DVD ROM Drive Disabled In Win 7
Mar 25, 2009
When I go to my computer it has a 'BD-ROM Drive' but my DVD-ROM/CD-ROM drive does not appear. I tried putting a CD but nothing happens.
Under device manager I have a CD-ROM drive enabled but below that is 'PBDS DVD+-RW DS-8W1P ATA Device which when I click says this device is disabled (Code 22). I try to click 'enable device' but when I go through the troubleshooting wizard is says windows cannot enable the device.
Can anybody help me? I just want to upgrade my Windows 7 Beta 7022 to 7048 but can't do it without my CD-Rom drive.
I want to get his fixed but if I cant would I be able to upgrade Windows 7 from Vista (I'm running a dual-boot) or will that write over my Vista partition?

I have been having problems with an external hard drive. In an attempt to fix it, I disabled the drive in the "Properties" window. Now, I cannot see it at all, even after a restart. I can't see it in the Device Manager or Disk Management. some way to restore even a view of it?

I have two external USB drives, one independently-powered, one USB-cable-powered, both with NTFS and linux ext2 and ext3 partitions. Under Windows 7 both drives show up under Device Manager with the Property: "A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32)".
None of their partitions show up in "My Computer". (BTW, the partitions are all good and they are all usable from the linux side of my dualboot system.) I probably disabled the guilty service(s) myself. To get Windows 7 to work reasonably, I disabled all the services I thought I wouldn't need.
Which service(s) do I have to look at to get the disks to work again? The powered disk is a Hitachi HTS545016B9A300 and the unpowered one is the internal disk from my previous laptop, a "Seagate Desktop USB Device," both as reported by the Device Manager.

After having re-set my Internet settings (as part of trying to resolve an issue with not being able to load pictures on Facebook), now a message comes up every time I open a new tab in IE9, saying 'Add-ons currently disabled'.

Everytime I open my computer, it is always installing devices. I usually have problem in installing my sound(sometimes my computer detects it as realtek sometimes its high definition audio device) and LAN(realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC #366). Usually repairing my sound device works. (about 70%) How can I solve it permanently? My computer says my LAN is not working but I can still access the internet. What seems to be the problem?

I have a program (written by a community member for this game) that hooks into the game itself, and grabs the onscreen text. Now, the program itself works, but only when UAC is disabled. I can run it as administrator, and approve the changes it makes to the computer, however it still won't work unless the UAC is disabled.Do any of you guys know what the problem is? When UAC is off, the program does not need administrator priviledges. When the UAC's on, when the program starts up it the UAC makes its appearance and asks if you'd like to allow this program to make changes, and i always click "yes." So I don't understand why, even though i allow it to make changes, it still can't do those changes.My friend, the one who showed me it, runs XP and has no problem with it. if you want the link for it, if you need it, i can get you it. It's pretty simple really, just the program and a .DLL file that goes with it.

yesterday i turned off computer and everything was working perfectly. today i turned it on and i cant login to my user account and theres only 1 user (me). my password has 2 @@'s and the ctrl and alt were disabled i think because i also tried using the onscreen keyboard and cant make the symbols either. my keyboard is portuguese and uses alt + ctrl+2 to make these symbols. I CANT LOGIN TO MY COMPUTER! (not this 1).
Remember i already tried the Onscreen keyboard! ctrl and alt doesnt work either

After disbling the UAC the coputer lost network connection. We noticed that the connection was completely missing form the Adapter Settings screen. We also noticed that most of the services are disabled and the ability to enable them is grayed out. We re enabled UAC but no help. This computer previously had the alureo-k root virus.It was working fine for 2 days until we triggered this.

A few days ago I tried connecting a MBlaze modem to my laptop (Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit) to access internet. But it resulted in instant BSOD everytime. I deleted the modem software after that & didn't try to connect it again. But now, whenever I connect using my LAN broadband, connection works fine as long as I am continuously browsing something. But as soon as I stop browsing and it goes in idle mode in about 10-15 minutes, the connection gets disconnected and in the Broadcom Netlink Ethernet properties it shows "No drivers are available for this device". The only solution to this is a forced shutdown & restart, after which it works fine untill not idle. I am not able to download anything because of this. I tried many things like reinstalling the network adapter driver, unchecking the power management feature, resetting the connection, etc. but nothing is working.

Have had this machine over a year, 3 weeks ago, I started getting a random message that my account has been disabled, contact system admin.
Well, that's me! started in safe mode, enabled the administrator account (no password) then tried to login as Administrator....SAME MESSAGE! Rebooted a couple of times, was able to finally login as my user account: GENE (who is an admin as well) Double checked security profile to ensure *something* hadn't set that - nope. I then used the system restore DVD to do a restore anyways...
Things have been fine for about 2 weeks, but then this morning..same thing.
Tried to login as user GENE (an admin account) received the message, your account is locked out and to contact system admin.. After enabling Administrator through safe mode command line, I rebooted into Administrator fine. When I go to the Control Panel, user GENE is not there, however the user profile exists AND the files are there under c:usersgene really really weird
System: Windows 7 Pro, SP1, Alienware, Intel i7 12GB ram, 64bit workstation - no domain

So I got a new desktop computer, and a User account was already set up for me. So when I got it I did some software installing, anti virus, malwarebytes, windows updates. Had to do some restarts for the Windows updates and all is still well.hen added a password to my user account, and had some more Windows updates, although some weren't critical ones, just recommended. The pc needed to restart again, so I restart. Now when I turn on my pc, Windows will load and show a screen that says "Your account has been disabled. Please contact your system administrator." I click Ok underneath it and it goes to a log in screen with two options. First is Administrator. It requires a password. It's not the one I set up. The second option is Other User. That one I can click, type in my user account name and password and that works. So I can get into my computer ok. But I would really like to get rid of that Account has been disabled message and make it so only my User account shows up at the log in screen. I thought about trying a system restore to a time before it started happening. Would that get rid of Windows updates, if that is the cause

Recently I have bought window's 7. I have extracted the file from the CD on a different PC. & i have installed it successfully. & now, I have tested out Linux 10.04 which I have dual booted with Window's 7. But when I have dual booted with a program called "Wubi", It has disable my function for f8 to show the grub menu. I have posted this in the ubuntuforums but they told me to come here. So I am asking, How many I reinstall Window's 7 without a CD-rom? & My bios doesn't show my USB in the boot tab. So what do i do? I was thinking of installing through network.

4 days ago we changed the security settings on our home router/network from WPA2- Personal TKIP+AES to just AES. I then changed my Asus UL80vt-A1 wireless adapter settings (Atheros AR9285) to match (from TKIP to AES).This was the ONLY change I made to the system.Then the fun began.
First off a new adapter appeared in my Network connections. It is Wireless Network Connection 2- Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter. Well, that was not there before I made the changes to the security settings. Googling results indicate it is a normal part of Windows 7, it really had never been there before.Restarting the computer the wireless adapter shows as disabled, and I have to run the network diagnostics to re-enable it. It does not matter if I do a shut down or hibernate (my preferred way of shutting down the laptop before going somewhere).
So I thought I should change the security settings back to what I had (TKIP+AES) and set my notebook to TKIP. I also did a Windows Update just in case. I ran a scan with Avast Antivirus, Microsoft Security Essential and Malware Bytes to see if something evil had gotten in, all were clean.Now when I hibernate my laptop it takes 4-5 minutes to shutdown. When I restart it takes 4-5 minutes to restart. I am staring at the intro screen waiting for the logon to appear. Once I get logged in the wifi adapter appears connected, but the computer is acting like it is hung up until all the open programs have finished loading. I can't do anything until the 27 open tabs in Firefox have completely finished being restored. Takes another 3-4 minutes.

move on my part, especially going into this with no knowledge, but I really needed my IP changed.
This guide told me to disable my local host, so I did just that. I assumed it would still appear in the menu but I guess I was wrong. Windows won't detect that network now, but it does detect that it's disabled. I'm running Ubuntu from a disc and the internet is fine. Am I going to have to call my ISP? It's 3:54 AM right now, so I think it may me a bit too late to do that.

On my dual core laptop, running win 7 x64, I have been tweaking the boot configuration to extend battery life and performance. I changed the advanced boot processor setting from "2" to "1" in the "msconfig" panel. Now the boots are much slower and the battery life is not even positively affected. I cannot change this anymore in the "msconfig"! The option that used to be there, "2", is now gone, and if I uncheck it, it is just as slow as "1".

The built in Administrator account is disabled, there is a user Admin account that was enabled with a password, and one Standard user account that is enabled.While logged into the Standard account, I ran elevated command prompt meaning to run:"net user Administrator active:yes"but instead I had a brain fart and ran:"net user Admin active:no"Now all that is active is the Standard account, which requires Admin's password to perform just about anything. Running in Safe Mode didn't reveal the hidden Administrator account, allow me to run elevated command prompt again, or allow me to log into Admin to fix the problem.

When I attach any USB storage devices to my laptop (eg memory sticks, 1TB Seagate standalone drive, internal drive mounted in external usb chassis) I get a Code 32 error in the properties panel saying the drivers are disabled. All the devices show the following drivers:
c:WindowsSystem32DRIVERSApsx64.sys
c:WindowsSystem32DRIVERSdisk.sys
c:WindowsSystem32DRIVERSDzHDD64.sys
c:WindowsSystem32DRIVERSpartmgr.sys
c:WindowsSystem32DRIVERSsnapman.sys
These all look like pretty standard drivers. A possible item of interest is that I have been pretty aggressive about turning services to manual or disabled at boot to get my computer to run faster. Which driver is disabled and how do I enable it or otherwise fix this?

I'm being so much busy nowadays, running my self-development programs. As they're a lot of programs, the folders and files are accumulative each upon another.My laptop charger is always connected to the laptop. But still, since a couple of days, has 0% power. No progress in charging, and any improper interruption causes a technical damage to the entire work. Even though I save my work minute-by-minute; I forget for awhile. Knowingly that I exhausted every possible solution, with no results.
