drive stopped reconizing disks...
A few days ago I installed the window vista on my gateway laptop, after that
my drive stopped recognizing disks in my dvd/cd drive. Drive runs for about 5 seconds then stops like there is no disk in it. If you go to my computer to try and find the disk, it is not there. Any advice??? |

RE: drive stopped reconizing disks...
I am also having the same problem. Files (documents) that are saved to a CD
and will open with XP on several other computers will do nothing on the computer with VISTA. When I try to open them with the RUN comand everything stops responding "HEEEEEEEEELP!" wrote: > A few days ago I installed the window vista on my gateway laptop, after that > my drive stopped recognizing disks in my dvd/cd drive.

Re: drive stopped reconizing disks...
I did not upgrade from XP to Vista. This is a totally new computer and Vista
came installed. Does this fix still apply? I was able to launch installation discs, etc., but no saved documents or pictures.

Re: drive stopped reconizing disks...
Third party software like Roxio, Nero and iTunes can affect the registry this
way too. So, yes you should see if this is your problem. -- I Bleed Blue and Gold GO BEARS!
