Emulate Computers Cd Dvd Drive?

Aug 22, 2011

I had an old version of VirtualDrive Pro that I just unpacked, and that doesn't work with Windows 7. I emailed the company to ask about upgrading and they never responded. Is there another company that makes a similar product, with better customer service? I just want to be able to play games without having the CD or DVD in the drive.

[WiFi] Laptop Can't See Other Computers In Network?

Aug 13, 2011

I have a home network that has been set up on a modem with internal router for ethernet ports and wifi. When computers connected to the modem via ethernet cables, they can easily discover each other through the 'network' icon. But when I connect my laptop to the network's wifi, only the desktop computer can see the laptop in 'network' and not the other way. The laptop can't see any computers. When I tried to connect/open the laptop through the computer, error code 0x80070035 network path not found came up.I tried pinging the computers (both with ip address and name), and heres what happened:-when I ping desktop to laptop, it didn't work-when I ping laptop to desktop, there was response. Then the desktop showed up on the laptop's 'network', and I can view/transfer shared files. desktop can also connect/open the laptop's shared files. Pinging from desktop to laptop also works.I've checked things like firewall, make computer discoverable in network, services. They all make no difference to the situation. Where unless if I ping the desktop from my laptop, the desktop won't show up and file sharing won't work.

Laptop Can Not Connect To D-Link Even Though Other Computers Can

Apr 11, 2012

My computer was working fine yesterday, it showed about 6 Networks and I was able to connect to my own network, D-Link fine. Now after playing a game via game booster I tried to acces Google Chrome and it says "this webpage is not available" I cant acces Skype or steam or anything that requires internet. I thought I had simply disconnected my self but when I went to check, it shows no networks. I thought this was my connection but then tried other devices "I-Mac, I-Pad, Windows XP Desktop and a DSI" and they all seem to find many networks and connect to D-Link fine.

Can Drive Images Be Shifted Across Computers

Jan 23, 2013

Now I have a doubt if drive images will work on different computers. I think windows may not work if I do it. Have any of you guys tried it? I also know that unnecessary drivers may be left installed. But the main question is will Windows work if I transfer a drive image to a different computer?

USB Drive Not Recognized By Multiple Computers

Jan 18, 2013

I have 2 Windows 7 Computers and neither one will recognize a Lexar 16gb usb flash drive, my son has a Windows 8 Computer and it won't recognize it either. I see the drive in disk mgmt, and, sometimes, Windows explorer, but when I click on it, in Windows Explorer, I get the message, "Please insert a disk into Removable Disk(I". In Disk Mgmt, the device says "No Media", when I right click to go to Properties, the device status shows "This device is working properly" and, finally, when I try to update the driver, it sas the driver is up to date. I think the drive is dead (it was bought for my son for Christmas), but want someone else's opinion

Dvd Drive Refusing To Read Anything?

Jun 29, 2012

My Optiarc DVD RW AD-7203A drive refuses to recognize any sort of media I put within it. I am unsure of when this problem occured (because I rarely use the drive, which begs the question of how in the world can it stop working), but I do know that nothing I have tried has helped me.I've tried all of the following:Editing the registry to no avail because the "Lower Filters" key is not present, therefore the kb article is of no use.Uninstalling/reinstalling the drive Changing the Start key in the registry to "3" Formatting the entire machine and restoring to factory settings The thing is, whenever I enter the Device Manager to check on the drive, it keeps saying it's working perfectly/drivers are up-to-date/blah blah blah. I've tried searching everywhere but to no avail, and I may soon just take a hammer to it and be done with this crap.However, I am hoping that you mates can help me before rage takes over and I smash this thing to bits! Also, is it possible for a drive to be stuck in "burn mode" (as in it thinks it's always burning a cd/dvd)?

DVD Drive Won't Read DVDs

Oct 31, 2011

Recently my DVD burner does not see any DVDs on my computer that I built a couple of months ago. It does not see Movies, Games(that are DVD), Blank DVD-R or DVD-R that I have written information to. I have put in a few different CDs(Game, Audio and Data) and they do get recognized by the drive. My problems all started when I was writing to a Blank DVD. While it was burning, the burn process failed about midway through. After that happened, my problems with the drive not recognizing the DVDs started.

I had done a system restore to an earlier restore point before I had the problems with the drive, but that did not help. So, I undid the system restore. I have also tried uninstalling the drive from the Device Manager and restarted, but that also did not work.

The computer is running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. The model of the DVD burner is a LiteOn iHAS524-T98 B. The Manufacture Date of the drive is April 2011, so it's not that old of a drive.

Way To Read Drive Channels

Apr 22, 2011

I have an Asus M3A76-CM MB with 6 available SATA ports...here is what is being reported in device manager:

ST31000333AS

Location 0 (Channel 2, Target 0, Lun 0)

ST31000340AS

Location 0 (Channel 0, Target 0, Lun 0)

ST32000542AS

Location 0 (Channel 1, Target 0, Lun 0)

in physically looking at the MB, I see that the SATA cable for the 542 is in the 3 position (facing the MB looking down), but is there a way to determine which drive is C: and what is D: (the 542 is being assigned F:, and the CD/DVD is E.

CD Drive Won't Read Any CDs Or DVDs

Jul 30, 2012

I found one thread on here where someone had the same issue, and there were links to two "Fixes" ...one of them worked for the CD I inserted during the process..it showed up in iTunes in everything. When I took the CD out and tried to put it in a new one, it went back to the same thing - saying there is no disc in the drive. I tried running the fix again and this time it keeps saying not fixed. I was so excited because it looked like it worked, but no. The computer says that the drive is working properly, but obviously it isn't. HP wants to charge $60+ to fix it because it's a few months out of warranty.

HP Dv7 Disk Drive Won't Read Anything

Nov 1, 2012

I cant burn dvds on my hp dv7. I use Win 7 64 bit Home Standard edition. I have owned this computer 3 years now and since my free upgrade from Vista to Win 7 the problem has existed. As far as I can tell the filter trick only works for one or two of these machines, and will only really help the problem when it first manifests itself with burning issues. One day your filters will just break in the registry, and at this point the problem becomes unsolvable, even by changing out hardware, or uninstalling and reinstalling old hardware. It would be nice if someone other than Microsoft or HP would look into this or that said companies would make a real effort to figure out if the problem is an interaction between the firmware and the registry or the driver cache and the registry. I fix networks and computers for a living, and am working on my BSIS in Technology Management?

Two Windows 7 Computers - One Can't Save Files Directly To C Drive?

May 21, 2011

I have two computers currently running Windows 7.
-On both computers, I use an account with administrator privileges
-On both computers UAC is set at the default level.

For some reason, on one computer I am capable of saving files on the C drive without having to run a program with UAC, but on the other computer this does not work. Similarly, if I right click on a program in my C drive and click "Create Shortcut" I receive the message "Windows can't create a shortcut here. Do you want the shortcut to be placed on the desktop instead?" What I'm trying to convey by point this out is this is not a problem that I have with a particular program, but an issue I'm experiencing with the operating system in general.

Windows 7 Desktop Can't Read Laptop

Both machines are Windows 7 64 bit. I have set all network settings exactly the same. I have turned off Zone Alarm on the laptop. I have set set sharing on drives and folders to Everyone. While the desktop can see the laptop over the home network, when I try to access files, I get the "enter username password" dialog box, which seems to have no function (at least to me).

Toshiba Laptop Windows 7 Can't Read Dvd?

Mar 24, 2011

Toshiba laptops which have problem CD/DVD drives seems to be fairly common. Mine can read a CD but not a DVD. I take the same DVD and it runs fine on my IBM running XP. I'm not convinced this is a hardware problem.
