    Surface Pro 6 will not recognize D: drive with LG portable DVD writer


    When I try to connect the LG portable DVD Writer to my Surface Pro 6, I het the following error message: "D:/ The director name is invalid". I am using DVD-R discs. When I insert discs that my wife has, I can play them. I have about 2 dozen discs on which all my kids childhood memories are stored and need to transfer them to thumb drives for them to have. Help...

    :)

    Samsung portable dvd writer model se 208 not workiing on my surface pro

    Hello Jesrael,

    • Through USB.
    • Yes it is the first time.
    • No error messages.
    • Spotted it in the "Computer" as a DVD Drive and right clicked to open it and was asked which app it wanted me to open it with. Tried windows media but it could not open it.
    Regards,

    Manalulu
