Hp pavilion dv7. i get a problem of dvd player hp bd-re bt10n.

hp pavilion dv7. i get a problem of dvd player hp bd-re bt10n. it indicated that " windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing."

Hi,
First, try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below.
Windows 7
Vista
Check if the drive is now working.
If it still doesn't work, click the Start Menu, open All Programs, open Accessories, right click the Command Prompt and select 'Run as Administrator'.  In to the prompt type the following command and hit enter.
sfc /scannow                 ( note that there is a space between sfc and the / )
Let the process complete, then type exit and hit enter. 
Next, click the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager.  Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives.  Right click the drive and select uninstall.  Do not delete drivers if asked.  When the device has uninstalled click on the 'Scan for Hardware Changes' icon ( usually just below Help on the toolbar ).  Let windows reinstall the drive and see if it now works.
Regards,
DP-K

    Literally in last 24 hours.  all was working fine. then Stopped.
    Device not working is : hp DVDWBD TS-LB23L ATA Device
    Whirrrs like reading disc...even gets the disc icon on windows.
    Have scoured these boards and tried everal of the solutions.....
    1.  tried uninstalling and reinstalling Driver as described on these boards... didnt work
    2. tried MATS on microsoft website....didnt work
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/cd_dvd_drive_problems/
    3.  Tried the Revo uninstaller attempt .... didnt work
    4. tried the CC Cleaner attempt ... didnt work
    5. Tried the ATA channel delete ... didnt work
    6. tried the BIOS update  here : HP Mediasmart DVD failure - HP Support Forum
    as additional clarification..... no physical damage to computer....Discs being used are all functional Blu or CD or DVD.
    HP Mediasmart DVD is still not working.
    NO installation of new programs prior to this going on.
    My same fire wall program, anti-,malware has been on this computer since I purchased it 7 months ago.
    No software changes in system.
    I do not use the Comodo firewall system either.
    Thank you

    Have you tried installing a trial Blu-ray player. Don't use one from Cyberlink as it's too close to Media Smart DVD.
     Use Arc Soft 
      http://www.arcsoft.com/estore/software_title.asp?ProductCode=TMT5P&gclid=COXEpJ6CqqcCFQEKbAodpQdSCw
    ----Will give that a whirl when I return home.
     Have you tried the obvious and picked a Windows restore point to where it was working ?  -------Windows 7, in that particular machine isn't letting me dial back for an earlier restore point..... it isn't even letting me see dates....Believe me I would have been happy to dial back a week or two.  Not sure why, Havent been able to dig in that direction....was trying to be careful about not digging a deeper hole before moving all important work files and stuff to a different machine before toying with windows deeper.
     Maybe the drive itself has failed, do you you have another HP laptop that you can try it in ?-----have several HPs...might try that soon.
     Check "Autoplay" in the control panel.----have done the autoplay fixes that have been proposed in other chains of similar problems....no avail.
     I will keep throwing ideas at you no matter how simplistic they may seem. I find that it starts people thinking in another direction.     --------Believe me, I appreciate it, just as long as it doesn't devolve into .....Is the machine plugged in?  
     Have you tried burning a DVD with it ?   Not yet, that is a good idea.
     Try installing Image Burn and  see if the drive will create ISO files with a Blu-ray disk. You will get a warning that Image Burn can't do this, but continue and let it dead the whole disc. Let me know if that works and I will give you the software to play the movie from the ISO files.
     http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
     Use mirror 8 provided by Image Burn.
     What version of Media Smart DVD are you running ?  Was using the most recent release......then uninstalled it and went back a few versions... to one that was linked to in another similar thread.  
    Thanks.

  • Problem with DVD Player

    I inherited this computer and have spent the last couple of months upgrading it. Put a gig of ram in and added a PCI card to help with a multi screen setup but now I have hit my first major head ache. I bought a Pioneer DVR - 104 off of ebay and installed it no problem. The only issue is once I went to test out my dvd feature I found I had no DVD player. I tried updating the system but it would not install it. So I finally was able to get 3.1 off of this site and it won't start up. It just blinks on the dock once and dissapears. I checked the specs and this machine came with the superdrive but my father opted out of it, why I don't know, so there should be no issues with the hardware, can anyone help me on this?

    Hi-
    I'm sorry the extras is in OS 10.4- my mistake. In OS 10.3, I believe the DVD player is in the main package. I couldn't find it to install seperately. So.......
    Let me recap-
    1- The DVR reads install discs
    2- DVD's won't play because DVD player does not run
    3- DVD-R discs show no response
    So-
    1- The DVR is reading
    2- The version of DVD player may not be compatible
    3- There is no burn support
    To check burn support, in System Profiler, check if under Burn Support "Yes" is showing.
    My current thinking is, that since there was no DVR in the origional configuration, you may need to reinstall (Archive and install) the OS 10.3 to get the proper DVD player installed. this should also configure burn support.
    The other way to get burn support is to use the patchburn that I gave you the link to.
    BUT, I think you should do things one at a time. My advice is to first get the DVR to read, play and burn in that order. There is obviously a problem with DVD player, so, unless some else can advise differently, I would try the Archive and Install of the OS 10.3.
    It may also be good to run the OS 10.3.9 Combined Update:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcombinedupdate1039.html
    trying the combined update now wouldn't hurt. If it does not remedy the situation, try the Archive and Install, then update.
    Best-

  • Problems with DVD Player 3.0.1 in G4/466

    Problems with DVD Player in G4/466
    Yes, I've a g4/466 with two disks. In the first there's system 9.2.2 and the DVD player goes perfect. In the second I've system 10.2 and the 9.2, and the DVD Player (3.0.1) on the system 10 begins to jump in the dock, but stop and nothing happens, I can't open it...
    There's any way to reinstal it form system disks???
    Or any download to check the error?
    Thanks

    1. Try using Pacifist to extract it from your Mac OS X 10.2 installation disks, and then run the combo updater for your version of Mac OS X and any applicable DVD Player updates.
    2. Open the Console application in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and look for lines relating to the DVD Player.

  • Pavilion dv7 - heating and fan problems, hinge broken - DO NOT PURCHASE THIS JUNK!!!

    This message is targetted towards people looking to purchase an HP Pavilion dv7 series of notebooks. Hopefully they are scanning these boards prior to purchase, something I (very) regretfully did not do.
    My system: Intel i7 Q720 @ 1.60GHz, 8GB, ATI mobility radeon HD5650 1GB, Windows 7 home premium 64 bit.
    Almost immediately, there were severe overheating problems. Even under normal use (1- 4% CPU, Word, Excel etc.) it became too hot on the left side to keep on my lap. My kids actually burned their hands on that part. I once used it on a table with a vinyl tablecloth. It actually melted the vinyl!
    Running any CPU/GPU intensive software causes a shutdown due to overheating, a real nuiscance with playing games or watching video in HD. Just as a test, I ran one computationally intensive program overnight while I kept the machine in my freezer. Even then, it overheated and shutdown! (I have not overclocked; just running my software on the hardware as purchased).
    Even in normal use, the fan runs very high, and is very noisy. It is so noisy that I cannot leave it on in my bedroom.
    Finally, because of the positioning of the vent, I am certain that the intense heat weakens the left hinge. I am very careful with how I open lids, always with both hands on the lid. Within two months, the left hinge cracked. I argued extensively with HP, but they insisted that it was my fault, and I was charged for the fix.
    I'm wondering whether the designers ever turned on (let alone stress tested) these units prior to selling this piece of !@#$.
    Added bonus: within 4 months, the hard drive failed, though I can't pin that on HP. While the drive was getting replaced, I went out and bought an Acer. It had better specs than the HP, was cheaper, lighter, and even with the CPU at close to 100 percent, the heat is hardly noticable, and the fan is barely audible.
    I bought HP because most of the scientific instruments in our labs is manufactured by HP, and it is truly high quality , high precision equipement, some of it running for over 25 years problem free. From that, I really trusted the HP name, I trusted that their PC division would have equal quality and standards. !#$% was I wrong! I'm glad they're getting out of the PC business.
    The only reason I'm keeping this junk is because I took the extended warranty at the store, and under it, after three major repairs, they will get me a new notebook of equal or greater value. I can't wait for that inevitable third breakdown!

    The dv 7 eg 4012  is the biggest disapointment:
    the hinge brakes, it has an overheating problem!!!
    Be prepared to replace it after 12 months or pay the bill for the repairs, hundreds of dollars.
    I purchased the laptop directly from the hp online store about a year and a half ago.
    First of all I had to install the latest drivers because hp is not making sure it comes with up to date drivers.
    To find out what the problem was I had to contact the costumer service about 6 times.
    After about 12 months the laptop startet splitting at the left hinge.  The HP Costumer Service looked at the photos and told me this, Quote:  "We have received the attachment of broken hinges and find it is an user damage hence, the service of the Notebook would be done on chargeable basis."
    Before you want to buy a hp laptop, please type into google:  broken hinge hp laptop
    And you will see hundreds of posts of disappointed costumers.
    Even class action lawsuit have been taken out against them.
    For me, this was the last time that I invested about a 1000 Euros( bought it in Europe) in a product which needs to be replaced after a year and a half.
    Please stay away from this product,
    except you have plenty of time and money to keep this machine alive.

  • Pavilion dv7 4050ed - Windows Update Problems After First Installation

    I have only just today received my brand new HP Pavilion dv7 4050ed and commenced installation straight away.  There were no problems in the initial installation and I booted Windows for the first time successfully and let it do its auto installs for things like Java and Adobe Reader.  I then moved to update and patch the laptop with Windows Update but immediately noticed that something was wrong.  Upon opening Windows Update I was met with a white cross in a red shield to signify an error.  When I prompted it to "Check for Updates" I was met with an error message stating, "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running.  You may need to restart your computer."  I get the same error message when I try to run Windows Live Messenger.
    After multiple restarts and checking in the control panel that the update service was allowed and working, the error message still appears whenever I try to update or patch my machine.  How can this kind of thing happen to a brand new machine that I've had for less than a day and has only had its basic settings chosen?  It simply will not update, or even recognize that the update service is available.  The internet is fully functional so it isn't any kind of connection problem.
    Has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem could be?
    I probably should just add that the laptop is a Dutch purchase with a bilingual setup.  I chose the English setup option but was advised to include this information in case it could in any way affect the update system.

    HP support provided me with the following link:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02219204&cc=nl&lc=en&dlc=en&product=4213233
    On this page there's a download called sp47845. After installing this, everything was working again.

  • Pavilion dv7-4060us Color Printing Problems...

    I just bought a new Pavilion dv7-4060us Notebook and am having problems printing in color.  I have a Xerox Phaser 8550DP PS Printer that I'm trying to connect to through a wireless network connection.  I can find the printer on the network and install the "Xerox Phaser 8550DP PS" driver online just fine.  But, after all that, when I try to print, it will only print in Black and White.  For some reason it just will not print in color.  I've looked through all my "printer properties" and it doesn't even show color options!  It's like my computer just doesn't even recognize that the printer can print colors.  Like maybe that printer's driver is for some reason not recognizing it as that actual printer?!
    I tried deleting the printer and the driver off my computer and installing it using the printer's original CD, but it says it's not compatible with Windows 7 OS.  But installing the driver via online and using the CD should basically be the same thing shouldn't it?  So that can't be the problem.  The "HP printer help website" doesn't really help at all because it's a Xerox printer and not an HP.  After reading through some forum posts I figured maybe it was a firewall problem, but wouldn't the firewall stop me from printing all together...not just prevent me from printing color?  
    Has anyone seen this happen before or heard of anything like this happening?  Right when I got the computer I kind of went through and deleted a few things I thought were Crapware, so the only thing I can think of right now is that maybe I accidentally deleted some kind of software program that lets me print color?!  Which doesn't really make any sense, so I don't think that's it.
    Also, I know it's not a Windows 7 OS problem or my wireless connection because my brother's computer uses Windows 7 and connects through wireless as well, but his can print color just fine.  He set his computer up like a year ago so he can't remember how he set it all up or what he did, so he's kind of useless.
    As of right now the only thing I can think of to do is try posting on this HP help forum and post on the Xerox Printer help forum and see if anyone has any advice for me.  If you have any ideas I'm up for trying anything because I pretty much NEED to be able to print from this computer!!  Any information can help out a lot so just let me know.  Thanks!

    I have exactly the same problem with my dv7-4171us, my husband has the same printer and it print fine on my Xerox but mine only prints in black and white, its very frustrating.  I called HP and after 2 hours on the phone they couldnt fix it either.
    I'm thinking of doing a full "f11" factory restore.  If anyone knows how to fix the color printing problem please let me know.

  • Pavilion DV7 Quick Launch Buttons Problem

    Dear all,
    I have a new laptop Pavilion DV7. It comes with Vista Home Premium.
    After updated to Vista SP2, the sound volume bar pop up on the screen ramdomly ( abnormal stepping up or down with click sound) ( I am not sure have it happen before update? Since, I do not check it detail before ) 
    It happens at irregular time. It annoys me so much. Because it is my new laptop which taken on last Firday (23/10) and find the problem on Saturaday(24/10).
    I have contact with HP technical center. However, it just on holiday and re-open on the coming Tuesday. 
    I am so unhappy and no more to use right now.
    Besides, there are also no respond when I touched another Quick launch buttons.
    Anyone can help ?
    Thanks

    Hello all,
    I would like to report my updated news.
    Since, HP service center did not give me call until the second day after I left my DV7 there.
    Therefore, I phone to them actively.  One guy reply me that they accepted my new dv7 has hardware problem. They will arrange to replace a new one to me (since, my notebook is suffer problem within 7 days after purchased).
    However, the guy has not replied me when I can take the new one. She just told me to wait.
    I'm afraid HP guy told a lie again............. As for my previous post content about my experience ( pointing out wrong decision to choose HP product), HP people is not honest.
    I think it is the HP mission right now : (   and the executives of HP seem to turn a blind eye. 
    Besides, I am still monitoring another threads of this HP forum. And find that the HP product tends to worse. It is not only hardware issue, but also the software driver issue.
    And the interesting thing when I talked with HP technical center people. He already told me their drivers are no problem. He aways said it is Microsoft problem and want to misleading me go to contact Microsoft.
    Alternative, you may find HP's competitor is willing to enhance their product compatibility with Microsoft Windows to become more reliable.

  • Pavilion dv7 2060ez tv turner problem

    Hello,
    I have a HP pavillion dv7-2060ez that I bought in Switzerland years ago, and back then I was able to watch dvb-t without any problems with HP media smart tv.
    I'm now in Greece and media smart tv can't find any digital channels. I've tried with windows media center tv too and it finds many channels but I have no image, just audio.
    What can I do to be able to watch TV as I used to with my pavilion?
    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hi Krimomo. The HP MediaSmart Internet TV service has been terminated. Here is the document that I found regarding this matter.

    As far as Windows Media Center TV is concerned, I am not sure what factors are involved with this issue. Could it be a PAL setting? Do you have additional hardware involved (ie. converter box)?  I would recommend going though this next document thoroughly for the setup.

  • UDMA problem with DVD player

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my new MSI DVD player(model MS-8216M) :it will not work in UDMA mode 2 as it is supposed to in any normal, acceptable configuration. When I connect it as a secondary master or slave it works at multiword2 or PIO and will not go higher. It will only work in UDMA mode 2 if I connect it through my harddrive (but drops back down to PIO after a while)or when it is a Primary slave and my HDD is a Secondary Master (but also goes back to PIO after a while).
    Here's what I have already tried:
    Removing the secondary IDE channel in device manager, reboot and let windows auto-detect. Bought a new IDE cable. Re-installed windows twice since i bought it (Not upgrade).Tried various Master/Slave and IDE combinations (and always changed jumpers correctly).
    Could someone please shed some light on this annoying
    problem? I exchanged this drive twice already so I don't think that the MSI is at fault. Is it my motherboard? Please help.
    Thank you

  • Pavilion dv7 laptop ac adapter problem. It works, but Windows 7 does not recognize it anymore.

    The ac adapter works, and the battery remains at 100%, but the icon never switches from battery to AC.  The laptop will not turn on without the battery and just AC, yet the adapter keeps the battery charged at 100%.  Windows 7 will not perform some of the updates when it thinks it is running on battery.
    Any ideas?

    I am having the same issue with my G61.  I apologize in advance for hi jacking your post and leaving such a long reply but maybe it will help both of us in the long run.
    The problem started off by everyonce in a while my battery icon showing my battery needed replaced.  I ran the battery tool and it said the battery was bad.  I eventually replaced the battery to no avail.  Here is everything that I have done and noted while dealing with this problem.  After replacing the battery the battery tool would not run saying that in order for the test to work the AC adapter needs to be plugged in (computer will only work with the AC adapter plugged in).  If I am using the computer and the adapter happens to come unplugged it almost instantly goes into a permenant sleep and I have to hard reset and plug the adapter back in in order to use the laptop.
    The icon at the bottom of the screen does not show the battery charging.  It only shows the battery in good standing and its current power level.  If I remove the battery it changes to no battery present.
    Some wierd things that are going on are the computer will boot up on battery power alone but as soon as windows is loading at the desktop it will go back into permenant sleep and will have to hard reset.  Also the computer will not power on with the battery removed and the AC adapter plugged in but all my power indicators are lit up showing its getting power.
    I just recently upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and performed all the updates thinking that maybe that would fix the problem.  But it did not.  Although now when I run the battery tool it does not tell me to plug in the AC adapter.  It goes through the process and tell me that everyting is OK and my battery checks out fine.
    One thing that gives me hope that its a software issue is that I have no issue using the battery when running Windows in any version of SAFE MODE.  I can run it till the battery dies without it going into permenant sleep.
    I have read that it could be a motherboard issue but not sure how to verify.  Any help to help us figure this out would be fantabulous.

  • Pavilion dv7 6053er.getting huge lagspikes.

    Hello, ive recently(2 weeks ago) baught this notebook.Got latest bios/latest drivers installed from this website+latest directx.Dont have any programs, exept several games and skype.
    Im getting a lot of lagspikes when im playing(especialy in games with high requirments), or even when im surfing the internet.Though my FPS is alwayes 60+.
    It looks like:
    Every 10-15 secs my screen freezes for 2-3 seconds.And by freezes i mean freezes(cant even move my cursor), not internet lags, especialy consedering im playing offline games.
    I guess you can imagine how annoying it is.
    I tryed system recovery, tryed turning off devices i dont use, switched between both video cards, closed every process exept game, tryed cleaning up cooler device from dust, reduced video effects/resolution to minimum, cleared registry, defragmentated discs+registry.
    And still nothing.
    So could you please offer me any solutions?Or is it just a broken device i have to return back to shop?

    Internet Explorer 9 is one issue. Does not work. What I did was down loaded both Sarfari Browser and Fire Fox Browser. Until Microsoft get their act together and fix the issues. You can remove Internet Explorer 9 and install Internet Explorer 8. Fire Fox works the best. As far as games freezing have you change your computers settings to high performance? Try that. Not all games can be played on the Windows 7 systems and some times the bits make a difference as well.  You can contact the game companies and see if they have updates for the games or new versions that will work on Windows 7 64 bit computers.
