My DVD ROM Drive was messing up in the process of troubleshooting it I somehow either deleted or uninstalled and now don't have a drive to put the main disk in to reload it. all I know is the info the best I can tell on what it was is one of the two below. If you can tell me where I can download the driver from it would be great. Don't see it available on the Hp site This is for an HP Pavillion 7955
it is either: IONDER DVD-RO @ VD-16-1 or
PIONDER DVD-ROM@VD16-1 Please let me know at the email if you can help
Thanks J

Ask a question
I just finished burning a dvd and when I looked to get another from my vuze program to burn to a dvd I could not find the icon for windows dvd maker on my desk top nor could I find it anywhere in my computer ..it was not in the startup menu either ...the icon and the dvd maker program just vanished ...how do I get it back ...I typed this into system restore and nothing changed ...a few weeks ago the windows media player ..the latest version went on the missing list as well ..I tried to get that back but didn't succeed either,can you help me
Absolutely awesome! I spent hours upon hours trying to figure it out until I ran across that THANK YOU!
go to device manager and then click action and then scan for hardware changes... worked for me... hope it works for you...
I had the same problem with me new lap top HP dv4- 1125nr and it is not even older than 6 months. I watch DVDs on it and last night I found out the lap top would not recognize the DVD at ALL. I thought the DVD was corrupted so I waited until today February 27, 2009 to check it on my DVD player on my flat screen TV. It worked so I knew something was wrong on lap top.
Anyways, I try to update the software and did not work, I deleted the DVD program via Device Manager. I restarted the computer and did not recognize the DVD either.
Finally, I tried to Start> Run> Regedit and look for the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE> SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Control>Class once class is open look for the definition on the right side that has DVD/CD-ROM drives on the right side once you see it look for Upperfilter or Lowerfilter.
I found UPPERFILTER only. Then, I deleted it and Restarted the computer.
NOTE: make a backup in case to be safe. I personally did not back up anything since you usually have restore points for any mistake you may make on your computer, but you cannot go wrong by backing it up.
As soon as I inserted the DVD the Lap top recognized the Movie.
Try it I hope it works, I hate to see lap tops giving trouble specially when new.

Thanks Ross..
This was the exact solution I required !
It solved my problem just like that .. I was worried that I may have to re install vista all over again.
Thanks for the big help.

Hi - Had the exact same problem with Cd/DVD drive disappearing.. I have an Acer Aspire 5100 notebook, Windows Vista. Here's what I did and it successfully restored my CD/DVD drive. Good luck. Hope this works for you too.
Follow these steps:
Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer.
Click the Start button , click the arrow next to the Lock button , and then click Restart.
Do one of the following:
If your computer has a single operating system installed, repeatedly press the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you will need to try again.
If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to highlight the operating system you want to start, and then press F8.
On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight Last Known Good Configuration, and then press ENTER.
If your computer has more than one operating system installed, use the arrow keys to highlight the operating system that you want to start by using Last Known Good Configuration, and then press ENTER. Windows will then resume starting normally.
