    CD Writer no longer works


    Hello,

    My external Liteon CD Writer no longer works.

    It starts to record, then ejects the CDs.

    I have tried CD Burner XP as well as Windows Media Player and various makes of CD.

    It works OK on other Computer and has worked fine on this HP Computer until just recently.

    Could anybody suggest a solution please?

    Thank you,

    Chris Frith

    :)

    Microsoft 10 and Samsung DVD/CD writer not working

    Either one of the previous suggestions did not work either.

    Example is that when I put the cd in that came with the writer, the writer runs and the files come up but the pages do not come up. I can click on a file and that opens up and click on another file and that comes up as a picture using slide viewer.

    No other options available. Like I said earlier, when a cd is put in the writer, the box that comes up that says run, etc. does not come up but does in another notebook using W-7.

    Maybe just a suggestion on a replacement that is compatible and will work.

    Thanks

    lost cd writer upon win 10 install


    My CD writer is recognized by the asus bios , but after installing win 10, the OS does not recognize it. I have moved the sata cable from one port to the other, and tried several other things, all to no avail. Anyone have a suggestion?? *Sad

    Everything else works fine!

    Microsoft 10 and Samsung DVD/CD writer not working

    I've done everything suggested plus had a rep from Microsoft control my computer but no luck. Drivers say up to date. Firmware is current(2014) and nothing says it's incompatible.

    Either Microsoft needs to remedy this or I need some suggestions for external DVD/CD writers that will work with W-10. I'm not going to purchase something and not work again. I've spent entirely too much time at this. Samsung is no help either.

    Thanks for the suggestions but there's something just not clicking quite right.
