Solve : dvd drive?

Answer»

just bought a rebuilt system the D drive will read some discs but not others. says please insert a disc into drive D . I know the discs are ok, they run on my laptop. Any ideas on why this would happen? Appreciate any help.Some LOWER end or older Drives can be picky with discs CREATED in specific formats based on the original drive used to create them and a drive such as yours that seems selective as to what it will read and not read.

Easiest solution is usually to replace the drive with a new drive. This clears up the issue 99% of the time.

The good thing is that drives are cheap if you dont already have a spare available.Are the disks that it won't read DVD? Not all drives will accept both.

To be certain look on the front of the tray, if it will play both you should SEE a symbol for both.Thanks to all who made suggestions. It was a CD not dvd drive...duh anyway PROBLEM solved thanks again.Glad we could solve that for you. Come back any time.
