and the light on the power-on button of the Mac case starts flashing 3 times (then stop, than other three times, etc...).
    So I power off. I change the jumper configuration of the hard disk, like the Super Drive. I try again: NOTHING. Always three-times flashing the lights.
    So I power off. I re-install the DVD drive, close the Mac again and restart it.
    SURPRISE: the same symptom! The computer doesn't start and always makes the three-times flashing lights...
    So I tried totally removing the DVD drive, and restarting it without it: nothing: same symptom.
    Unfortunately I made these attempts forgetting to disconnect the power cable of the Mac!
    Then I start trying with other RAM configurations, hoping that just a RAM module got burned. I have 6 ram modules (512 MB each).
    I try lots of combinations... nothing, always same symptom.
    Finally, I disconnect the power cord again, I re-install all the RAM modules, an I try to reset the CMOS: I remove the Motherboard battery for some seconds.
    Than I re-install the battery, close the Mac, connect the power cord, restart it: it works!!!
    I go in System Info, and I see that it doesn't recognize two of the 6 RAM modules: just 4. The slots of the other 2 not recognized DIMM modules seems empty, but there is the ram!
    So I power off the Mac Again. I disconnect the power cord.
    I change the RAM modules positions. I try again: nothing! Again the three-times flashing lights symptom, and always black screen again.
    So I try again by removing the CMOS battery... nothing... always flashing...
    After lots of attempts (also changing again the RAM positions, trying to remember how it was when it worked...)... nothing.
    I power off the Mac.
    After about an hour, I simply try to power on it... IT WORKED!!!
    I used it too... went on Internet, etc... Finished working, I powered it off and went to bed.
    The day after, I tried to power it on... nothing! Always three times flashing lights...
    From that moment, it was totally impossible to let it work...
    I tried to change the RAM positions again... I tried also pressing every time the reset button on the Mother Board... nothing...
    The only different symptom that I obtained, a couple of times, was that the two lights (on the Screen button and on the Mac tower button) didn't flash, but was always on.... but it didn't run anyway: totally black screen.
    How is this possible? Durin 18 years of computer hardware experience, NEVER happened that a computer got broken just removing and re-installing a DVD-ROM drive!
    And I'd never imagined that removing a DVD-ROM could be a dangerous operation... It seems to me just like a car that got broken if I replace the cigarette lighter...
    What do you think? how is this possible?
    If the CPU or the Motherboard or the RAM too got broken... simply it NEVER should run... on the contrary two times it worked very well!... with a broken Motherboard or CPU??? ...mmmm... so strange....
    If the RAM got broken... how is this possible? 6 ram modules burned together??? It seems so absurd... (in past there were 8 RAM modules... one or two got broken... so I removed them and it worked again... but not 6 !!!!).
    Any opinion?
    Any practical advice?
    Prevision of costs?
    Thank you!!!

    Hi Wolfman I have an update of the situation.
    We tried moving the RAM modules again... and at one point it worked! With just 2 RAM modules.
    But at the green screen (with the gray apple darker) it blocked.
    So we removed the two RAM modules and installed other two modules: it worked again! These two last modules are 512 MB each.
    So we restarted the system pressing "c" with the OSX DVD in the drive, and it worked! I used System diagnostic OSX utility and it found the 2 ram modules, but of 256 MB each instead of 512 !!! How is this possible? (if they were broken OK, but detect just half of its size seems so strange...).
    Than we restarted it again connecting an OSX bootable external Fire Wire LaCie hard disk (FW400 port), and it worked!
    We used DISK UTILITY to test the internal boot hard disk and it gave me an error (verify disk).
    The Disk utility was unable to repair the disk.
    Another damage!
    I remember that in the past attempts it booted once (not three times flashing) and stopped at the grey screen... (I think: maybe due to the boot hard disk error!).
    Unfortunately this external bootable firewire disk has got some problem and it sometimes blocks itself emitting a "clic".
    So I powered the mac off and connected another newer firewire lacie bootable hard disk. I connected it in the FW800 port. I rebooted and... surprise: three times flashing light again!!!
    No way to let it pass this wall, no initial "sound" again... nothing!
    So I removed the FW800 drive, and changed the RAM again (inverted them, always two internal slots n. 1 and 2): it worked!
    I booted from the FW400 hard disk, and it worked. I was able to backup some data from the internal hard disk (in order to be able to try to solve the error initializing it), and I tried again to boot with the FW800 hard disk (I want a stable system while initializing a drive!).
    As I connected the FW800 hard disk again, I tried to reboot... nothing! Again the three-times flashing light error! No sound... black screen again...
    (So, simply removing a DVD ROM I got RAM broken, maybe the Logic board, the hard disk too... maybe the FireWire 800 port too.... mmmm.... this mac is possessed! And it is connected through a professional power stabilizer too!).
    So after several attempts with RAM, cmos reset, firmware reset (power it up holding the power on button for some seconds), etc... I got it working again...
    So this time I rebooted it pressing "c" and I initialized the internal hard disk using the OSX DVD as boot drive...
    Then I rebooted from the FW400 hard disk and I used CarbonCopyCloner to restore an internal hard disk clone OSX complete installation from a .dmg image file in the FW800 lacie hard disk... but this time I connected it not using the FW800 port but through the USB 2.0 port... and it was able to copy the data.
    The computer was working... able to boot... no three times flashing error... no FW800 connections... always rebooting OK... the internal hard disk initialized, working, with NO errors (disk utility tested), made bootable...
    I tried to reboot again (with no "c" or "alt" pressing, hoping the internal boot hard disk working again): nothing!
    THREE TIMES FLASHING LIGHT AGAIN!!! No way to solve the problem now... always flashing...
    What is happening here??? I don't understand! I use computers (instable DOS/Windows computers mainly!!!) form about 18 years... never seen a so strange behaviour!!!
    We'll try to gather money to replace the RAM, before thinking to a Logic Board replacement...
    Your opinion?
    Thanks!

    so my T60 suddenly stopped recognizing the CD-RW/DVD ROM.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled and tried updating the drivers, but it keeps going into conflict in device manager.
    I went into the Bios to try and test, but it isn't recognized there either.
    What can be wrong with it. I have tried just about everything I know to fix it.
    please help 

    Restart your computer, when you see the Thinkpad splash screen press the blue button. Go into the diagnostics and test the cdrom from there. Report back with the results.

    check inside BIOS whether your ODD can be detected, if cant be detected must be connection cable or HW issue

    hi
    after i download new bootcamp and install new windows 8.1 pro i saw my dvd rom but after half an hour my dvd/cd rom removed and i can see this device in device manager.

    Third-party NTFS software interferes with the Apple NTFS drivers, which control whether you can see the Bootcamp partition in the Startup Disk option. As a test, can you uninstall all third-party NTFS software and check System Preferences -> Startup Disk?

  • DVD-Rom drive in Satellite C655-S5128 not working properly in Windows 8

    I recently upgraded my system from Windows 7 to Windows 8. However, the DVD-Rom drive after the upgrade no longer works properly -- it now treats the pre-recorded disk as if it was completely blank. I tried reinstalling the Toshiba Disc Creator, but that did not work.
    Any solution?

    You apparently did not use the Toshiba Upgrade Assistant in upgrading to Windows 8.  See HERE for DVD and Disk Creator problems occurring during the upgrade and solutions.

  • G3 Pismo DVD-ROM Problem

    The DVD-ROM (Model M7931, Apple P/N 661-2244) in my G3 Pismo is not working properly. When a CD or DVD is input the drive spins, but makes slow & fast spin speed noises. Then it quits without reading the CD or DVD. The lens is clean & the drive appears in the System Profiler. When I replace the DVD-ROM drive with a CD-ROM drive (M73888), the CD drive reads a CD, so apparently the electronics within the G3 are OK.
    I've read in forums that these drive have been problematic. Has anyone attempted a repair of the drive or know what might be the problem? The Service Manual troubleshooting doesn't suggest much, except replace. Since the drive is inop & possibly need to be trashed, I'm not adverse to trying to disassemble & attempt a repair. I can continue to use the CD-ROM drive.
    I doubt that I will replace the DVD-ROM because used ones appear to cost $50+ & new ones about $100+. Is there an alternate (cheaper $) PC drive that could be used?
     Cheers, Tom

    It's fixed. WD40 to the rescue.
    I was considering swapping the Apple drive with a PC drive (see first link below, Plan B), but thought I would do a little troubleshooting (Plan A).
    I opened the drive tray from it's enclosure. Using a #0 jeweler's Phillips screwdriver, I removed the metal cover plate screws (5). Then removed the screws (3) holding the motor/plate assembly. Carefully lifted the motor assembly upward at about a 45 degree angle (flex cables were attached). Looking at the side, there was about a 1mm gap between the motor & the plate. Using the plastic nozzle on a can of WD40, sprayed a small amount of lubricant. Let it sit for a few minutes & rotated the spindle. Reassembled everything.
    I inserted a CD, didn't hear any spinning noise & the CD icon appeared on the screen. Repeated with a DVD. Both were being read. Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • DVD drive will not read DVD-Roms

    I recently tried to reinstall a game that I had played previously, only to find that my drive will not read it. I can hear the disk spinning, but my computer will not recognize that there is a disk in the drive. I tried some of my other games and I noticed that all of the older games, that ran on CD-Rom, had no trouble installing, while the ones that ran on DVD-Rom never showed up in the drive.
    This is strange because I have installed all of these DVD-Rom games on my laptop before with no problem. I've tried doing simple fixes, like updating everything and uninstalling then reinstalling the drivers, but nothing helps. 

    Hi,
    If it worked before then try few System Restore points and check. Could have happened due to some update.
    Also provide the Product number of your notebook if restore doesnt help.
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
    Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • I just installed a new DVD rom/CD-R drive in my G4...I can't install OS!

    Hey guys!
    A friend recently gave me his G4, but the CD/DVD drive wasn't working, so I went to Best Buy and bought a CDRW/DVD-ROM Combo Drive by "Dynex." I installed it and the tray pops out and it appears to be doing something when I put in the operating system DVD, but the screen blinks a file folder and a question mark.
    There is no operating system currently installed.
    Are only certain drives compatible with this computer, or is there something I should be doing upon start-up?
    Thanks!

    Hey! I Found out the drive I was using was incompatible. I put in a Pioneer drive and it worked great.
