Hi,

I had recently restored my Vista 32 Home premium system after crash and I have noticed, that my dvd drive disappeared. I have allready tried to follow intructions about deleting upper and lower filters from regedit.exe but these filters were not there. So I tried to reinstall drivers but no succes. DVD is still in shown in bios and system manager. Any ideas how to fix it ? I will be gratefull for any idea. Thank you

Greetings,

Have your tried going into Settings from the Start menu, select Control Panel, then select Add Harware. Follow the directions and see if you can force recognition.

Good Luck

Hello,

today I didn't found drive in system manager and Add hardware wasn't much helpful. But I entered Bios I am not exactly sure what I did, but after restart my dvd drive showed up again! Just hope it still will be there tomorrow :-). Thank you for your help.

I use PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-217..My pc hasn't been a year..
It's unable to write any DVD,and maybe CD too..
I check in divice manager..and it says:
Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)
if uninstall and reinstall the device can fix this problem??

Icon for stationery gone

I am shocked and sad.  I use the stationery feature at the bottom of my email just about every day, but suddenly it is no longer there!  Did I delete it by accident?  How may I get it back?
