I have a pile of CD-R disc's with music, photos, and other files that I burned several years ago. All of them work fine on my husbands desktop, which I believe may be Vista (I cannot remember ), but not on my new laptop. I just bought an HP Pavilion with Windows 7. When I put the discs in, my autoplay options are for a blank disc. I decided to go into My Computer and go into them from there and it is saying there are "702 MB of 702 MB" remaining. In other words, blank discs
Can't play a burned music DVD on new DVD player , but it will play on A Blu-RAY DVD PLAYER-- the disc is DVD-R-I made the disc on ROXIO from mp3's that I ripped from my regular Cd's.
I have a new Asus laptop. When I went to burn recovery discs as advised, the instructions popping up on screen were not clear and I ended up moving the files to the temporary burn folder. Eventually I figured out how to proceed with the real burn and did end up with my recovery discs, however I still have the files in temporary burn and am being notified about them every time I turn on my computer. I'm scared if I remove them I will be deleting the actual recovery files.
I have a toshiba satellite L750 running Windows 7 home premium, when trying to burn anything onto a blank disc I get as far as selecting my items and asking it to burn but it keeps telling me to insert a blank disc (which obviously I have). I have tried several different types of blank disc but it dosnt seem to recognise any of them.
I format a write-once disc (UDF format) but it write something to it (about 137 MB) so when i try to create a system repair disc it says 'disk is not blank- erase disc', but as it is a DVD+R i cannnot erase anything on it.What does Windows write to the Disk?
I'm currently in the process of buying a new laptop and one of the ways that I can save money on it is by getting it without an OS installed onto it.. I'm able to get windows 7 off of MSDN for free because my university has some sort of partnership with them or something, but obviously this is just a download and not a disc.
Therefore I was wondering if it is possible (and how is it possible) to install an OS onto an internal blank HDD without having a disc (i haven't downloaded it yet but i'm guessing you download it as a zip or maybe .iso and they send you a key as this is how it worked for other software I've got off of them)
I have Dell computer with HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GSA-H73N SCSI CdRom Device...never had a problem with it now all of a sudden it wont recognize a blank disc...it will play a dvd movie with no problem...I uninstalled and then reinstalled the drivers which did nothing...also uninstalled the drive completely which didnt help either
I have an HP Probook 4525s, running Windows 7, with a DVD-RW drive. I attempted to open a burned CD-R that had photos on it, but when I stuck the disc in, and attempted to open it, it said it was a blank disc. I was able to open the disc on another computer just fine. I was wondering why I wasn't able to open it on mine.
At first I burned an audio CD by dragging mp3 files into the writer. Then discovered that the order was not what I wanted, by track number, but was alphabetical by title. Looking at the File arrangement setting I discovered it was indeed set to [artist]-[title].So I changed it to [track] and then burned another CD. But it ordered them by title again. Next, I cleared the mp3 files from CD writer and dragged them back again thinking this must be done after setting the file arrangement.But upon burning the CD, it still was alphabetically ordered by title.I checked the docs and didn't see any reference to File arrangement.
I'm not normally this noob-tastic, but the world of laptops is relatively new for me. I want to do a clean reinstall of Win7 x64 on my Vaio, and I'm not sure how to go about it. I have 4 system image discs and a system recovery discs that I burned immediately after booting the machine up for the first time about a year ago.What I want to do is format the drive and use whichever discs I'm supposed to use to reinstall the OS. Is that the right way to do it with a laptop? Which discs am I supposed to use to reinstall?
im using windows 7 dvd maker im trying to burn a dvd after its burned it plays on the computer but if i put the dvd in a dvd player it freezes after 10 minutes i tried turning the filters off im not sure what to do?
I've read all the treads explaining how to delete files waiting to be burned to CD, but my problem is that the folder for these files is empty. Not only that, but the message says that they are waiting to be burned to a CD/DVD reader, not a burner. I suspect that I'll have to edit the registry.
I'm in the process of calibrating my subwoofer and want to make a CD audio disc of bass frequencies from this site [URL]. The download contains many MP3 files. I burned the files to a CD and the CD plays on my computer but doesn't play on my Panasonic BD-85. I really don't understand what's happening as I have burned music on a CD and that plays on the BD-85.
#1 - - - My 10 key button area isn't operational & the "NUM LOCK" button doesn't seem to help.
#2 - - - I have a password & a fingerprint reader that I can use either way, to access my PC. Quite recently, I burned all five of my R hand digits used to ID myself to the machine. How would I delete these fingerprints & replace them with all five of my L hand fingers?
I have created a slideshow in Microsoft media however when I burn it to a DVD the music and the pictures no longer are in sync. It appears that the pictures move faster off of the DVD than they do when created in media. This is the case whether played on a DVD player or a computer however when played in media it works perfectly.
I burned a couple of files with Nero on my Windows 7 32bit computer and they do not show up on the disk when I reinsert it and look for the files. If I restart the PC then they show up. I burned the same files with CDBurnerXP and they show up fine the first time.
I have a problem with my DVD Room, HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GSA-H55N ATA Device. It won't read blank CD's/I can't burn on blank CD's nothing, but on DVD i can.
I wanted to make a new partition on my hp laptop on the only disc it as.Unfortunately,because it came with already 4 partitions I accidentally turned the disk into a dynamic disk.Now its booting normally but I cant load the system Image that I have created before the partition.Other than that the pc is running smoothly.As I said this is the only disk on the system.Is it possible to convert the disk back to basic?After a lot of googling I found some exmples but all of them assumed you had a second disk on your system.Is it possible to convert the disk back to basic without having to reinstall windows?(I have no windows cd
So I have an bit of an odd and I think unique problem (as many searches came up with no solutions). Simply put, my boot manager is missing, but only when my windows install disc is not in the disc drive. It started several months ago and I just left it be, let the disc it int he disc drive and it was not that big of a deal. But just did a clean install couple days ago I re-installed windows 7 ultimate 64-bit on my computer (using an upgrade disc if that makes a difference).I formatted the drive with what I guess is a quick format (the option the install disc gives you). I have tried doing a repair with the install disc but no problems are found every time I try.
Is there any way to use a windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade disc as a installation disc? Or would I have to go out and get another Windows installation disc and then use the upgrade disc?
I would assume this problem has come up a number of times but I can't seem to find the exact topic. I just got a new desktop, an Acer Aspire AM3910-U4012
OS : Windows 7 Proc: 3.2GHz - dual core Cache : 4MB RAM: 6GB DDR3 1333MHz (2x2gb, 2x1gb) HD: 1TB Graphics Card: Intel HD Graphics Power Supply : 300W Motherboard: Intel H57
I plan on adding a new video card, and most likely will also have to up the power supply if I do so.
The issue I am having is the computer is only running 4G of RAM. I ran DXDiag and it recognizes the 6G but for some reason I am not getting 100% of my RAM.
I bough a new laptop 2 weeks ago (Asus with windows 7) and decide it was the time to install Microsoft office today, what a surprise the CD drive can't read anything...I've tried CD, DVD and Blue ray nothing work!Basically, when I click on the DVD RW drive it open the DVD reader and said <please insert disc into drive>. Then, it start reading for 2 seconds, stop before opening anything and bring me back the same error <please insert disc into drive> like if there was nothing in the drive. I think the drive itself is functional it is only a reading issue. I found some tips but nothing work for me
When I turned it on, first I see is it's not starting the programs that display in the right side.The audio says it's not running and it displays the icon with an "x" on it. It also display the safely remove hardware and my antivirus. The internet icon won't show up. The Action Center won't start either. When I try to go to setting up a network it just says it's not "detecting any network hardware". I went to device manager and everything is there and apparently working properly. How can I fix this?
