The DVD driver stoped working, it actually cannot read dvds again

most sony CD and DVD players have a digital signature design to play CDs and DVDs that are original and licensed. some CDs or DVDs dont work since the player does not recognize or scan any digital signature embedded in the CD or a DVD. 2nd, lens problem causes most players not to read CDs nor DVDs. you can try to buy CD or DVD lens cleaners to have your lens cleaned.

actually the problem of your writemaster is the speedometer or what we call Laser Eye. This Laser Eye is damage but not totally can read only CDs but not DVDs, you can no longer burn a DVDs on it, i experience to that, only CDs can read and write on it. This time you buy a new DVD Writer to replace on it, or if warranty you can send it back to the Store you buy. I tell you it is still not working.. Just buy a new one. Good Luck!

nuinstall then reinstall divix

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

DVD drive reads DVDs but not CDs

my dvd has stopped working and only plays cds how do i get it working for dvds?
thanks

Could be it does not like the brand of dvd discs, if they are dvd burnt discs. You need to be more specific, is it reading any dvds at all??? If it has no issues with cds, it may not be the driver, but if it is playing up, it would not hurt to try unistalling it and reinstalling also with an updated driver. good luck lilacgerry xxx

have you tried cleaning the lens? i also had this experience with my dvd rom and what i did, was cleaned the lens.

tell us what happen after you clean it ok.

Try this, but if the problem persists, you need to replace the drive. Go to my computer>properties>hardware>device manager and look down the list for your cd/dvd drives and click the '+' sign then highlight your dvd drive and right click to delete. Restart the pc and windows will find the drive again automatically and install the drivers.

upgrade the firmware on the product.
