SOURCE: cd rom problems
I just replaced the CD drive in my 2200, the eye went out. You can check to see if it's the drive or drivers by uninstalling the drivers from the device manager, then reboot. It will find the drive and reinstall the drivers. If this doesn't fix it, then the drive is bad. The drivers for optical drives are very simlpe, some times they will glitch and need to be reinstalled, but most of the time it's the drive that has gone out.
SOURCE: cd-rom, computer won't load.
You will need to call our technical support line on 0845 20 20 118
SOURCE: cd/dvd rom is not recognized on system. No drive letter or in device manager
If the drive is showing an error (or is missing) in device manager, do the following:
Start Registry Editor (Start, Run and type in regedit then click O.K)
Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Quit Registry Editor.
SOURCE: my cd-rom will not open. What should I do?
It sounds like the drive spring is bad. There's usually a small hole on the drive itself, you can stretch out a paper clip and stick the paper clip in the hole to see if it will release. If it releases, the drive's not picking up on the power being delivered by the system. See if you can swap it with another drive.
