New DVD/CD - Not Running

First check the bios ,see if it it is listed as a startup device.
if not then the mainboard is not recognizing it and you Should check the cables and connections.
Forget devices, open the Device Manager and see if it is there, check properties
un check "turn off this device to save power" (just for now)
also check for any errors.
second step if all appears good is to delete the dvd in the Device Manager with the drivers.
reboot and see if it shows.

 

how do I change the default CD burning device in Windows 10

Hi Darren,

There are several factors that could cause the issue. We would like to ask these following questions to know more about the issue:

• Is your computer detecting your external CD drive in Device and drivers?
• Did you check Device Manager to see if its being detected there?

We suggest you check Device and drivers and Device Manager if its being detected by your computer. You can refer to the following steps to know how you can check it:

• To check in Device and drivers:

• From the Start menu, type This PC, then hit the
  Enter key.
• A window will appear with the Device and drivers.
• Check your external CD driver if its listed in this option.

• To check in Device Manager:

• From the Start menu, type Device Manager, then hit the
  Enter key.
• A window will appear with a list of your drivers installed on your PC.
• Look for DVD/CD-ROM drivers from the list.
• Click the DVD/CD-ROM drivers to expand and check install drivers.
  

Let us know about the update.

Hi,

Thank you for the reply.

Suggest you to completely reinstall the cd/dvd driver and check if that helps.

Follow these steps.

• 
  Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
  
• 
  In the list of devices, you should see cd/dvd rom drive.
  
• 
  Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
  
• 
  In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
  

In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes”
option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.
