Problem for Pioneer DVR-111D (DVR111DBK) DVD RW Dual Layer Burner

Windows freezes when inserting a cd

When inserting a cd it looks like an attempt is made to read it but windows completely freezes and the only option is to power off. Any ideas?

- I reinstalled the latest driver for this device and all appears to be working. I did this very recently but it must not have installed properly, either that or a newer driver has just been released.

Anyway thanks very much for your help, much appreciated.

I had this happen to me with corrupted CD's, or just old scratched ones.

If it's not specific, but happens with every CD you put in, then try the following-
right click my computer>properties>hardware>device manager>right click on your burner drive>properties>

You'll find a troubleshooting option there, and if you click on the driver tab you can also update the driver or roll back to a former driver.

Let us know it it worked out(use the comment option), if not we'll try figuring something out ;]

Good luck
