Remove ALL power, then check cables in both ends. Remove and replace, do not just snug. For laptops you can often clean the power and data contacts with a pencil eraser.

Some DVD drives do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the System maker and device maker to see if there is firmware or drivers for you drive if needed.

There are some registry entries that the troubleshooter does not fix and those "might" be the cause. Check with your System Maker and Device maker for both possible firmware updates and the correct Registry entries for your drive.

Be sure to ask for specific keys involved as well as the settings. Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. Jimbo Jack. It does show in device manager. The Drive Properties screen shows Code 39, driver corrupted or missing.
