Laptop Dell C610 cdrw/dvdrom

[Guest CandyMan]

My computer crashed recently and now my cdrw/dvdrom does not work properly i

can't watch movies and the tray door pops opens up by its self at random are

there any drivers that i can download or any free software that will resolve

my problem.

I am kind of new to the community so i hope i am asking this question

correctly? Any help would be appreciated

Thank You

check at dell's website, look for downloads for your compute, it should

have all the drivers you need

You were referred to a Media Player group when you posted this same

question this morning.

- How did your "computer crash"?

 

- What do *you* mean by crash?

 

- Did you have to install the OS and all applications anew?

 

- What does your CD/DVD drive do in Windows XP?

 

- What version of Windows XP?

 

- What service pack for Windows XP?

 

- Have you installed all the available drivers and software that originally

came with your Dell from the provided restoration CDs/partition?

 

- What about downloading the latest from the Dell Support site given the

service tag (or just the model) of your Dell?

What caused the crash?

 

Try reseating the drive cable.

 

If that doesn't help, do you have another computer you can try the drive in?

 

Can you try a drive from another computer in this one?
