CD/ DVD Drive is not reading any discs! - HP Pavillion DV6747TX

Hi there, I have a problem. My CD/ DVD Drive is not reading any discs! I have no idea what's happened..it was going fine and then all of the sudden it stopped working.
The computer I have is a HP Pavillion DV6700 or DV6747TX to be exact and the CD/DVD-Rom drive is a TSSTcgrp CDDVDW TS%L632N ATA Device. It seems to be present in the Device Manager and in the Computer Menu. When I put a CD or DVD into the disc drive lights are blinking and it sounds like it's trying to load or do something, but nothing is coming up. CD Drive E still says CD Drive E instead of reading the disc that's in there and when I click on Drive E it says Windows cannot read the disc in drive E.
I have tried searching the net for answers including the suggestions on this website and have tried a few other ideas I have come across but nothing seems to be working. Any help would be greatly appreciated

This is usually a known software conflict and happens across the board will all computer manufacturers due to a issue with multiple media burning/ripping applications being installed on your system.

CD/DVD Drive is not reading any discs on Equium A100

My cd/dvd drive is not reading any discs whatsoever, blank, written or commercially written. It opens and closes and the light to show it is working is on. Device manager says the device is working properly.
Tried updating drivers, no updates available. Tried system restore back 1 day then 1 week then 1 month and still the problem cannot be rectified. When i put a cd/dvd in the drive and try to access it, it says: D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.
Can anybody help me i've tried everything me and my friends can think of, or is it a better idea to just send it back to toshiba under the warranty.

Hello,
Here are a few windows articles that could help.

This one might do the trick, if not try this one.

Hope these help resolve the problem. If not it could be a registry setting error which can be rectified as well. But only if these 2 above do not help to resolve the problem.

HT2801 My DVD drive is not reading any DVD

My iMac's DVD drive is not reading any DVD. Whenever I am inserting any DVD, The DVD icon is not appearing and the DVD is ejected out after sometime. I have also tried the troubleshooting steps given in the apple support site by restting the SMC but my iMac still does not read any DVD. What do I do now? Somebody help me.

Could try purchasing a commercially available, retail dry brush CD/DVD lens cleaning system disc. These can sometimes revive a malfunctioning optical disc drive.

G60t-200 CD/DVD drive won't read XP discs

I recently re-installed Windows 7 Home Premium after I had a blue screen crash forcing me to re-format the hard drive on a g-60t-200. I've installed all the recommended Windows updates as well as all the HP updates for the g60t-200 model that I have but now the CD/DVD drive will not read the files on older discs that I burned using Windows XP on another machine. It shows the disc in the drive and shows the folders on the disc but when you open the folders, the files are not visible. When I right click and open up the properties of the disc while it's in the drive it shows it as "UDF" format. The other machines in the house running Windows XP can read the disks just fine and show all the files. Is there an update or driver I'm missing that will allow the drives to read the files on discs burned using Windows XP?

Hi sherifawad, and welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that after restoring your computer, you can no longer read CD/DVD's that were burned on XP with the Windows 7 operating system. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue. I suggest that you make sure that you have the latest service pack for Windows 7. Here is the Service Pack and Update Center for Windows.
I am including this document for Using HP Support Tools to Update HP Software, Drivers, and BIOS with Windows 7.
I hope this helps, please let me know how it goes.
Thank you,
I worked on behalf of HP.

After SL-DVD drive won't read any dvd-ejects it after spinning some time

Yesterday I bought the SnowLeopard DVD in order to do the update of my Mac OS.
Right after inserting the DVD in the drive (MATSHITA CD-RW CW-8221) it started to have some problems with reading the DVD.
The Drive has stopped recognizing/reading any blank DVD media (and many recorded DVDs, including movie discs). It spins for some time with a noise and then ejects it out. The same media works fine in my Toshiba laptop.
I tried several times, but the drive isn't able to read the DVD and now has the same problem with other CD-Roms and DVD.
I am very suprised (and angry) about it, especially because I hardly use the drive.
As a lot of other people are having the same problem, there seems to be a structural problem with the drive and I think that Apple has to clearify if they are planning to do something and what.

Mine MacBook seems to be doing almost the same thing. The SL disk spins a bit then is ejected. It does the same thing with my first SL disk and the one Amazon sent as a replacement. I had the same trouble with the 10.5 Install disk purchased retail. Apple sent a replacement Non-retail disk and it worked. I can burn DVDs and read DVDs I've burned.

My DVD Drive won't read Any DL Dvd

Hello, I have a problem. I am trying to burn a DVD+R DL from memorex and everytime I put it in my drive it always eject. But the drive works since I just re-installed my OS from the mac OS boot disc that came with the computer when I bought it. And I also installed programs from dvd before. Is this a driver not updated or my dvd drive is broken or what's wrong with my computer. Please help me. BTW, My computer is running on leopard, its a unibody 2,4ghz.

You can try resetting the SMC Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
and PRAM How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
If that doesn't help you can try a cleaning disc or a quick shot of canned air. It's likely though that your drive has failed, it' not all that uncommon. It that is the case you can either replace it or have it replaced but it's far cheaper just to buy a usb external drive....just not Apples because it won't work with macs with a built in drive working or not. .

DVD/CD drive won't read any discs

I have a Satellite A660 PSAW0U-0J3040, and the DVD drive, which has worked fine up until now, suddenly won't play DVDs or CDs. The last thing I did with it was rip a CD, which worked fine, but then it would not play the DVD I put in. The drive is recognized, and the hardware information says it is working properly, but when I put in a disc, it does not recognize that there is a disc in the drive. A green light flashes when I first put it in, then turns orange. In My Computer, if I click to open the drive, it ejects and tells me to insert a disc. Same thing happens with a blank disc. Restarting the computer & updating driver didn't help. Is there anything I can try to fix this, or is the drive just broken?
If so, any idea where I could find a replacement one? The link from Toshiba's support page doesn't work, and I don't know the model number of the drive. In fact, I'm not even sure how to remove the drive. It doesn't seem to just pop out like the one on my old laptop did.

Sounds like a good plan. The next troubleshooting steps I would have suggested were to use Microsoft System Restore and, if that fails to solve it, to try a full recovery. However, hopefully the replacement works in your computer!

CD/DVD drive won't read any CDs or DVDs

Whenever I insert a DVD, CD, or CD-ROM my computer won't read the disc. The computer starts making noise like it is reading the disc but then it stops. It tries 3 times (starts and stops) and then just spits the disc out. I can't watch movies, install software, etc. How do I fix this.

Before taking it or sending it anywhere I'd first try resetting PRAM…

Equium A60 - DVD drive does not read data discs

Hello
I am having a problem with my DVD drive on my Toshiba Equium A60 laptop. The DVD drive (Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-K13A ) will play shop bought films etc without a problem. it will also read a blank DVD when you put it in the drive but once information/Data is on the disc it wont detect the disc.
I am not really that good with computer so any help would be most grateful. The computer used to play everything it just stopped doing it a few months back.
Many thanks Phil

The issue is clear.
Fact is that not all CDs and DVDs are supported and compatible. There could be always an issue with a reading or writing
The same happened to me too I had to test different CDs and DVDs from different manufacturers and finally some medias worked
In your user manual you should find a list of medias which were tested and should run properly check it!

Drive is not reading any discs on my Satellite A100-192

Hi,
today i wanted to watch a dvd movie, i've inserted the disc into the drive and waited for an autostart to play...nut nothing happened.
Drive LED is on all the time and i can't access the drive in windows. I've tried with several original dvd discs and one blank cd /i've got nothing else in here/.
What could cause this problem?
I've tried it in Windows XP and Vista Beta 2 :/
Best regards,
Krystian

Hi
One question: Did you use the Toshiba recovery CD? If not, please check if this issue appears on the Toshiba image.
If you dont get any auto start messages after DVD inserting into the drive so I would firstly check the settings.
Please make a right click on to the drive icon. Then please select the AutoPlay tab.
There you can choose the dvd movie and select an action. Otherwise you can enable the option prompt me each time to choose an action
If this doesnt help so you can also try to remove the drive from the device manager. After this procedure please reboot the unit. The OS should recognize the drive again. Then try to play DVDs again

My ENVY 17 3D's Bluray drive does not read any disc.

I got a refurbished ENVY 17 3D (i7 740Q) and having a bluray drive issue.
When I insert a disc in to the drive it keeps spitting the disc out after a few seconds. And I can't hear any motor spinning sound. It's weird, I mean at least it should be reading the disc then spit it out, on the other hand it do exist in my SYSTEM. I didn't have a single burning CD software installed but I did install an iTunes. Should I return it to HP?

Anyone has solution to this, before I decided to send it to HP for repair?
I tried the Optical Drive Diagnostic using HP support assistant, but since the drive keep ejecting the media (CD/DVD/BR) for testing, I can't complete the diagnostic. I uninstalled and reinstalled with the latest drive update, still the same problem, even with the latest BIOS update.
I even went with a complete system recovery reboot and still can't solve the problem. The BR drive worked fine since it's recognized by the system, and Windows does not show any error. So why does it keep ejecting the CD/DVD/BR?
This happened out of the blue btw, so I have no clue what caused the problem. It was working fine like moments ago.

Satellite A100-447 - DVD drive won't read some discs

Hi,
I have a 4 month old Satellite 100-447 (PSAAN), came pre-loaded with Vista Home Premium, and has a Mat****a UJ-850S super-multi DVD/CD drive.
The DVD drive is not functioning correctly. It will recognise some blank DVD's, but never DVD-R and will not recognise any burned DVD's at all. It's fine with CD's, and with DVD movie discs. It's just recordable DVD's where there's a problem.
Also when attempting to write to a DVD when it does choose to recognise one it errors out half way through.
What can I do?
Thanks for your help.
Adam

Hi,
you can do the follwowing:
Go to this website http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp ,
download the latest firmware update for that drive, install it and then try it again.
Sometimes the manufacturer have to update their drives for the newest recordable media and so I think it can be possible that your drive is simply not up-to-date.

Equium P200 - DVD drive does not read all discs

My DVD Drive has just started reading some discs and not others, also some of the discs are not read all the time, you can put a disc in click on the dvd drive and it'll open the drive and say insert a disk, device manager says device working properly and driver upto date.
Does anyone know what the problem is?

Yes, terentino is right. Would be helpful if you could tell us which discs exactly work and which not. Maybe that would give the answer.
Did you installed more than one burning application? Sometimes several installed burning applications could interfere with the other one since every application installs some kind of libraries with their own burning/driver engine to control the functions of your drive.

DVD drive does not read SOME discs

Hello there,
My DVD drive had been working fine for the last 2 years, but now it sometimes simply won't read some film DVDs. The problem is not related to the DVD area thing. What happens is that I put the disc in the drive, it spends a long time spinning the disc around, and then nothing happens: explorer just shows as if there was no disc in the drive.
My laptop is a HP Compaq 6715s. My system is Windows XP SP3. My drive lists as a HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20L. (For some reason, although I only have one physical drive, another device is listed in the Device Manager just underneath the GSA-T20L: a TSHAJWP XAZ0TU7SPEF SCSI CdRom. But I believe this is a virtual drive created by Deamon emulator?).
All hints and help would be greatly appreciated!
Best,
Pedro

Also, I forgot to say that I have tested the films that don't work in my machine elsewhere, so I am certain the problem is not in the discs themselves.
