marmoo Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) Hi All Little confused by something which is annoying the F*** out of me Built a New PC last week and all is running fine except one small thing On Boot up and when I leave the computer for a period of time (say 2 hours max) the Blu Ray DVD Drive stops recognising disc's It only does it occasionally and I find when i open up the disc drive tray and then close the disc drive tray again with the same disc, it recognises it again - very confused - seems like when computer is in dormant state it encounters the problem All Drivers fully up to date Blu Ray DVD drive is an LG CH10 model - Drivers / software are Cyberlink (disc install) Here are full system spec's in case they have any bearing Windows 7 Home Edition (Retail not OEM) 64 bit version Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3-B3 iP67 Socket 1155 7.1 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard i7 2600k 3.4Ghz 3 x G-Skill 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz Ripjaws Memory Module CL9 (9-9-9-24) 1.5V Corsair TX 650W PSU 1TB HD (Samsung) Gainward GTX 580 Phantom Edition 1536MB GDDR5 Dual DVI HDMI PCI-E Graphics Any help greatly appreciated Edited September 3, 2011 by marmoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf68k Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Might be a bad drive. Either RMA it to who ever you got it from (first choice) or contact the maker to get a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmoo Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 I was thinking that myself I have read a couple of forums which have mentioned conflicts between Blu Ray and Windows 7 but I find it hard to believe - I would think Blu Ray is perfect for a platform like Windows 7 Before I contact LG support I think I might once again delete the Driver and open up the case and reset it all but I have had a good look and all is fine very confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf68k Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Shouldn't be any drivers that need to be installed. At least not as far as Windows being able to read DVDs or CDs from that drive. Blu-ray discs might be different but I don't see how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmoo Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Yep sorry, no drivers, just Blu Ray software suite etc Gonna remove that 1st - might be causing a conflict but not sure - been away from home so haven't had a chance yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf68k Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) Maybe this will help http://lifehacker.com/5806252/how-can-i-pl...-on-my-computer Cliff notes: It seems short of using CyberLink PowerDVD you'll have to rip the disc to a MKV file Edited September 6, 2011 by Wolf68k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
