Pioneer DVR-215 DVD Drive Not Useable On New W7 Install
Feb 23, 2009
Hoping someone can help here.... running Beta 7000 on a Quadcore Q9450 with 4GB of RAM. The DVD drive is a Pioneer DVR-215 but Windows 7 will not show it in Explorer and I can't access it at all. Device manager shows the yellow warning and says this:
"Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)"
I've tried uninstalling the driver and letting Windows 7 reinstall it but it always installs the same one and says it's running the correct driver – yet it still won't let me use the drive.... anyone got any idea what I need to do to fix this?
I've search for this but not seen anyone with this exact problem (i.e: where Windows 7 reinstalls the same driver but still won't allow use of the device.)

I've got 2 partitions, C drive being for the OS and D drive having my programs installed. I reinstalled Windows over the top the C drive with the impression that everything on my C drive would be wiped and replaced with the new system, and all the stuff on the D drive would be untouched (i.e. music, documents and program install files). The other day I upgraded from 32 bit to 64 bit Windows 7 however now on the Add/Remove programs list no programs appear, yet I can still use some of them. For example I can use Steam by running the .exe in the install folder but doesn't appear on Add/Remove, and for example Itunes doesn't work at all using the same idea. Basically, have I screwed up my PC and the partitions from upgrading, a bad install or should I just reinstall all the programs from scratch?

How can I find a useable .png or .gif file of the Windows logo? I want to use it in another file that displays it on a web site. The ones I found are all protected and permissions cannot be changed.

I'm having a problem with my pioneer dvr-s19lbk with windows 7 ultimate 32bit.The drive shows up fine in my bios, but windows 7 has a problem with it. In my computer it shows up as dvd-rw, but in device manager it shows as a cd-rom. When i put a disk in the drive the autoplay comes up as normal, but when insert a blank disk nothing happens, no autoplay. For some reason its not seeing any blank media and i am unable to burn any disks, even though nero shows the drive with its full model number and firmware version.However many times i try to update the driver i just get the same message : (Windows had deternimed the driver software for your device is up to date).I have searched online and have found the latest firmware from pioneer, but as my drive is the latest model it already has this version and there does not seem to be any driver for this device even though it says on the box that its compatible with Windows 7 and i don't understand why its not working.

I have a Pioneer BDC-207DBK BD-ROM drive and I cannot play Blu Rays. I have bought Roxio CinePlayer and downloaded a trial version of PowerDVD and neither of them will play the disc. Windows recognises the disc but when I double click it in My Computerit doesnt play it and I can only view the files on the disc

Check my Hardware specs for full information
Current setup:
C: Boot, Corsair SSD
D: Files, samsung HDD
D:/boot files/user/(all user account directories moved here, when possible) I'm wondering if it's possible to install games such as Assasins' Creed or Skrym, but install all game data to this folder?D:/boot files/programs/* Many installers allow you to define a custom installation path, But I am unsure if these games would ask for one or force me to install to the default directory?

I have tried numerous times on my PC to install Windows 7 onto my Sata Drive to no avail. Yet as soon as I plug in my IDE HD it installs fine.I have unplugged all external peripherals USB and internal Card Reader. Set my Bios ok as it sees both the Hard Drive and DVD fine (Both in the bios and during selection of hard drive during windows 7 installation). Yet when I come to install it, it craps out at a random percentage saying cannot read from source or worse yet it crawls so slow through the percentages (I really don't think Windows 7 should take 6 hours to get to 15%!!) Yet both the hard drive and dvd are fine and the disc works great on my other PC without the sata drive in.
My motherboard is a Biostar G31-M7 TE with latest bios now what is odd is that I recently updated the BIOS to the latest one so does my problem come from here or was it always going to be a problem on this board? Also when I do have Windows 7 installed on the IDE drive when I plug in ther sata drive inside the whole system goes belly up (from freezes when transferring large files to just not seeing the drive)

I have a new copy of windows y 64 bit ultimate. I currently use w7 64 home premium and it is on C drive and the drive is a sata 2 drive. But when I build my new system I want to install onto a new drive which is sata 6.0 and I have made a partition on that drive (letter M) for the O/S to be installed onto ( ive allowed 150Gb ).
So my question is when I build my system and am ready to install w7 can I install onto drive M on the new sata 6.0 drive?
I will unplug the old boot drive as I understand windows will boot to that if I dont unplug it, then when I have installed new O/S on the new drive, partition "M", I will plug it back in and format the old boot drive.
So then windows will boot to drive/partition M, if that works, and C drive will just become a data drive. I understand I probably will have to do some messing in bios, so any help with that will be good.
this will be my 1st build but I am not to bad with computers and have changed cpu's/HD's/gpu's/fans etc etc. but not mobo's and cases. And never changed a O/S onto another drive with a different boot drive letter.

I should have come here first, but for several weeks, I started having serious crashing, freezing, then the dreaded BSOD on my upgraded Windows 7 PC.
Finally it wouldn't even boot back in Windows 7. I could not find my Upgrade Disk or Repair Disk at the time, but I had a Ubuntu Disk. So I foolhardy installed Ubuntu on a 2nd HDD in my system, think I would be able to fix Windows 7 later.
Now I've found the Windows 7 (upgrade) disks. But I can't repair Windows 7 nor can't figure out how to re-install, it doesn't give me that option, that I can find. I've removed the Ubuntu drive, but Grub is still installed.
I would like to do a clean install (since I have already backed up my important files using Ubuntu). Will following this: SSD / HDD : Optimize for Windows Reinstallation do the trick?
Once I get it re-installed, and if it crashes again, I'll do the memtest and other troubleshooting found here.

I have seen questions about installing from a USB reader.
What I would like to do is install Win 7 on a USB HDD. I have seen nothing on this that was helpful.
I have a basic case and 2gb of memory, usb reader and 600gb. It sees the usb HDD and Windows 7 boots from the usb reader. It looks good until it gets ready to install then I get this statement "Windows 7 can not be installed on this drive".
I then click on more info and get "Windows 7 can not be installed on drive 2. Then gives several possible causes."
None of the causes are valid.

my C is failing. luckily i have a D drive. which is running now. i have a brand new internal HDD coming tomorrow along with a HDD USB dock. now what i was going to do is remove both C and D drives, put the new one in and install 7 on there and have it as my main drive. is it possible to just install OS onto a drive like that? or should i leave D in and replace C and install it via D and follow up by reformatting my D drive?

Is it possible to keep the C drive free of all applications? I mean, I installed Skype and there seems to be no way to keep it off the C drive since there was never any option to install it anywhere else. I installed another program, on another drive in the computer, and while MOST of it went there, you could see some files going to the C drive. This is an issue for me since I have a small 64GB SSD and I do not want it cluttered up with app files in the event I need to reload Windows.

After 3+ years of file accumulation & XP on my C drive - its time obviously to upgrade BOTH. I have not read anywhere what appears to me to be a very simple approach -> installing W7 onto a new hard drive. My plan is to remove my existing C drive; install a new OEM WD640 HD; boot from W7 disk; format; partition; and then proceed with W7 installation steps. After completion and verifying all is working property, shut down the system; reinstall old C drive back into my system and treat it as a "data" drive. Will W7 have any problems accessing these older files from my old C drive - other than permission issues" ?

How does one install a new program (Windows 7 64-bit) on the D drive? Dell formatted the hard drive with a C and D partition, though by default everything goes to C. C is almost full, and D drive is in fact the larger of the two partitions. How does one install new programs to the D drive so as to not have C fill up?? I have Windows 7 64-bit, so doe I need two program folders on the D drive?? That is, one called "Program Files" and the other called "Programs Files (x86)"???
How do I make those folders on D?? On C Drive the folders in which programs are installed have SPECIAL permissions!!! Dell tech support will not answer this even though Dell sold me the laptop with two partitions of the hard drive. NO clue why Dell does that. Under Windows 7, the D drive is not labelled a Recovery Drive, and it is a bigger partition than the C Drive.

Installs from a flash drive tend to take about 75% of the time it takes with a DVD. On my C2Q Q6600 it meant 20 mins instead of 29.This is for those who are having issues with running from a DVD, or just want to try it out/get it done faster.Back up the files from your USB drive, as it WILL get formatted in this process and all data on it will be lost!
1. Get a USB Drive, it must be at least 4 GB.
2. Plug the drive into your PC.
3. Open a command prompt as administrator. (Right click, Open as Admin, or Ctrl+Shift+ Click)
4. Get the drive number by typing:diskpart list disk On my machine the USB disk was number 1.
5. Format the drive by typing:
-select disk 1
-clean
-create partition primary
-select partition 1
-active
-format fs=NTFS
-assign
-exit
6. Mount the Windows 7 beta iso or insert the disk.
7. Navigate to the boot directory cd E:oot (Where E is the drive letter of the DVD)
8. Using bootsect, we’ll make the USB drive a bootable NTFS drive, ready for a Windows 7 image: bootsect /nt60 F: (Where F is the drive letter of the USB Drive)
9. Close the command prompt
10. Copy the installation files from the mounted Windows 7 iso/disk to the USB drive.
11. Reboot the PC, and enter the BIOS (OR you can move to the boot manager menu, usually by pressing F10 if supported)
12. Set the boot priority to boot the USB drive first.
13. Install Windows 7.

All right, so I recently bought a new computer (it was refurbished)
I've done a lot of tweaking on it already, I installed a new video card and put in a new power supply unit. I am also dualbooting into both Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.04. On my windows 7 boot, I installed oblivion. Fully installed it on the first try, then after a small issue concerning mods, I had to re-install. It reinstalled fine, but then I realized that I had installed it overtop all the files from the mods (in C:/.../oblivon). So I had to reinstall again. No big deal I though. Well! Now it is giving me a ton of problems.
During the install it gives me the error 0x80070017 and says it can't install. I looked up the error on google and it says that it's data corruption. It happens every time! I've rebooted, uninstalled / reinstalled other games, triple checked that there was nothing in C:/oblivion, everything I can think of.

This is a new pc. Win7, 120Gb SSD (primary C drive) 1 Tb Hdd (D), 16Gb ram. I've had it for about a month, and just wondering if i need to install a defragger for the SSD drive. I used to use Smart Defrag on my old pc and found it invaluable for keeping it up to any sort of speed. This one currently 'flies' and i wanna keep it that way.

I did a custom install from vista to 7(32 bit) today.
I deleted all old restore points through the space management, however, the partition reads a still mostly full. There is only 1.8gb out of 8.3 available. When I access the folder, there is nothing in there, even if I show hidden files.
I believe it is remnants of my old vista recovery drive, which I did not erase prior to my upgrade and was always equally full to what it is now.
How would I go about eliminating these files now so I can backup my new OS installation?
