Yet Again DVD isn't recognized question
Hello folks,
I upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7 Home edition. I knew that Windows 10 does not play DVDs natively so after searching on this board, I followed instructions at https://matthill.eu/tutorials/instal...d-player-free/ to install free Windows 10 DVD player.
This DVD-ROM in question is TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633C. Once I insert the DVD, it makes all standard sounds making you feel it will be recognized but eventually when you check in explorer, it shows that the DVD drive is empty. If you still try to double click, it tells you to insert the DVD and the drive opens 'with DVD inside'.
I have been checking this board since morning. Read quite many threads and tried lot many options, a couple of reboots, uninstalling DVD drive etc, but the effect is same. The DVD makes all sounds but still not getting recognized. I tried various DVDs, same result.
Just to reiternate, DVD drive as such is present but the media is not recognized. This question is very similar to that of,
DVD/CD Drive not recognising media on new Dell laptop (Windows 10) - Windows 10 Forums
CD/DVD Drive not reading discs - Page 2 - Windows 10 Forums
Dvd drive wont recognise disc, says please insert a disc into Drive E: - Page 2 - Windows 10 Forums
I doubt the drive has worn out, like others, it stopped working with Windows 10
Thanks in advance.
