    Laptop will not play any DVD/CD's


    My Toshiba laptop will not play any DVD/CD's. I went to the Control Panel Device Manager and it says the player is working properly. When I put in a DVD and click on the D: it asks me to insert a disc. I also checked for any updates for the player but Windows 10 says the latest drives are already installed. Any ideas?

    Unable to play from CD/DVD in Windows 10.

    Hi Louis,



    To assist you better, let us know the following information.




    • What is the exact model of your HP laptop?

    • When you say “cannot play any CD/DVD” what exactly happens when you try to play?

    • Do you get any error messages or error codes?

    • Are you able to see CD/DVD drive in file explorer?

    For now, I suggest you to update the CD/DVD drivers and check if it helps.




    • Press Windows key + X key and select
      Device Manager.

    • Expand DVD/CD-ROM drives.

    • Right-click on the drive and click on Update driver software and follow the on screen instructions.

    • Restart the laptop after updating the driver.

    Hope the information helps. Kindly write back to us for further assistance on Windows. We will be happy to assist you.



    Thank you.

    Laptop will not play any DVD/CD's

    DVD/CD'S Not Playing

    Dvd's/cd's are no longer playing on my ACER Aspire E15 laptop. I downloaded Windows 10 last year. I have not used my dvd drive since installing Windows 10. When I put a DVD in, the green light comes on and then goes off and nothing else happens. The
    DVD/CD drive shows on my computer but is not being recognized when I do a chkdsk for drive d (I assume that is my DVD/CD drive). It says there is no drive d.

    Can anyone provide any suggestions to fix this problem?
