I'm using an HP Laptop, it worked just fine about a week ago and I just previously was forced to restore it to factory image so I already lost everything and now it won't read any discs at all. I had no devices or anything inside during the recovery, I did all the steps just fine like the last...

I have two cd/dvd rw burners on my HP desktop computer. Neither one is being recognized. There is power to both-the doors open/close. When I look in the Control Panel Device Manager, both are still listed, but they both have a yellow circle with an explanation point in the center. I run...

I'm in the market for a new CD/DVD/radio player for my 1995 Toyota RV Troopie. Budget is around $300 (Aust $). I want a USB slot, not sure about bluetooth but the unit must be robust for rough dirt roads/impacts. Also single Din or double Din? Any recommendations? The vehicle is a Series 75.

I recently added a hard drive to my computer, and it is hooked up to the CD/DVD drive with the problem. I believe the disc drive is set to slave, and the hard drive to master. But sometimes when I open the disc tray, it'll close automatically, without me even pushing the button! Why is that...

...there a way I can still install it? I used the Product Key written on the inside cover and thought I had it for a while because it was performing checks but then one day it just said I had turned Firewall off and my subscription had expired. I guess I somehow only had a demo version. Can I...

I've done a lot of research today, 11 hours worth so far and I've found myself back at square one. Thought the problem was TAGES but now that I've gotten rid of that the problem is still persisting. It's not the laser eyes, that seems to be the most popular reason given. My cd/dvd rom still...
