This document applies to HP and Compaq desktop computers with Windows Vista. When you try to burn or read a disc, nothing happens or an error stating that the drive cannot be found appears in the CD/DVD burning software. NOTE: If you have upgraded a computer with Windows XP to Vista and the drive was working in XP but is no longer working correctly in Vista, start at Step 3 to remove the upper and lower control filters from the registry (step by step). For more information, you can read the Microsoft support article Optical drives do not work as expected after you upgrade a computer to Windows Vista (in English). Step 1: Does Windows detect the CD or DVD drive? If you can use the CD/DVD drive in Windows but your disc recording software does not work (such as Roxio Creator Basic), then skip to step 4: CD/DVD writing software does not recognize the drive . Otherwise, use Device Manager to reinstall the drive and to find if Windows is able to recognize the drive, as follows: NOTE: Whenever a User Account Control window opens, click Continue .

Gently remove and reinsert the CD drive data cable from the connector on the motherboard. Be very careful to not dislodge other cables. NOTE: If the CD/DVD drive is not original equipment and was recently added, make sure that the drive cable is installed correctly: Make sure that ribbon cable from the drive connects to the proper IDE location on the motherboard (usually the secondary IDE connector). Make sure Master or Slave jumper setting matches the correct Master or Slave cable connector or is set to Cable Select. Figure 6: Jumper Figure 7: Upper IDE cable connectors 1 - Slave connector (middle) 2 - Master connector (end) Replace the cover and plug in the power, keyboard, mouse, and video cables.

The disc drive should now be recognized by Windows. You may need to uninstall your disc recording software, restart the computer, reinstall the CD/DVD writing software, and then restart the computer again if the software no longer recognizes the drive (see next step). Step 4: CD/DVD writing software does not recognize the drive CD/DVD writing software displays messaging that no drive is detected. NOTE: Disc recording software that comes with HP and Compaq computers are made to recognize only the original CD and DVD drives that come with the computer. If you have added a new drive, use the disc burning software that came with the drive or use the native burning capabilities of Vista. Figure 11: Example of message in Roxio Creator Basic 9 Step 4a: Reinstall disc recording software Upgrading the operating system or installing certain types of software can cause other recording software to lose their connection to the drive. Installing software that can burn discs, some music software, and some DVD authoring/decryption software can cause these types of problems. To correct the problem and allow the software to detect the drive again, uninstall the CD recording software, restart the computer, reinstall the disc recording software, and then restart the computer again. NOTE: If the CD/DVD writing software that you use was purchased separately, uninstall the software, restart, and then use its installation discs to install the software, and then restart again. The following procedure is an example of how to correct a No drive detected message in Roxio Creator Basic v9.
