cd/dvd drive problems

johnm487 · 09-17-2007, 08:52 PM

my cd/dvd drive wont play burnt dvds or record dvds anymore. it hardly burns music cds. when i try to burn an iso image or dvd image to a dvd, it will finish, but there wont be anything on the dvd. it appears that information has been burnt, but nothing will show up. a while back i burnt some games to dvds. they dont work in my computer, but when i use them on another computer, they work fine. the autorun comes up, then it runs setup then comes up with some error message. ive run virus scans and all that and nothing comes up. its been like this for awhile, and im real close to just reformating my machine but i dont want to go through all that trouble of setting up my machine again. let me know what ever information you need and ill get back to you.

welcome
try uninstalling then reinstalling your burner program.

ill will try that when i get home from work. but the thing is, ive burnt cd images to disk fine then had the game run fine, but the dvds that i made dont work anymore and they run fine on other machines. does my burning app have anything to do with how my computer runs burnt disks?
