DVD not recognised but audio is

alex.austin@web.de — Tue, 01 Feb 2005 10:19:22 GMT

Dear All,
Can anyone help with sorting out my DVD drive. Although it plays Audio and Data discs it no longer plays DVDs. When I put a disc in, it trys to read but then nothing comes up. File Explorer does not recognise that there is anything in the drive. Also no error messages.

Operating System: Windows XP Professional (SP2)
Combo Drive: Matshita UJDA 745 DVD/CDRW
Software: WinDVD installed
Sony Vaio PCD-V505AP

Cheers & Thanks

Sorry, I don't know

I would reinstall the driver.

You can find the driver in C:\drivers
on the VAIO-Suppord
or you deinstall the driver from your drive and after this you make a system reboot (Windows was install automaticly the old driver)(I would do this as last)
