The problem is with the readings of Windows Experience Index for 3D Gaming. A laptop I consider buying has the GT 630M GPU which according to notebookcheck.net gets an avg. score of 6.1 and a max of 6.7 for 3D gaming.
View 1 RepliesI 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

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?

To give you heads up I have Googled the issue and found some so called solutions but nothing worked for me.
1. Changing the Link State Power Management settings.
2. There are no upper and lower filters so I couldn't do anything more.
3. Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers.
My USB ports on my computer are not reading anything plugged into them.This is a big hassle for a laptop user.More information:
-I'm using Windows 7
-The ports ARE delivering power
-The support site for my computer's drivers and BIOS is in Chinese and all the links and downloads don't work
-I have tried restarting
-I have tried removing the battery and power source for 15 minutes and rebooting
-I have tried disabling my USB controllers and then re-enabling
-I have tried uninstalling all the USB drivers and restarting my computer and having it reinstall them for me.
I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop with windows 7 and the DVD drive is not working at all. I have tried with brand new DVDs, music CDs and video games and none of them work.When I put in a disc there are a few wurring noises but nothing loads up. When I click on the drive in Computer the drive opens and tells me to insert a disc.In properties and Device Manager it says the device is working properly.I have tried reinstalling the drive, deleting upper and lower filters, and I have run the Windows Fixit program and nothing has worked so far. My drive is: TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633C ATA Device.My computer is about a year old and is completely standard. I have hardly used the DVD driver at all since I purchased the computer so I have no idea how it could have broke.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI noticed this a few minutes ago, I just got finished watching a movie, and was putting music on when I was about to load World of Warcraft, I brought up winamp with the tracks from the CD that I had saved to my playlist, and it'd skip right over them to the next track I'd saved on my hard drive, I'd tried deleting the filters as I'd seen in other threads, and even shutting down, unplugging it, and re-plugging it back into my power supply, but still to no avail.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've recently installed Win 7 Ultimate x64 on both of my PCs, and neither can read my DVD+R discs properly. I've got dual-boot on both systems, so I've checked and there's no problem at all in XP, but in Win 7 the drive goes crazy, almost like it's trying to read different parts of the disc at the same time. Anyway, it shows the contents but when I click on a folder, that's when it starts chugging and Explorer locks up until I eject the disc.I did a fresh install of Win 7 into a VHD on PC 2, and that doesn't have any problem reading the discs, so something's happened on both since installing Win 7 I guess. I also used an XP guest in Virtualbox on PC 2 and that could read the discs just fine so it was obviously able to bypass whatever issue Win 7 has.I had Daemon Tools on both PCs, but uninstalled it completely (including the SPTD driver) on PC 2, which didn't help. Neither did uninstalling Avira Antivir. I've disabled Indexing/Windows Search on both PCs, as well as Win 7's CD Burning function (via Group Policy Editor).
The DVD drive is not recognized after you install Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 which I've installed on PC 1 to no avail. PC 2 has SP1 installed.It's obviously rather annoying to have to boot to XP (or use a VM) to copy files from DVD to my hard drive so that Win 7 can access them, so if anyone knows how to fix this problem I'd be most grateful.

My drive was running perfectly until i tried to burn a data-dvd disc the other day. It has done it before just fine and on the same day, i burned a music cd. The drive is: PLDS DVD+-RW DH-16A6S ATA DEVICE.It all started when i tried to backup one of my .iso files by copying it to a memorex 8x 8.5GB DVD+R with Nero 10. It stopped halfway with some generic error(that I'm sorry that i cannot remember). Being a complete novice, i uninstalled Nero and blamed the program for wasting 8 of my discs .I tried roxio 2012 next-Once again, it froze halfway through the copy and gave me some error. I tried ImgBurn-Halfway samething MagicISOMaker-Made it 100% Burning a disk that doesn't work. (tested in another PC)After going through roughly 15 discs, i decided to visit the dell support page to see if they had any firmware updates. They did: Windows/DOS based firmware flash update for PLDS DH-16AAS DVDRW.
Release Date: 8/17/2009
Version: A01JD12
So, now my drive has the latest firmware update for it i should be in good hands....(or not)After that, i tried maybe 2 more failed burns and then my drive just refused to read anything at all. Blank dvds, CDs with data on them (it would show up as a blank Cd...)I tried the Microsoft Fix it tool about a thousand times hoping that it would work one day...(i'm actually running it right now...how sad. When it gets to this part, whatever DVD or CD in the drive at the moment is read and autorun pops up(i once tried to burn it that way, failed) The MR Fix it will exit and say no problem was found.
Tried CDgone also.I deleted the uppers filters/lowers filters...i even got angry and deleted them ALL and had to do a system restore to get my PC back to working again...I am sorry if a solution for this is somewhere on the forums but i just could not find it...

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a custom built PC with a Pioneer bd rom drive. None of my dvd's can be read, I can view some of them IF I use Total Media Player, but, the dvd drive doesn't give me any information about the inserted dvd. I've removed the upper and lower filters, no help. I've removed the drive totally and let Windows detect it upon restart.....still doesn't work. I've tried other external drives, and I have the same problem with them detecting and reading the dvd's/ I'm lost as to what to try next.. I'm running Win 7 Ultimate x64 and I'm about ready to smash it....I've also tried Virtual Clone Drive and that doesn't work now either....
View 4 Replies View RelatedI own a dell xps L501x. My dvd player is not reading any dvd movies, disc with data.. and etc. It reads cd though. I insert a blank dvd, it reads the blank dvd and ask me what i want to do. But if i insert a dvd with things on it, it would not read it. If i click on the dvd drive, after awhile my dvd tray will eject and pops up a message asking me to insert a dvd.
I check the driver, and it says everything is working properly. I went on dell website and did a dell hardware diagnosed and everyhting passed.

I Have been running the RC of windows 7 for some time and had a problem with the amount of RAM it was reading. However I was told that it was a known problem and would be fixed in the final release.
Yesterday did a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and Windows is only reading 3.25GB ram, they system has 4gb of ram installed.

I am having a problem reading some CDs on my Win7 64 bit machine. On the ones which don't work the properties window shows it as empty and the disk checker says it is not formatted.. The program CDCheck says that the CD has Win32 type file system, and that this is not recognized by my system.
Is there any way of getting my system to read the Win32 file system CD?
