Default Dvd Drive Not Reading Purchaded Dvd Movie


I have a Compaq Presario F600

My dvd drive tells me that there is no disk in the drive when there is.
I was trying to place a movie in to watch and it would not pick it up.
It made all the sounds as if it was trying to read it but it could not.
when i try to press on the drive to open it a window pops up telling the
drive is empty when it is not. Every once in a while a small disk thing
on the mouse will come up for a moment then leave, but still not reading
the disk.

I tried to go to device manager and uninstall then reinstall. still did
not help problem. It says its is working properly.

I dont know what is wrong with it.

i tried another disk and still it does not work.

Have you tried a cd lens cleaner? Also what are you using (software) to play
this movie?

Richard, the name the responder gave "Charles Richmond" does not return any
result in the MVP search using the MVP link he provided. Really don't
expect the person to ever give the information you requested and I really
suspect the person is NOT a Microsoft MVP.

What does "the privacy and disclosure unit" mean? And if you really are an
MVP, then you will have no problem posting a link to your MVP profile.

LOL. That is why you have impersonated Malke, Ken Blake and other MVP's before and
using other Aliases. Your headers tell the story. Also I have no idea where you got
Ohio from but for sure I am not even close to that state. If you have a MVP status
then prove it by posting your profile. You obviously cannot. Get a life
