hello everyone,
i have an asus n53sv laptop. i have formatted the hard disk and installed a new win 7 ultimate 64-bit OS. after installing i have noticed that the system blu-ray disc rom is not working. in the device manager there is a yellow mark next to the DVD/CD rom drives. i have tried uninstalling it from the system several times and restarted the system to recognize the blue ray disc rom but no chance. i searched the internet for the right driver, but i haven't found one. can u help me to find the right driver for my Slimtype BD E DS4E1S ?

try any type of cd or dvd if all didn't work out, then maybe the eye is either damaged or dead.

Have you tried "right-click" and clicking on 'eject' to have the DVD finalized? What program are you using to burn the DVD?

Samsung CDRW/DVD SM-352F is a CD-R,CD-RW burner not a DVD Burner

Hi,

if your DVD Drive ( ROM ) read-Only-Memory. then it will only read DVDs And Not Write Them. You need a DVD RW Drive, to be able to write. If Your CD Drive Is A CD/RW That means its a CD Re-writable drive. try a Burn To CD.

Mike @ Compurepair.

If you have the sony CD RW DVD ROM then you can't burn the data in a blank DVD.

Because your Configuration is :
Read : CD / DVD
Write : CD

This means you have a combo drive. But to burn a DVD you should have DVD RW.

you may not install the proper drivers of your burner, install it again and use some other burner application like nero cd burner etc.

well u need to check for the latest software available for your dvd drive try and find the latest software on net according to your company,and check wether the software ur using comaptible with ur windows

When you say it won?t read are you trying to play commercial DVD movies or read DVD data disks? If you're trying to play movies then you need a couple of things the first being some type of player program. Real player works as does Windows media player but usually DVD drives come with a striped down version of PowerDVD or WinDVD. If you in fact have a player installed and when a DVD is inserted in your drive it doesn't play it may not be configured to automatically play DVDs. Try opening your player program and trying to manually play your DVD. Let us know if you have any success or if you need more assisted. If you do let us know what player program and operating system you have and any error messages that may appear.
