    why no dvd?!


    so my windows 10 doesn't have media center...making my ability to watch dvd's hard, I have to download shady software.. if this was a "brilliant idea" to no longer have dvd software on board, it was a stupid mistake. I hope the idiot who came up with this idea lost his yacht.

    :)

    Burned DVD's Work in SOME players

    In that case, it is possible the problem is with the blu ray player not supporting DVD+R disks.

    Suggest you check to make sure: it's possible you can overcome this problem by simply burning DVD-R instead of DVD+R. Check your blu ray compatibility list first.

    Is this the HP 15r014tx in your system specs? If so, try the steps in this thread....

    It may be that your DVD drive has a hardware failure (as was suggested in that thread).
