I recently tried to watch a DVD on my computer as I always do with no problems but this time I get an error saying to please insert a DvD!

Ive tried multiple Dvds..so I know its not the Dvd I was using. I tried uninstalling the drivers but that did nothing. Its weird becuase CDs are recognized.

So if anyone can help me out on what to do...plz do so.

Maybe there is a firmware update that you can try. Also, when you said u uninstalled the drivers, does that mean u also uninstalled the hardware and tried letting windows recognize it again? Let's hope your DVD laser lens isnt broken.

*Whats the model of your DVD/CD drive

I updated the firmware. And I went to device manager and clicked uninstall..but it just came back when I rebooted..and it didnt say anything about it being gone...Im not really sure how to properly un install it.

Model-

JLMS DVD-ROM XJ-HD 166 DD06 (it went from DD05 to DD06 becuase of update)

If you feel comfortable, try opening your Computer case, and make sure the IDE cable (the grey one going to ur dvd drive) is firmly attached, and if so, u can try reattaching it. The problem could also be that the laser is kind of dirty.
