You can uninstall the DVD drive in Device Manager and reboot. Windows will detect and install the drive automatically. There is no driver to download. -- I Bleed Blue and Gold GO BEARS!

No -- NOT reinstalling Vista from scratch. Reboot = RESTART It might indeed solve your problem. Do you know how to use Device Manager? -- I Bleed Blue and Gold GO BEARS!

AAh, Good! yes i think i do:) click on the + sign at cd/dvd rom and uninstall. will try that. there are two drivers listed, one digitally signed by microsoft and another not, publisher, Sonic Solutions file version 3.00.42a (C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\PxHelp20.sys) if that means anything to you.. Ok, about to do it.

no, when i expand the cd/dvd rom item,it shows me Slimtype DVD A DS8A1P ATA Device...click on that i get a properties window. clicking Driver tab shows Microsoft version 6.0.6000.16386. click Driver Details in that tab, i get driver files...the signed microsoft one and the other. i cab play disc but have to go to media player and click play. if i open optical drive, no auto play options, only "open" which then opens the files on the disc. i've set auto play to run yet it doesn't. Before this started, today, i couldn't play certain DVD's..got the chug chug sound yet some dvd's worked great.

| Re: DVD player driver
I just checked my DC/DVD entry in Device Manager. It also shows two driver files -- one from Microsoft and one from Sonic Solutions. I don't know why you can't get Auto Play to work properly, but if the drive is making a "chug chug" sound and won't play some DVDs, I would definitely take it back and exchange it.

| Re: DVD player driver
Hi Cal Bear. sorry for that late response. i guess you're right..take it back. i do have DVD option under control panel. spoke HP here today...say it's software issue and advised me to download AutoPlay repair tool...but it stops working! the tool i mean. so now i have to go to computerand click on drive in order to see whats in drive...then i can only open, not run them ( software discs). Video, have to open media player and click play from within media player. very frustrated. thanks for your advice. regards sean "Cal Bear '66" wrote: > I just checked my DC/DVD entry in Device Manager.

| Re: DVD player driver Hi, since I wrote my question, I did the uninstall of my cd-rom and restarted the computer and got the following message:"the installation of your device could not be completed. The installation of ATAPI DVD DH16W1P ATA device failed. If you know thmanufaturer, contact them with help of installing this device." then I went back to 'device manager' and there are both my drives listed, the internal one above and my external one as well. So I went back to the little window where you can try and upgrade or reslove this problem and that's when the error 39 message showed up again. I have been to the first 2 web links you sent, will try the 3rd one now. I have found another site that might help, I am trying it now, and that is to enter the 'value' for each driver, 1 for CD-R,2 for CD-RW, or 3 for standard CD-Rom that is not writable, do you know about this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316529/EN-US Eleonore "Spirit" wrote: > The first link here is also for error 39. > > You can no longer access the CD drive or the DVD drive, or you receive an error message after > > you remove a CD recording program or a DVD recording program in Windows XP: "error code 31" > > http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;314060 > > The CD drive or the DVD drive does not work as expected after you upgrade a computer to Windows Vista > > http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/929461 > > When you insert a CD or a DVD, Windows Vista may not recognize the disc > > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939052/en-us > > "Eleonore" <Eleonore@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:506F535B-E3FB-46F4-877D-86C1FDF984C4@microsoft.com... > > > Hi, could I do the uninstall for my cd-rom and restart, would that solve the > > problem of error# 39? > > > > "Cal Bear '66" wrote: > > > >> You can uninstall the DVD drive in Device Manager and reboot.

I forgot to mention that I can open and close the trays of either drive, can insert a disk, but nothing happens, it's like they are on a seperate power system, not connected to the computer,Windows vista.
