CD ROM DRIVE Is Not Showing Up In Computer
May 4, 2011
I am using Windows 7 enterprise modified like windows 8 and my CD ROM DRIVE is not showing up in my computer. My cd boots when starting up but not showing on my computer. I have went into cmd prompt > regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control > Class > {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}(CD ROM CLASS) and there was no uperclass filter or lowerclass filter available so I could delete them.I will be really happy if you could tell me anything else I could try to get my CD ROM DRIVE back.

I'm new to Windows 7 (Ultimate) and like to have a machine that runs nice and fast with no unessential items running in the background. Last night I did a bit of tweaking (mostly in gpedit.msc) and went a step too far, but I'm not sure which step I need to undo and haven't been able to find a solution in a 4 hour google session.When I click on My Computer, the cupboard is bare.I have a 500gb drive partitioned into C: and D: and a DVD drive E:The right pane is empty, and when I plug in a USB drive it doesn't show either. When I click on libraries, I can manually enter C: or D: in the address bar but it's a bit inconvenient. I usually use Total Commander rather than Windows explorer, but it's been difficult to set up my downloads location etc as they don't appear in the available options. In device manager the disk is showing.

I just noticed it today, but there is an extra drive in the My Computer window, I use TrueCrypt as well as a hot swap bay for a SATA drive.When I try to open it, the drive says Not accessible, Access is Denied. Disk manager and Disk Part all only show my 5 physical drives that are indeed there.How can I get rid of this extra drive?

In Windows 7 Explorer, the Computer icon is not showing in the left pane--neither in the default view or the 'show all folders' view.
You can see from the screen captures that I have Explorer set to open to Computer, but no Computer in left pane, and no drives are accessible directly through Explorer.
The drives are fine (from using alternate Explorer alternatives).
How can I get the Computer icon back in the left pane?

I have a Samsung R519 laptop, after installing windows 7 the dvd drive is not working. It is not shown in the device manager. Sometimes after a reboot it does appear in the device manager and I have tried to do the repair as stated on other forums, (remove upper and lower filters), but on all occasions there has been no upper or lower filters shown in the right hand panel. I know it is connected ok as I re-installed Vista and now have both OS and the dvd drive works ok in Vista.

I've got a WD My Book 1110 external hard drive, originally for Mac. My Mac died and so I got a Windows 7 machine. I extracted all the data, reformatted the two partitions I had on the drive, and moved the data back onto it. The partitions showed up with letters, all was fine, until I restarted my machine. Now I can't access the drive. It shows up in Disk Management, lists the properties, but the drives aren't assigned letters, they don't show up in Explorer, and Disk Management says the partitions are 100% free. Also in Disk Management, when I right click on the volume, all options are greyed out except Delete. Taking some clues from the internet, I've already tried uninstalling the drivers (it says they're up to date, and said it reinstalled them fine, and that the drive was ready to use, except it still doesn't show up.)

I did a clean install of windows 7 ultimate 64 bit and everything seems to be fine except that in windows explorer it is showing an extra CD-Rom drive that I don't have.
i tried uninstalling both of my dvd burners (1 ide & 1 sata) and that didn't solve anything.
the drive doesn't show up in computer management/storage/disk management.
i guess this isn't really hurting anything but it is very weird and i'd like to get rid of it as it is rather confusing.

I have two SATA harddrives 0 and 1. I had Vista on firsst partition on 1 dual booting with XP on 0. When I came to load W7 it did not see drive 1 so I ended up booting it on a partition on drive 0. It is still a dual boot installation.
The problem is that W7 still does not see drive 1 (visible in XP and previously Vista)
It is not visible in computer management or elsewhere. The drive has 3 primary partitions none of which are logical.

I am running a Packard Bell desktop,model BV ixtremeX9610 with Win7 home premium. A couple of times I have fired it up and the displayed time in the task bar has been wrong. Also have a clock widget on the desktop page which is about 5 hours out. Emails have time stamps which are way out. This sounds like a CMOS battery problem to me, but when I asked a 'Tech guy' from Packard Bell and enquired which battery type I need he assured me that the machine didn't have one! I have reset the clock using the bios - but the widget clock is still wrong.Time zones checked, OK. Must admit, haven't actually checked motherboard yet, but feel sure there MUST be a CMOS battery there.

My computer is getting really hot lately (CPU can get to 96C/~200F), and I have some weird bugs as well. I have an HP pavilion laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate.
Some of the bugs are when SOMETIME I'm trying to delete a big file, it says "discovering..." but doesn't delete anything. When I open certain folders the green bar at the top just keeps on loading and loading even after all the previews of pictures/videos are done. Sometimes it doesn't even show the previews of some pictures/videos (and it did show without a problem in the past). It also happened to me that I opened the control panel, and I couldn't see anything (usually when the temp are really high and the fan is on max). After restarting my computer everything turned back to normal, but then it happens again...
For an antivirus I'm using Microsoft Security Essentials and for anti-malware I'm using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.

I bought a 1TB WD HDD a week ago. I copied a bunch of movies in but when I got home and tried to watch the movies in my laptop, the drive is not showing under my computer. I went into computer management and under Disk Management I saw my passport under Disk 1, Disk 0 is showing as my Drive C. I tried to change the drive letter coz I was thinking that was the problem, but it will not allow me to change the drive letter.

My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate. When I go to Start, Computer, to view my internal and external hdd's I see that my WD 1 TB is in the red even though there is 76,3 GB of free space; My Book 2TB is in the red even though there is 23,3 GB of free space. To me that is a LOT of free space on each of these two external hdd's. My question is, with so much available free space of each hdd why are they pictured in the red? I could understand if I had only a few gig's of free space but 76 and 23 GB? My guest is that Windows uses a red color whenever a certain percentage of the hdd is used but I am not sure.

Since my new comp has been built, about a month ago, every now and then when I power up the computer it fails to display anything on my monitor. I look into the case and see that the red VGA LED is lit up on the motherboard. Whenever this happens, I take my GPU out and reinsert it, close up the case, power up and it works again.
Motherboard is Asus P8P67 Pro B3 Rev
GPU is Gigabyte Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 SO

I have a Windows 7 machine that stops recognizing the installed printers after printing a couple of files. If you reboot the machine, it will recognize the installed printers, but then stops seeing them after trying to print again.
