CD RW Drive Problem =(

Recommended Posts

hi guys, been having this problem recently and its inconvenient for me...so any help would

be greatly appreciated :D

Problem: When i insert any kind of CD and use a program to open it, it works perfectly fine (music, videos, etc.). But when I try to open the CD to browse its contents, it doesn't open it to let me see the contents. :(

(The CDs i've been testing are perfectly clean and I've tried browsing their contents on another Laptop, which worked.)

What I Tried: I already looked at device managers to see if everything is fine and it said "This device is working properly." I also tried disabling and enabling it, restarting computer, a ton of different kinds of CDs.

I remember it became like this after i installed Roxio softwares such as Roxio Easy Media Creator 8 and Roxio VideoWave Movie Creator hmmm....maybe that has something to do with it lol?

DVD/CD-ROM drive: TSSTcorp DVD+-RW TS-L632D

I use Dell's Inspiron XPS M1710 (Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition)

Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Thank You!

Autostart or autoplay works perfectly fine, but windows explorer cant browse the contents of the CD.

Like if its a video i'd have to use windows media player to open it. I can't just "double click" the CD Drive and double click the video again. :(
