I do have HP Pavilion dv7-1133cl after uisng Windows Recovery my Windows Vista does not want to recognize DVD drive.

This is usually caused by a known software issue and happens across the board will all computer manufacturers due to a conflict with media burning/ripping applications...
You can either run this file , go online to Microsoft's site for a fix, or manually fix it by following the instructions below:
Manually delete the registry entries

  • Satellite A100 does not recognize new CD/DVD drive

    I purchased a new CD/DVD drive for my four year old Toshiba Satellite A-100 as the old one went crazy and did not want to work.
    Unfortunately I bought a Toshiba Portege A100 DVD/ CD-RW Combo Drive which is not exactly what I had before hopping that it will work anyway.
    Unfortunately I got surprised because it does not recognize the CD/DVD drive at all :/..
    It seems to work and the light is flashing so I believe that it is not broken.
    I just plugged it in as that's the way I was told to do it.
    Do I have to download drivers to make it run?
    Will it work on my laptop or is it a "newer" CD drive which will not cooperate with my laptop?
    I would appreciate any help. Thx

    Hi
    I think I agree with Jimi. For me it sounds like that your CD/DVD drive isnt compatible with the notebook. Note: Not all drives are compatible to all notebooks.
    Normally the best option would be if you check the user manual before you buy a CD/DVD drive. On the first pages you can find a list of compatibles drives they were pretested from Toshiba in this notebook. So these drives should definitively work.
    Alternative you can contact the ASP as Jimi said. They also sell compatible drives.
    And by the way, here you can search for the nearest ASP:

  • Portege M400: Vista does not see the CD/DVD drive

    Hi
    I have upgraded my M400 to Vista and now it seems I have a problem with the driver for my DVD drive.
    I don't see a vista driver for the DVD drive.
    Any ideas?
    Steve

    >OK ... so any idea why Vista would say that the driver is invalid?
    Possibly because of the registry problem
    Try this;
    Enter the device manager and remove the drive from the system.
    Then reboot the notebook. The Vista OS should initial and install the new device (CD/DVD drive) again.
    Then go to the registry and remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
    Then reboot the notebook again.
    Hopefully it helps!

  • HT1338 my dvd drive does not want to read, it sound as like it wants to work

    need help to fix my dvd drive, it does not wants to read any disk, it sounds like it wants to start but it won read them

    Hi
    Four thoughts
    • Brand and type of DVD/CD Media
    • Burn Speed ?
    • Ever used a Cleaning DVD ?
    • Free space on Main Start-Up Hard Disk ?
    Brand and type of DVD/CD Media: MATTERS
    - Memorex, NoName and other Cheap brands - most probably works for other things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO.
    I only use Verbatim
    - DVD-RW - usually do not work OK but with various kinds of problems. DVD+R is a more modern sort and use to give problems on older DVD-players
    I only use DVD-R
    Burn Speed (in iDVD or alike): Matters
    • Best or Max - is not best
    I set it down to x2 or x4 Max
    Ever used a Cleaning DVD ?
    I use one WITHOUT Liquid but with brushes from time to time
    Free space on Main Start-Up Hard Disk ?
    - Due to that Mac OS X - is UNIX - it behaves likewise. It needs lot's of space on Boot / Start-Up Hard Disk for it's and the applications temp files.
    I never go less than 25GB free space - If HD-Video material is used then 4-5 times more is a good thing.

  • ITunes Will Not Recognize My CD/DVD Drive In My Windows Vista PC.

    All,
    I was forced to migrate to a new PC for work. It is running Windows Vista Enterprise. Since receiving the PC, iTunes will not recognize my CD/DVD Drive. I receive the following error message:
    "Warning, The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's and DVD's are missing....." etc.
    I have completed the following troubleshooting steps with no success:
    1. Deleted upper and lower filters in the registry per the Microsoft fix from their web site.
    2. Completely uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes/Quicktime/Etc.
    3. Uninstalled and reinstalled the CD/DVD Drive
    4. Verified that other programs recognize and can burn to my CD/DVD drive. I have Windows Media Player and Roxio Creator Basic installed.
    5. Verified that Windows Vista recognizes my CD/DVD drive.
    6. Installed the GEAR driver recommended on the Apple Support page for this issue.
    All of my music in is iTunes and I prefer to burn my CD's via iTunes. I have read that several people are having this issue.
    Does anyone have a solution? There has to be a fix out there somewhere.
    I can downgrade to XP but it will take an "Act Of Congress" for my corporate IT group to send me the XP downgrade CD.
    Any solutions or recommendations are great appreciated.

  • Tecra M5: DVD drive does not read these mini DVDs

    I have canon dvd handycam, and mini dvd works on it. One month back i recorded movie and pictures on mini dvd using handycam and ran mini dvd on my tecra M5 dvd drive, it worked very fine.
    Now after 1 month i have 5 mini dvds with movies and pictures which i took on 1 month vacation in diffierent countries, i tried my best but tecra dvd drive does not read these mini dvd, cd drive label appears instead dvd drive when i put mini dvd in it.
    All other standard size dvds, cds working fine on it.Its complicated and as well as irritating.
    Any suggestions?
    Why its messedup?

    Seems the lens cannot read this miniDVDs. Possibly the drive lens cannot calibrate and therefore the miniDVDs are nonreadable.
    Try the solution from sascha. Maybe youre a lucky man and it works.
    If not, try to remove the drive physically from the notebook. Reboot the notebook without the drive. The Windows and BIOS shouldnt recognize the drive.
    Then shuts down again, put the drive into the notebook and boot up the unit.
    The notebook should recognize the drive and should indicate the firmware again.
    Im not sure if this will help you but its attemptable

  • Re: CD/DVD drive does not seem to start DVDs in Satellite P750

    My CD/DVD drive does not seem to start DVDs, it would turn and turn and the only way I can start a DVD (i.e. a movie) is by using Windows Media Centre, while software to be installed needs to be activated from Windows Explorer.
    Anybody?
    Please help.
    Thanks!

    Thanks, Xaver, tried this, still won't autoplay, it will just turn the dvd around for a while and then stop. Though when I open Windows Medi Centre and choos 'play DVD', it does the trick. The only way to install software, though si through Windows Exp[lorer and searching relevant file. Cheers,
    Havoc.

  • Want to upgrade to lastest version - help/about Firefox window does not show "upgrade" as in instructions.

    I want to upgrade to latest version but -Help/About Firefox- window does not show "upgrade" as in the instructions. I cannot find an "upgrade" function anywhere else. How do I upgrade? The version I have is -18.0.1- it came with this used computer.
    I believe this computer was hacked. Word started doing very strange things. We wiped the hard drive and reloaded everything as it was originally when I bought it. I am now getting hacked online.
    They originally got into one of my credit cards last fall. That is when this all started. They got my AOL email address. They also got the credit card current balance, minimum payment, due date and then even the payment amount. They got into my Barnes & Noble account and now checkout does not work. Now I believe they have gotten into my AOL account - one thing after another has started going wrong. I cannot change that AOL user id/email address since it is the master and I would lose about 15 years of "stuff".
    The folks that sold me this computer told me to use a free version of an antivirus. I am very unhappy with it. I never had ANY trouble when I used TrendMicro's expense products. Those folks also told me to use Firefox, since AOL uses Internet Explorer - which I already knew is like Swiss cheese.
    Now, I cannot seem to get an upgrade of Firefox. Is this also a hack?
    Please help any way you can. Thank you for your time.

    It's probably just the Firefox updater having some problems. go to www.getfirefox.com and download Firefox 20.0.1

  • IPhone 4S does not get detected in Windows 7

    iPhone 4S does not get detected in Windows 7
    When I connect my iPhone 4S to my computer, iTunes does not detect it. iPhone pops the message of USB connectivity and defaults to Mass Storage. Windows shows the message that "Device is ready to use" and I can read both drives of the iPhone in Windows Explorer. However iTunes does not detect the device and the "Devices" tab does not appear. I have tried Restarting the phone. Restarting the computer. Connecting the phone to a different computer. (I'm on version 4.3.3 (8J2), firmware 01.59.00 and iTunes 10.5.3.3).

    First make sure you usb drivers are up to date
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/windows-vista/Tips-for-solving-problems-with- USB-devices
    Try a hard reset on your iPhone, press the power/sleep & home button at the same time until the apple logo appears (ignore the slide to turn off prompt). Once the apple logo appears release the buttons and wait for your iPhone to boot back up then try connecting. Also try a different USB cable if you have one available.

  • Windows does not recognize driver for pci-4461

    Hello,I am currently running windows xp with labview 7.0 on my computer.  Recently trying purchased and trying to install PCI-4461 Audio Analyzer PC card.  I downloaded the latest driver 9.0.2 off the NI website.  After the install I verified the driver exist by using the Measurement & Automation tool.  However, window does not recognize any driver for the hardware. When I point it to the directory where the driver is "suppose" to exist, windows gives me an error message saying that the driver does not exist or is corrupted.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. Has anyone ran into this problem and can give me some advise?  I know that the version on DAQmx 9.0.2 is not compatible with the version of labView I am running.  However it should not affect windows from locating and installing hardware. Thank you,Ruth

    Hi Ruth,
    Did you install the PCI-4461 card in your computer before or after you installed the DAQmx 9.0.2 drivers? It would be best to install the drivers first and then the card.  Windows XP will pop up the New Hardware Wizard, saying it detected new hardware.  Click Next, and then to Search for Drivers Automatically.  Do not try to navigate  and select the appropriate driver folder.  As long as the drivers are installed correctly Windows will be able to find the correct driver automatically.
    You can also remove the PCI-4461 card and try it in a different PCI slot.  This will cause the new hardware wizzard to appear on the next restart.

  • My disk drive does not play any original dvd or cd anymore, but the copies work fine, no matter which format. Do I need a new disk drive?

    Hello All,
    since last week my disk drive does not play any original DVD or CD anymore, but copied ones, no matter which format work fine. I am a bit confused that the copied ones still work.
    Anybody experienced the same? Will I have to get a new disk drive? Unfortunately the warranty expired last month
    Looking forward to your answers and thanks,
