View 3 Replies View RelatedSamsung DVD writer [slim external] model no. SE- S084C. OS is win7 starter after connecting the drive through USB port, PnP installs hardware and when i go to "computer" it "sees" the drive (until i insert a disk and close the drawer) when i insert the installation disk that came with my unit, the drive is unable
to read the disk. it just sits there making whirling noises, the green light blinks off and on and the drive icon that normally appears when i open "computer", disappears whenever i close the drive with a disk in it. the drive icon will occassionaly appear briefly and then disappear again. is this a driver/firmware issue or a "win7 does not support " issue.
I have 2 versions of windows; 7 Home Premium and Ultimate ...both are 64 Bit.
I have a Lite-On eSAU108 Black Slim External DVD Burner which works flawlessly on my laptop running windows Ultimate 64Bit. I just built myself a new system and wanted to use my external dvd burner rather than an internal drive
When i plug the burner into my rear usb 2.0 ports on my home premium version of windows 7 i have installed on my desktop it wont even detect the eSAU108 USB burner!
My initial thought is that I have a driver issue. Im fully updated with all my hardware except the motherboard BIOS and windows 7 home premium is fully updated.
I was trying to get my Western Digital Live tv player to access my video files but I think windows wont allow it to view them.I followed the instructions for the live tv player to get the files to be shared but they don't show up in the folder when browsing the files on the live tv player menuit's a known issue a lot of people are having on western digital's forum.[URL]...chapter 6 page 35 is where it shows how to get folders and files to be shared but no one on any windows machine can get it to work.from xp to 7 the folders show up blank(empty) in the browser. however if I turn on media streaming in windows 7 I can access all my files with my media player. even though the instructions says that setting is for connecting the player to other DLNA protocol devices. but that's the only way I can access my stuff on my computer. the instructions suggest we use the "network share" route instead. but no one can get it to work.I was wondering if there is a setting in windows that needs to be adressed other than what western digital's instructions tell us to do.I know it's asking a lot out of you guys/gals if you don't have one or care about it, but I just don't understand windows 7 sharing enough to get it to work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed Windows 7. How do I shut off the feature that asks me to take ownership of every individual folder in my music files from my external drive before I can open them and add them to my media player library? I just want to add them the way I used to in XP or better yet just drag and drop the main folder into media player.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI did a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit from a DVD with no problems. Once Windows 7 booted, Device Manager saw the drive and the proper model number. Says it was working properly. I could even flash the firmware. What I can't do, is eject the tray or see the disc. I can't eject manually or via Windows 7. And Windows 7 doesn't see the Windows 7 Ultimate DVD stuck inside.
I flashed the firmware w/ Vista 64-bit firmware, Vista 64-bit from the previous version, XP, Vista 32-bit...didn't matter.
So I bought a brand new Sony drive people on Newegg had zero problems with in Windows 7. Just installed it and I have the same problem!!!!
Both drives are SATA. I have 2 SATA HDDs as well. The order shouldn't matter with SATA right? Still I changed the DVD drive to be first in the chain, rather than 2nd, but that didn't help either.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe drive will recognize a recorded disc and display and pla ythe contents. If I put in a blank disc, it will pop up the "What do you want to do" window and will start the process by allowing you to choose as USB or Data disc and will allow you to name the disc. The DVD window opens but you can not Drag and drop. Highlighting the files and clicking burn, copy and paste or send to options do not work either. The computer will just ding like it received an incorrect command. I do have a CD/DVD burning software program installed and it works to burn discs. I had not used it before today. This came installed on the system. I have not installed, deleted, downloaded or made any changes to my system. One day the disc burning function in Windows 7 worked and the next day it didn't. I ran the troubleshooter for burning discs and it said everything was fully functional. I prefer the Windows 7 option to running a separate program. I have rebooted and I also tried a rollback to a previous date. Nothing has worked.
The computer is HP and is about 1 yr old. It came with Windows 7 home premium. This is not an upgrade from a different operating system. I am very technical, but this has me stumped.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHas anyone been able to get the VirtualXP environment to see a physical DVD burner as a burner, rather than just a DVD drive?
I've configured the setting to use my physical F: drive which is a LG DVD burner. However any software I have loaded into VirtualXP does not recognize this drive as a burner.
I can put a DVD in the physical drive and access it via the virtual environment. That part works just fine. But no burning capability.
I guess this would be moot if I could get Nero to install on Windows 7/64.

Every time he inserts a DVD movie it doesn't auto play, in windows media player you would usually see the DVD on the side but you see it as storage device icon which you can't play it. The only way to play it is by playing the .vob file on the DVD. I checked device manager and i found the burner is in the disk drive section which is really strange. Any ideas on how solving this?Details: Toshiba Satellite Pro L500
View 4 Replies View RelatedBy mistake, I purchased an Sony IDE DVD burner/writer with no cables from a discount store in Toronto. I can't return the item. I got an IDE to SATA adapter,connected everything and fired up and I get the power to the drive as I can open the DVD drawer, but the machine first gets stuck at the HP splash screen on my HP Compaq dx2300 mini tower, offering me standard options to enter the BIOS setings. If I don't do anything, machine continues to boot into Windows 7 with no further problems because secondary booting device is hard drive right after CD which is primary (as set up in BIOS by HP factory), but you can't use that brand new Sony IDE DVD burner.
How to make the machine recognize it? I set the jumper on the IDE DVD burner to MASTER, but some people on internet say you should remove the jumper completely and let the machine sort it out. Also, in control panel under 'Device Manager' it says I have IDE ATA/ATAPI channels 0 and 1 working properly. To me, it seems also like I have an IDE 40-pin connector on the motherboard.In BIOS however, all I see is 4 SATA ports although if I go into any of them, there is an option to auto-detect IDE hard drives. The only thing is that I don't need IDE hard drive detection, but IDE DVD-RW drive detection. Are there any differences between setting up IDE optical drives versus setting up IDE hard drives. Do I even have to be concerned about BIOS?
