My cd dvd room isnt
Hi,
I am one of the technician trained and experienced with different computer manufacturer.
For your issue here are some helpful steps on how you can isolate the issue.
To check the functionality of the optical drive, try to boot outside windows using a Bootable cd (like OS) to check if your optical drive is working. This will isolate driver and OS issue to hardware issue.
If your optical drive boots up outside windows then the issue is with the software.
- check the device manager if there are bangs in the optical drive (! or ?).
- try to delete the optical drive in the the device manager
- delete the upper and lower filters in the registry
note: before deleting a registry make sure you have it back up.
- restart your computer.
Here are the steps on how you can delete the upper and lower filters in the registry
- click windows logo or start
- choose run
- type regedit
- look for the following folder
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318
-delete the upper and lower filter
- then restart the computer.
Disclaimer: If your not familiar accessing or changing registry file, please contact the manufacturer of the computer as it can damage the operating system.
hope this will help resolving the issue.
Thank you for choosing Fixya

Media player cannot detect burner anymore
Check the Manufacturer's website for a Download of the CD Drive Drivers. If you have a Software recovery application on your computer (Many HP and Dell Computers have this) the drivers may already be on your system, you may just need to re-install them. If re-installing the driver's doesn't work, I don't know what to tell you, unless your drive has gone bad.
