HL-DT-ST-DVDRWBD CT30N
Hi there:
I have a Dell Inspiron 5110 with the HL-DT-ST-DVDRWBD CT30N DVDRW. It has been working fine but now all of a sudden, the driver seems to have failed and I can't find out where to update it. I uninstalled it, thinking that when I rebooted the laptop, Windows would automatically search for the driver. It did, but the driver installation failed. How can I reinstall the driver for my DVDRW and get it to work again? Please help!
Sincerely,
Treeheart

What makes you think the driver seems to have failed?
The driver is included in Windows.

If its not an upper filter/lower filter problem then the drive is probably bad.
Your CD drive or DVD drive is missing or is not ... - Microsoft Support

I followed the link above (Microsoft support) and followed the steps for the same problem with Vista (even I got Win 7). Ic deleting de upper and lower filters in the registry. And the problem is fixed (CD/dvd rom drive is back).

I don't know what is the problem you have exactly, it can be a lot, but mine was resolverd following the link posted by SpeedStep replied on 23 Apr 2012 8:42 AM
If you follow that link you'll come on the page of Microsoft suppor. Follow the steps (even when there is mentioned it s for Windows Vista - I run Windows 7 and it worked). In my case I deleted the upper and lower filters in the registry and the problem was fixed (CD/dvd rom drive is back)
