HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20L ATA Device for HP Pavilio... (by 9 users)
The make and model of my pc is HP Pavilion dv6704nr Entertainment Notebook PC and I used it for barely 30 days and it developed a problem with the optical device. Its unfortunate the manufacturers themselves haven't been helpful at all as they've provided a lot of suggestions to the problem. I wish I could return to US but is unfortunate am in Ghana. Can anyone be of help since my Notebook PC is not worth its value any more. A few friends who use the same model are complaining the same problem as the computer cannot detect the DVD drive at all despite the fact that it talks about the error as 'Code 10'.

HP dv6599el - trying to create recovery CD's the system lost contact with the unit. no more cd's - hp accept only one creation, no security on writing with any program. Shame!

I have the Same problem HP Pavillion dv 9000, My Cd drive stoped working and the Cd drive icon is gone from the Computer Window. I have tried system Restore but when ever i shut down or restart it happens again.
Try updating the drivers again. If all fails, Try a system restore by pressing f10.
