My sony CRX320EE CD-RW/DVD-ROM COMBO Drive is not read a dvd

Hi,

My first test would be to determine if the blank DVD is faulty. Try using a different brand of DVD and see if you get the same error. My experience tells me that your combo drive is faulty however. It is possible for a combo drive to read a CD but not a DVD. I would replace the combo drive with a DVD writer as they are not too expensive.


Best wishes,

Spend $40 to buy a new CD/DVD reader/writer -- this is less expensive than paying a technician to try to trouble-shoot.

CD-Rom and DVD drives in itself do not need drivers in Windows, but the IDE/SATA controllers they are connected to do, so maybe that is what you are looking for?
You can use a driver update program or check the website of your motherboard manufacturer.

Sorry but a DVD ROM or CD ROM can't burn thus called ROM (Read Only Memory) Must be a DVD/RW or CD/RW (Re Writable)

When you say "not eject", I'm assuming you have tried ejecting from a physical button on the drive as well as selecting eject in Windows Explorer. If not, give it a try. If still a problem, note a small hole in the drive. Open a paper clip and gently place one end in the drive. The drive should open. Hope that helps.

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.

I can't Open/play any DVD from Combo drive & i can't write any cd from this. I have not any burning softwear.

Thanks
