Re: Lost the driver for samsung sd-612 so i cant play...
Hello, You can download the drivers at Samsung.com I looked your DVD drive up and they list it as a SD-612B or a SD-612S. Download the driver to your computer and then install it. Good luck!

since it doesn't have enough RAM in it, some BDs or larger multi-layer
DVDs fail to play/load entirely Its slow
to buffer BD, and even slower to upscale DVDs. It doesn't support homemade DVD+/-R movies. It also doesn't support video on CD.
SOLUTION: to get the movie to play add a 4GB SD card into it and format it
for use as extra memory. Apparently, some BDs require a lot of memory.
By adding the SD card, DVDs and THE BDs load faster and have no
play problems. The overall downside to the RAM issues and the SD card
is that, when the SD card gets full,you will have to reformat it to get
anything to play. Tho, all lost disc info needs to be rebuffered onto
the card the next time you watch the movie.
I was having a problem with Media Center/XP not recognizing my SD-612, although it was seen in the bios. I first installed the adaptec aspi, then followed the steps on:
You may have just a dvd player only.However if the front of the drive has a Dvd rom symbol and will not play Dvd. You might as well Replace the drive.
Good luck
Try re-installing your the driver for your dvd rom. Then try to put different dvds and check if it can read from your drive. If problem remains, I suspected it's your dvd rom is faulty
I have the exact drive in my desktop tower. I gave up even trying to get it to work. But go to zdnet.com awesome site with free DL's and lots of great info
You state a problem here that is going to need a lot more info before a suggested fix could be provided. is this a new drive you added to your computer or a "factory installed" drive? If a new drive, did it come with "driver files" to be installed into Windows and did you install them? During installation, what questions were you asked and how did you answer them?
By the way, my DVD drive shows up as a "CD Drive" in My Computer too, but it still reads & writes DVDs. Try right clicking on the drive in My Computer, click on "Properties" and then click on the "Hardware" tab. When the hardware screen opens, try clicking on "Troubleshoot" and follow the directions. This might work if you are in Windows XP.
