I installed a new dvd burner into my laptop Window reconize the drive but the drive wont reconize any type disc that is put in it. The drive is a samsung SN-W08B2. I updated the firmware. I dont know what It could be. Could it be a bad burner?
 
Windows recognized it but is it recognized in the bios? I have had that happen where windows sees it but the bios doesn't.
 
Restart the computer and press either F2 or delete to get into your bios. Find the screen that lists you IDE (or sata) devices and make sure the drive is shown. If not there will be a screen that will find all IDE devices. Go to that and let the bios find the drives.
