    DVD/CD Player not working


    I have a Lenovo G505s Laptop with Windows 10 and a DVD/ CD Player that suddenly does not work. The computer tells me the drivers are OK. I have been into Device Manager and uninstalled and reinstalled both the DVD player and the associated controller without success. The DVD player appears to be working OK ( I can hear it working and the small power light comes on ) but for some reason the system does not recognise it . I am reluctant to get involved in registry changes ( suggested as a possible source of the problem ) as I am not too computer savvy.

    CD/DVD Player not working

    The CD/DVD player on my desktop pc, has become very unreliable, since updating to windows 10



    Problem:

    With a CD/DVD inserted into the player .

    • 1% of the time it works correctly and play a CD without any problems.


    • 99% of the time it does not acknowledge the disk, a green light flashes 6 or 7 times and then goes back to do nothing mode.


    • If I try to start the CD directly in windows explorer, a dialog box appears instructing me to insert a disk. I know these disks to be working.


    Troubleshooting carried out

    • The device manager reports the device is working properly.
    • Checked the drivers are up-to date,
    • Uninstalled the drivers
    • Scanned for hardware changes
    • Uninstalled the hardware
    • Rebooted several times
    • Scanned with DeviceDiagnostic Troubleshooting Pack Cabinet (.diagcab)
    • Checked all the cable connections
    • Did a control panel troubleshoot and Reconfigure hardware (cd player worked when I did a restart, but only the once and then continued the error)

    DVD/CD player with Windows 10?

    How do I work the DVD/CD player after I downloaded Windows 10?

    I manage a Computer Center for Seniors and since we updated a couple of the desktops to Window 10, we can no longer use the DVD/CD players.


    Suggestions? and thanks.
