Duronic Usb 20 Slim Portable Optical Drive Drivers
Jan 22, 2018 - I took the time to register, so that I could thank you for getting my DVD drive recognised. Duronic Usb 2.0 Slim Portable Optical Drive Drivers.
Hello, I have a Toshiba Satelite T135RD-S1325RD with Windows 7. Since it's a notebook, it did not come with a CD drive so I recently purchased the 'USB 2.0 Slim Portable Optical Drive.' While the Optical Drive reads CDs just fine, it refuses to read DVDs, which was the reason why I bought the thing in the first place. My computer says that the optical drive is working just fine, but it just will not recognized DVDs. I don't know how to fix it and no where is telling me how to unless I pay $50 or something for a program that is not guaranteed to work. Can anybody help me?
I managed to fix this one myself. The fix was for Windows 8/8.1 but it worked perfectly for Windows 10. Run Command Prompt as an Administrator. Copy/type the following and enter reg.exe add 'HKLM System CurrentControlSet Services atapi Controller0' /f /v EnumDevice1 /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000001 3.
Reboot the system My DVD drive was then automatically recognised. Yippee.I took the time to register, so that I could thank you for getting my DVD drive recognised.
Bit of a poor show from Microsoft, but hey, it was a free upgrade. All the other 'fixes' were nonsense. Thanks again.
Hi, It really isn't my day. I recently upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7 and previously my DVD/CD Drive was working perfectly.
Now, nowhere on my PC, and I mean nowhere, is my DVD/CD drive recognised as existing. There is no DVD drive showing in Device Manager or in Settings>Devices. I have taken the side panel off my PC and all cables are properly plugged in. I have not tampered with the BIOS at all.
Please, can somebody help as I really need to burn a disk tonight? Thanks, Charles.My computer is an upgraded Dell E510 with 4 gb ram from Win7 to Win10.
The upgrade went off without a hitch until I discovered that my dvd drive had disappeared. The dvd drive worked before the upgrade. Now it does not show in the Device Manager and in fact cd/dvd drives are not even listed. There is no listing for atapi drives. I had VLC player installed to view movies so I uninstalled, rebooted, and reinstalled. An external drive works but what is the use of having an internal drive if the computer cant see it.
Hacking the Registry is not my thing. Bad things happen when wrong things get typed in there. I am seriously looking at rolling back to Windows 7 which was working fine.
