| 584860 | 2007-08-26 09:46:00 | Every now and then My DVD multidrive vanishes from my Toshiba Satellite Laptop 'My Computer'. If I place a cd or dvd in the drive when it isn't shown it does nothing. If I go into Device Manager and refresh or search for changes sometimes it comes back, sometimes I have to restart. When it is visable it plays and writes perfectly to CD and DVD. This is a pain and starting to become very frustrating. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated. NT. |

In this case the combo drive had been removed & refitted at some earlier stage. The securing screw had been left out & after some use the drive had worked its way out to a point where it was intermitantly loosing contact. A firm push back in was required to fully relocate the conection. |
