HP DVD740 lichtscribe ect...

K I got this burner It reads CD's with out a problem. but will not read any DVD's burnt or store bought. Will not burn either DVD + or DVD - witch this model is to do both, and when it comes to burning CD's I didn't test because I don't care for it. Any help would be great!

My dvd burner sits there and clicks at me when I put a dvd in. Burned, factory made(grand theft auto) and movie/data discs don't work either. Does everything superb with cd's. I've tried everything in the help section and I also looked in the properties and then it just says there aren't any issues. What are the causes of this and how do I fix it???

When I've seen this problem it's been a bad laser. Most burners have separate lasers for the DVD and CD functions, and one of yours has probably malfunctioned. You should be eligible for an RMA if the warranty is still in effect.

Hello i have sony AD-7240S cd/dvd drive it can read all cd/dvds but it cant read my burnt cd/dvds plz give me suggestion

there is something wrong with the format of the files that you burnt. its either the format is not recognized by your dvd player or the format is not supposed to be burnt.try reading every details whenever you're burning a file to a cd/dvd. at the same time, check the specifications of your dvd player and find out the formats that it can read or recognize so that you'd know what format should you burn a file into.

Same problem

Try using a cleaning disc on your drive.

If you can't read store-bought DVD's, or burn on blank DVD's even after the cleaning -
the drive is faulty and must be replaced.

Hope I helped,

Hp dvd740 doesn't read any blank discs..

you're starting to experince laser pick up failure, maybe starting to weakened. Try using a cleaner first and it could be dirty nor with carbon deposits. If still the same then i dont know of any shop repairing DVD drives, it will be up for replacement only.

Can't read some burnt dvds

Try updateing your drivers firmware.
also cleaning the lens with a lens cleaning cd/dvd kit.

if that doesnt solve the problem then the lens system would need to be replaced -> better to buy a new drive.

This ahs to with speed of recording of the CD/DVD try reading CD/DVD burnt at a lower speed like 16x.

Most DVD writers has low maximum reading speed as compared to CD-ROMs.

You can try burning a CD on it and then reading it, if reads then it shows that other cd were burnt at faster speed than it can read.

If it read lower speed CDs then you can just add an additional DVD/CD-ROM just to read faster speed disks.
