hey ddp thats the only thing i havent tried so far and thats certainly should help but why is that the pirated cd's dont work and or any dvd which is copied? orginal i dont have any problem! damm hate it i am still trying to find out the answer.
have you ever had a burnt cd that couldn't be read by a cdrom but could by a cd burner its the same problem with dvds. whats the difference between cd/dvdroms & cd/dvd burners its to do with the read/writehead. when you do a burn try that disk on a regular drive to see if you can see info. another possiblilty of not seeing copied disk is that they were burnt at a too high of a speed so if you slow down the speed the laser burns deeper so that a regular drive has a better chance of reading info off disc
hey if that message was for me i am sorry to have u in misconception i dont have a dvd burner or cd writer. its just a reader not a burner .. the only option left is try a lens cleaner. i hope that works. any other suggestions???? Thanks
Hi there, I have a sd-c2612 sleeve module from a HP laptop, now I want to use it in my IBM thinkpad R51 thru Paralell port cable. is it possible?, How can i do this?
that sleeve module i presume fits inside the hp, how are you going to use a parallel cable than on ibm
Thank you Budz, After hours of trying to figure this one out your answer was wright on the nose. This is not a burner!!!!!!! Why would dell sell a laptop with no backup drives. Why is this called a storage device!!!!!!
Well, may be I was trying to connect the DVD sleeve module with a cable that realy connects a floppy disk, the cable is like this one http://www.audiotronics.es/product.aspx?imageid=1&productid=8291. THX!
Don't know it it helps but I had the same problem with my SD-C2612 (mounted on a HP OB Xe4100). Didn't read cd's or dvd's. The original firmware was 1911. So I tried to change it to X911 ( http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_firmware.php?download_id=243). Nothing happened and it was impossible to flash it back to 1911. So I flash it to 1A25, and is working great!!!!
Hi i am having the same problems with my dvd\cdrom drive, and i have done the listed solutions and still it will not read burnt cds for some reason. All other cds work, dvd ect. Just not anything I burn.
