Question

Recommended Posts

Do you have a recovery partition on your PC? Some OEMs will have that partition on your hard drive. On my HP, I can launch Recovery Manager after a nornal boot up, click on advanced options and then do a multitude of actions including:

 

hardware driver re-installation

Microsoft system restore

System Recovery

etc..

 

 

Some OEMs will also have the recovery option available when your boot such as F11 or a different Fx key to access the recovery partition.

 

Also, try going back to a known good "system checkpoint" under a normal boot via Repair Windows using the restore process. Click choose different restore point and then click show restore points older than 5 days. Mine go back 2 months but they may vary depending on how much space is being set aside for this process.

Go into your calender of restore points and pick a restore point before all of the problems started. If that works then you'll have to reinstall updates and programs installed after that date. Sometimes a restore point process will work better if you boot up in safe mode.

 

You might want to backup any critical data before you start this process just in case something goes really bad.

Something is blocking the driver from loading. Do you have any of the following software installed? iTunes, ZTUNE or Nero ----Please answer this question.

 

 

Also try this:

 

Go to the device manager and click the plus sign before DC/DVD drive, right mouse click and uninstall the drive. Then click the plus sign of ide ATA/ATAPI controllers and uninstall the secondary IDE channel. Reboot you system twice and the OS should reinstall the drivers.

Error is cdr4 driver not found by windows

Yellow exclamation point is there beside dvd entry in device manager

Drive is not shown in Computer entry with C drive

Drive is noticed in bios

Hope this answerrs all questions because that is all I have

Thks

 

1) Did you try Dave fix? The first one -drive not recognized by Windows. If you did and it doesn't work, then the problem is with your hardware and not the Roxio program.

2) Is this an internal drive/burner?

3)What brand?

4)Did you check the connections?

5)Did the drive come with an installation disc? Have you tried that?

6) Are you using AVG free?

7) What operating system? XP or Vista?

 

Eight questions; I hope we get 8 answers; none of them with cdr4 in them.

cannot find cdr4 drivers --- this is the error message .If I choose ask me later to install drivers then it puts a yellow marker on the dvd entry in device manager/.

 

Pls read over my answers , all answers are there you need to know?

You are not answering anything. All you do is keep repeating cdr4, cdr4…

 

Dave asked you to do 3 things, it appears you did nothing. He then asked for more details and you brush it off.

 

If you don’t answer, people will stop asking…
