DVD / CD Drive Problems
I have a Dell Computer with a Samsung CDRW/DVD SN-324S drive. A few weeks
ago it stopped reading CDs. I can open the CD, but it will not show any files. I can pull up the properties and it says the CD is full. Also, I have gone through all the troubleshooter steps, but with no luck. Any ideas? CK |

DVD / CD Drive Problems
My guess would be a registry Permissions error. They seem to be going around.
Locate and click the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Protected Storage System Provider On the Edit menu, click Permissions . Click the registry key for the user that is currently logged on and ensure that Read and Full Control are both set to Allow . Click the Advanced button, ensure that the user that is currently logged on is selected, that Full Control is listed in the Permissions column, and that This Key and Subkeys is listed in the Apply to column. Click to select the Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown here that apply to child objects check box. Click Apply , and then click Yes when you receive a prompt to continue. Click OK , and then click OK again -- Was this post helpful to you? Then click the "Yes" button, below.
