April 24, 20215 yr Have any of the Windows 10 OS wizards here have any idea why Windows 10 OS build 19042.928 64-bit has topped all of a sudden from recognising music or driver CDs or data DVDs when inserted in the PCs DVD drive? I'd appreciate any help. Rick Almeida
April 25, 20215 yr Commercial Member So it doesn't recognize anything in that drive? When you boot into the UEFI setup can it see something in the drive? Cheers! Luke Kolin I make simFDR, the most advanced flight data recorder for FSX, Prepar3D and X-Plane.
April 25, 20215 yr Author Thanks for the reply, Luke.I thought for a minute despite many views, I was going to make no headway here. Be it a data burned DVD-R, or a commercial music CD, it does not even show the disc title under the DVD drive icon in My Computer. Clicking on it just makes it eject the disc. I'll try the UEFI boot-up. My first instinct was maybe the drive had gone kaput, but never had a Samsung OEM drive go pear-shaped before. Rick Almeida

April 27, 20215 yr Author Thanks a lot for that confirmation, Luke. More or less, as I had suspected. That will teach me to have this infallible belief that optical drives are faultless😁 Rick Almeida
