  1. Sony Optiarc AD7200S working with cds but will not burn a DVD


    I recently upgraded to Windows 10 from Vista. My CD and/or DVD reader/driver/recorder/burner is giving me a fit today. In the past, it has read and recorded CD's and read DVD's. Now, it is unable to burn a readable copy of a DVD tiff video from my desktop. In This PC "My Computer" it shows up as a "DVD RW Drive", but when I go into device manager, it shows DVD/CD - ROM. Then, when I go into driver properties there it shows Device Type DVD/CD-ROM Drives.What do I have , and will it burn a DVD?The device shows up as an Optiarc DVD+-RW AD-7200S ATA Device no menti

    I presume you are aware that your model doesn't seem to be listed by Sony as supported for Windows 10.

    Their Support page for the VPCEB2E9E only lists software and downloads for Windows 7, Vista and XP, there is however a firmware update for the drive...

    Optiarc - Wikipedia

    Is it just CDs that you can't see, or do you have the same problem with DVDs? Does the CD/DVD drive appear in File Explorer? Does Device Manager show it as working?

    Oh, strike that, I see you've already said...
    ...and have been struggling with this problem for a while now...

    ...it may be time to accept that this drive can't be made to work and go for an external USB drive instead. *Sad
