Virtual DVD drive in Explorer glitches when an ISO is ejected

When I eject an ISO mounted in the DVD drive (G:\) automatically created by Windows in File Explorer by right clicking the drive and clicking Eject, the hard drives below it (H & I:\) also disappear from the Explorer pane and the This PC window. This
glitch is very annoying .. how can I fix it? This happened both on my previous install of 8.1 and my current clean install.
I only have MS Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X, browser, and all microsoft updates installed right now. The only 3rd party drivers installed are those for my graphics card, everything else is what comes with windows.
The only workarounds I'm aware of are using 3rd party software (virtual clone drive works perfectly) or reassigning drive letters so that there are no drives after the virtual drive(s) automatically created when mounting an ISO. I would prefer to use Explorer
itself and keep 3rd party software to the minimum and the latter option is not practical for me to apply.
Assistance would be appreciated!

  • SCVMM R2 Hangs on removing vmguest.iso from the virtual DVD drive

    In addition to dealing with the "INCOMPLETE VM CONFIGURATION" (bug)  in SCVMM R2 (which is cleared only with a complete reinstall of the software and database), I have come across a new problem.
    1.  Find a machine with vmguest.iso in the virtual dvd drive.
    2.  Change the drive to "No Media"
    3.  Click "OK"
    SCVMM HANGS.

    Hi Sir,
    Sorry for the delay .
    "SCVMM Hangs " happens on all VMs ?
    Any operation of VM performed in VMM  will case this issue ?
    Did you install newest update rollup for  VMM server ?
    As for this issue , you may try to remove that hyper-v host then re-add it into VMM to check the result .

  • My DVD drive won't open when I click the button

    Hi there
    I'm hoping someone can help me.
    My DVD drive won't open when I click the button.
    I've tried clicking on eject on the DVD Drive icon in My Computers and it comes up with an error message.
    I think I deleted cookies the other day. Could that have anything to do with the problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I really don't want to send my laptop away to a technician.

    Hi
    Try to open the CD/DVD drive manually.
    Near the eject button you will find a small hole.
    You could use a small object like staple and could push it carefully into this hole.
    Usually this should helps to open the drive manually.

  • Dv2915nr cd/dvd drive doesn't recognize when disk in. drive doesnt show up in device manager.

    dv2915nr cd/dvd drive doesn't recognize when disk in. drive doesnt show up in device manager.

    Hi,
    Here's one option you could try as it will give a good indication whether the problem is with Windows or a Hardware issue with the optical drive itself. 
    Create a bootable Ubuntu CD
    The Ubuntu CD you create should run as you boot the notebook ( ie outside of Windows operating system ), so if this will not run, the problem is almost certainly a Hardware issue with the DVD drive
    On another PC, follow the procedure on the link below to create a bootable Ubuntu CD and follow the steps in Part 3 to 'Try it' to see if this OS will run from the CD.  The 'try it' option does not need to install on the Hard Drive, it just runs from the CD.
    http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
    Let me know if this will run.

  • DVD Drive Doesn't Work When in Windows on my Mac

    Hey guys, I have Windows 7 installed on my Late 2011 15" Core i7 MacBook Pro via Boot Camp. For some reason, when I boot into Windows, Windows 7 will not recognize my CD/DVD drive installed on my Mac. I did install all the drivers for this Mac already via the Boot Camp DVD that I burned from the Boot Camp wizard in OS X. Does anybody know how I can fix this? It's really inconvient not to be able to use CD's and DVD's in Windows. The drive works fine when I'm running OS X though.

    Hi JKai
    That should not be happening?
    First eject and disconnect everything and reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    and then Startup reseting the PRAM > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Reconnect your drives and test the DVD drive, then if your still having an issue:
    1. Open Disk Utility and Repair your External HD's
    2. Try chaining the drives in a different order.

  • CD/DVD Drive is Dead - Unable to feed, Unable to Eject

    I believe the symptoms started when I was trying to feed a Costco photo CD or DVD into the iMac, and it would just keep ejecting it out.
    When I try to insert something now, there's no noise, no grabbing of the disc, and no inserting. It's like hitting a wall once it's inserted about half way.
    I am pretty sure there's nothing in the iMac CD/DVD drive right now... but either way, when I hold the Eject button on start up, or when I hold the left click on startup, nothing happens.
    It the motor or the drive dead? How do I diagnose the problem?
    Appreciate the help!

    1) No. Since it won't work in OS 9, either, it is most likely a hardware issue. Apple says to use a straightened paperclip to open the drive manually. I'm not sure that "something sharp" wouldn't damage the drive mechanism, since a straightened paperclip is not sharp.
    2) It's probably going to take a new (or used) drive. You can find one at PowerBook Tech. They also have instructions for replacing it, but it's not an easy thing to do. (You could also maybe find one on eBay.)
    Another set of instructions for replacing the optical drive can be found at iFixit. iFixit also has the drive available for purchase, but it's more expensive there.
    If you don't want the Combo drive, a CD-ROM or DVD drive can probably be had for less money. eBay may have some really good buys from people parting out their iBooks. Look for somebody with a good feedback profile.
    Good luck.

  • Burned a DVD but has bad glitches when I played in DVD player

    Hey-
    I have the rights to the dvd I am trying to burn, I was told to use disc utility to burn a copy and it did burn it but it turned out glitchy like when someone has Dish Network or Direct TV and it rains. The picture is there but freezes and glitches and the sound is kinda there too. What did I do wrong and what do I need to use or do to burn a good copy?
    My friend says they may have sent me a locked copy of my dvd and that I will have to contact the place that made it for me but I would think it wouldn't have burned at all if that was the case and I sure as **** would have had to pay for the right for a locked copy.

    I made a disc image saved it and burn the copy, I followed these directions:
    Insert your DVD into your Mac. Most Macs will automatically launch DVD Player. Once it launches, quit it. You should see your DVD disc mounted on your Desktop.
    Open Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities). Select the DVD disc from the list on the left. You will notice that there are two DVD icons--select the one slightly indented (this is the DVD itself, whereas the first one is the drive).
    Click on "New Image" in the Disk Utility main window.
    Choose a name and a destination from the "Save As..." window. Keep in mind that your destination should have enough space to copy the entire DVD, which can be over four gigs.
    In the "Save As..." window, be sure the "Image Format" selection is set to "DVD/CD Master" and the "Encryption" selection is set to "none". Click Save.
    After copying the DVD to your destination drive, return to Disk Utility. Your new Disk Image will appear in the list on the left of the Disk Utility window. Eject the original DVD disc from your Mac.
    Insert a writable DVD disc into your Mac. Select your newly created Disk Image from the list on the left of the Disk Utility window. Click on "Burn" in the Disk Utility main window. Select your burn speed and whether you would like to Verify Burned Data.
    You will receive confirmation once you DVD is successfully burned and you are all set with a fresh copy of your DVD disc. Simply save your new Disk Image and you can make a copy whenever you may need it.
    When I played it in the DVD player, it loaded and began to play but was distored like when the TV glitches in a storm. You could see that it had attempted to burn correctly but something caused it to not turn out right and the audio was just as messed up.
    I didn't use a great quality disc but my friend burned her iMovie on them just fine. They are 16x so maybe that is my problem, not sure does this help you to know what I am doing wrong???!!

  • My DVD drive is no longer recognized.

    For the past few months my dvd drive would not open when I used the eject disk function. A few times I went into the startup menu and ejected the disk manually. Now the dvd drive is not even recognized by the computer. This dvd drive is the original and my G5 is at least 5-6 years old. Should I replace the dvd drive or is this a software issue?

    Hi birdman1999, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    It is very likely it is gone, I've not had an Optical in the last 8 years that lasted that long myself.
    Does it not show up even in Disk Utility or System Profiler?
    Does it boot off the Install Disc if inserted and holding the c key at bootup?
    Here's some options for replacement...

  • Error message when using the DVD drive

    I have a Satellite P200D and every time I put a disk of any kind into the disk drive I get an NO-DISK error message when I eject the disk. I always make sure that I shut all programs relating to use of the disk before trying to take the disk out. This is a new problem as I have used the laptop for a couple of months without any issues at all. The text of the error message is below. Any pointers would be appreciated. I can live with it but it would be nice not to have to.
    Exception Processing Message 0xc0000013 Parameters 0x764C023C 0x8E4A1B6C 0x764C023C 0x764C023C

    Ok, if you try to eject the disk using the eject button on the side of the laptop, why not try ejecting through software in windows.
    To do this right click on the dvd drive in my computer and then click on "eject". This might tell windows that its ok to let the drive go now.
    Another solution would be to save all important data to another drive, then return the laptop to "out of box condition" using the recovery disc. I'd say problem will go away.
    However, if problems persist, please see your place of purchase for a check up.
    Good luck.

  • Hyper-V 2012 R2 Gen 2 VM failed to boot from SCSI DVD drive using ISO image file

    Hello:
    I'm having a problem trying to install Windows 8.1 Professional on a new Gen 2 VM. I created a new Gen 2 VM using Hyper-V Manager running on Windows Server 2012 R2 and then told it to boot off DVD drive which pionts to the ISO file that I copied to the E:
    drive.  The ISO file mounted in the virtual DVD drive is the Windows 8.1 Professional x64 VL ISO that I downloaded off of TechNet. When I start up the VM to install the OS, I receive this error:
    "Synthetic SCSI Controller (Instance ID 7512B228-F7BC-4DD8-B4F4-72A5B042C2E9): Failed to Power on with Error 'The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.' (0x80070570). (Virtual machine ID 4195A398-3531-4A34-8588-D1FC3F3DD2D4)"
    Basically the SCSI controller can't read the ISO file. However, the IDE controller on a Gen1 VM can read and boot from the ISO just fine. Has anyone else run into this problem? Is there a way to resolve this issue and allow me to boot the ISO from a SCSI
    controller?
    Or is there a bug with the Hyper-V SCSI controller that makes it unable to boot from ISOs properly?
    -JP

    Hi JP,
    In addition , please try  :
    1. copy the ISO to an not shared local folder or drive
    2. uncheck the   "enable secure boot" in VM settings .
    If the issue still persists , maybe you can try to down load a new ISO file then try to boot again .
    Hope it helps

  • My dvd drive won't open so I can insert a disc.  It has opened in the past by pushing the button on my mac

    I can't insert any dvd's because my dvd drive won't open when I push the open key.  It has always worked in the past.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    It's possible there is a CD/DVD in the drive that's stuck. Open Disk Utility in Applications/Utilities. Do you see a CD/DVD in the drive? Try ejecting using unmount.
    If that fails, restart and hold down the mouse button whe restarting.

    Kappy's Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4795807
    Ds store's suggestion:  Reboot the computer holding the option key down, wait for the boot drive options to appear, then press the eject key on the keyboard. When it's out, then select your boot drive and click the arrow key to boot up.

  • My CD/DVD drive will not open

    My CD/DVD drive will not open when I insert any type CD/DVD. The CD/DVD just runs but will not open.

    Try cleaning the lens:
    Use a DVD lens cleaning disk.
    Use a few shots of compressed air in the slot.
    Wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth?) around a business card and gently insert it in the slot.
    If no success, a trip to the genius bar at an Apple store is the best option.
    Ciao.

  • Dv9913cl Notebook not showing DVD drive in system or Device manager, and more

    I recently reinstalled the operating system on my stepfathers Pavillion dv9913cl notebook because it was slow and old. After I reinstalled windows I installed all of the drivers from HP's website, and made sure windows was completly up to date. I checked to make sure things on the computer worked, but I forgot to check the DVD drive.
    So today when he went to put in a DVD it did not work. I was not present when he and my mom first tried using it, but this is what they passed on:
    After putting in a DVD it took a few seconds and then something(I couldn't get them to tell me what) popped up saying something about the DVD region. I couln't get a clear answer on what it told them. My mother said something about it being the wrong region and something about selecting things like US English, and I don't know how what actually popped up for them. I also don't know were this path took them and ended.
    Next apparently my mother went searching online. She found a Ask Yahoo that I couldn't relocate that told her to go into help, about windows media player. Then to go to Organize, then layout and show menu bar. Then step two she wrote down is About Windows Media Player -> tech.supportinfo. Specific File to determin codec. Right click file in Library - Properties on file tab - Audio Codec/Video Codec. (I don't know what she was attempting to do here and couldn't get a straight answer. I think the ask yahoo post told her she couldn't play the type of file because of a missing codec, but I dont think that is the problem, I inlcuded what she did though incase somehow it did something bad)
    She did some other searching and tried to get into device manager I think to see what it said about the DVD device, but I am not 100%.
    **So this is the poiny where I come home. I sit at the computer and pull up device manager.  The DVD device is not listed. I looked at every single entry in device manager, nothing has an exclamation point, and nothing says DVD/CD device or anything close. 
    I went to HP driver website and pulled up the drivers for this laptop. There was not a particular driver there for the DVD player.
    I resarted and went into the BIOS and went to the boot order options. The DVD drive does show up there. (I made no changes)
    When I insert a DVD or CD nothing happens. I can hear the drive spinning, but nothing happens on the OS. nothing pops up. It doesnt show up in my computer, and I can't find the DVD or CD to play through any program.
    I found this support article. https://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060
    I tried all 5 of the resolutions. For resolution 3 I got to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}, but in the right pane there was nothing that said either UpperFilters or LowerFilters. When I did some searching I found some other people who had similar problems and fixed it by doing what is suggested in resolution 3 and deleting the entries for UpperFilters and LowerFilters, but they were never there for me to begin with.
    Now I am at a loss on what to do next. It seems like when he first put the DVD in the computer it was recognizing the DVD since it said something about DVD region it must have known a DVD was in there, but I never saw that screen. By the time I got to the computer nothing happens when I put any DVD or CD in.
    I apologize for the long post, and thank you for any help that can be provided. (Also I don't use Windows, so please try and explain things as layman as possible.)

    Hello RonFishing,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand the computer appears to be unable to play DVDs, and the required driver in Device Manager is not found. My response will not be as long as your post, but I will do what I can to assist you!
    I do not know what Windows operating system you are running. This will be important in resolving the issue. In the meantime, I welcome you to try the steps in this HP document: Resolving DVD and Blu-ray Movie Problems (Windows 7)
    Even though the document is for Windows 7, the steps are similar amongst all versions of Windows. Please try the steps and let me know the results.
    Thanks for choosing the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Noisy CD/DVD drive

    I have a 2009 MacPro, running the latest system etc.
    For quite some time my CD/DVD drive is really noisy when reading discs.
    I called Apple Support, but they wouldn't send me a new drive, since it still reads.
    I'm some 90 miles and a ferry ride from the closest Apple store, so taking it in is a huge hassle and lots of money.
    Although I've had ongoing Bluetooth issues with the machine (over a year) and maybe I'll have to bite it and take the thing in.
    They have sent techs out numorous time to try and solve the Bluetooth, it still isn't right. (it has to be turned 90 degrees to work, so the mouse is in direct 'line of sight' to the rear of the machine).
    Anyway, has anyone else had really noisy drives on these and how did you solve it?

    Did you not do that (as per the instructions in the document on what to do if the UpperFilters entry is missing)?
