    Files scanned to 4.7GB DVD disappeared from disc


    Hi Guys

    I scanned documents directly on to a DVD. I viewed the files on the DVD to look at a file, everything was fine at that point. Then I viewed the files again a second time, they had gone. The 'files waiting to be burnt' or similar message came up, but ignored it; thinking I would look at it later. I didn't burn them. Since then Windows April Upgrade has caused issues, but on 23rd May; laptop went into a recovery loop, then in error Diskpart was used which caused further issues. The only information I have is the date the DVD was created. Where do I go looking for these files?

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    CD/DVD not seeing disc

    Thanks for the effort is helping to correct my problem.

    Device manager say: Hardware is functioning properly.

    Drivers says they are up to date.

    In computer link says nothing is in CD/DVD, Asking to open and it says Put disc in when it is there... I don't hear or feel CD/DVD getting to speed. I tried all 3 steps suggested with no results, or changes.

  3. DVD player unable to play media files from computer.

    Hello Chin,

    We regret form the inconvenience. Let me assist you.

    As an initial recommendation, I suggest you to work through the steps below to identify the cause of the problem.

    The problem could lie with:

    • The connector cables/connections - are they securely fastened? Are they in the right place? Are all the electrical sockets in good working order?
    • The DVD disc itself - Check if a different DVD works
    • The DVD Player's optical reader (the lens which 'reads' the data from DVDs)

    As an initial recommendation, I suggest you to check if decreasing the speed of your burner while writing the disk help.

    Hope the above information holds good.

    Thank You.
