    CD Drive Error


    When I try to play a cd i get the error shown in the video
    I have to right click on the cd drive and click auto play in order to be able to play the cd.
    Please let me know of any possible solutions to the problem,
    thanks.

    That sounds more like a problem with the media player and not a problem with the CD drive.

    Hi 72010,

    Welcome to SevenForums.

    Open Computer > right-click > choose create shortcut
    on desktop > right click shortcut you just created
    choose > properties
    Your path should be:
    E:\

    If it's not:
    click
    searchbox type
    computer management
    click on it
    click on disk management
    scroll down to CD ROM
    right-click on CD-ROM 0
    change drive letter and path
    popup change
    scroll down to E
    click OK
    click OK
    close disk management
