General Computer Support / External DVD Drive Not Recognized
« on: June 02, 2013, 08:09:01 am »
Hello
I have connected a external DVD drive to my MSI U130 notebook. For some reason the drive don't show in My Computer. To be precise, nothing shows the drive is connected when plugged into notebook.
However i have a system restore disc in the drive and it make the noise like it's trying to load when connected to notebook.
1, I have checked Device Manager and scaned.
2, Tried the drive on a PC and laptop, drive works great.
3, Tested the USB ports, all work fine.
Is there anything else i could try? I'd be greatful for any advise.
Thanks
Sam
