MY LAPTOP CD/DVD DRIVE DOESN'T WORK




By omnipotent1 on Aug 22, 2008

" "
MY CD/DVD DRIVE IN MY COMPAQ PRESARIO V2000 laptop stopped working. When I ran a system hardware check it didn't recognize the cd/dvd drive was on. i have tried installing drivers, but it didn't work either. So I am clueless at this point. I'm hoping you could give me other options to try to resolve my problem...

check the registry

click start > run > type regedit > click ok.

In Registry Editor, expand the following registry path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class

Under Class, click {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}.
In the right pane, look for UpperFilters and LowerFilters, right click each of them and then click Delete. (If you only see one then that's fine).

NOTE: Make sure not to delete anything else or else your system will not boot to windows.

After deleting upprer and lower filters, exit from the registry editor and restart your system.

Check if your cd/dvd drive is working.

- Update the firmware of your cd/dvd drive. You can get the firmware from the compaq's website.
