  1. Computer asking for Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH


    Hello r/Windows10

    My grandmother was writing in a document, then the PC rebooted and had a black screen with text asking for Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH.

    Is it a DVD she recieved when she got the PC? She has no idea herself.

    Thanks for future help

    Computer asking for Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH

    CD/DVD drive not appearing in File Explorer since latest Windows 10 update

    After the latest Windows 10 update (version 1607) on 15/10/16 the CD/DVD drive on my Acer Aspire 4552 laptop does not appear in File Explorer and can't be accessed. The drive, a Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH, is listed in Device Manager with no error alerts. Clicking
    on Properties shows the device working normally. I have tried updating the drivers and windows says I have the latest drivers. I have run the usual troubleshooting methods with no success. The drive spins when I put a CD in and did work in the previous version
    of Windows 10. In Disk Management the drive is listed as Drive 1 but is 'not initialised' (C: is Drive 0). I have checked the pc's BIOS and the drive is listed no 2 in the boot sequence.

    Comparing Device Manager on this PC with another, I see there is no category for DVD/CD drives listed on the problem PC. The DVD/CD drive is listed under 'Disk drives'. Does this indicate the source of the problem?
