    Attaching an external DVD r/rw drive to a Lenovo laptop


    I have up to date Win 10 installed and I have attached an Rioddas external dvd r/rw drive and it says "the last usb device connected has malfunctioned and is not available"

    Is there another driver required?

    :)

    External DVD/RW not recognized withWindows 10

    Unfortunately my problem is still not sorted. My Windows 10 Lenovo Yoga laptop will not recognize my external DVD/RW drive.

    Any more suggestions anyone, apart from those suggested above?

    DVD Drive not Reading DVD+RW or DVD+R DL disks

    My DVD drive (F) will not write on a
    DVD+RW disk or a DVD+R DL disk. I have no problem using regular DVD's. (only RW & DL). I've researched online and I uninstalled the driver as per the instructions and restarted my computer but the problem
    wasn't fixed. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Attaching an external DVD r/rw drive to a Lenovo laptop

    External DVD RW drive

    Hi!

    I installed an LG portable super multi drive some years ago when the built-in DVD+RW drive no longer functioned. It worked very satisfactorily but it now is showing signs of wearout and needs replacing. Unfortunately I upgraded to Windows 10 last year (?)
    and as far as I can see none of the commonly available external RW drives are compatible with Windows 10! Does anyone have any experience in this area or have any suggestions?

    Thanks in anticipation.
