Well, you can feel the drive is spinning but no auto start whatsoever.<BR /><BR />When i browse the F: drive, no file are shown. In the device manager, the device is working fine... alledgedly!<BR /><BR />Any thought please?<BR /><BR />Thank you!<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 12 Jul 2007 13:58:16 GMT https://community.sony.si/t5/pcs-accessories/matshita-uj-850s-vgn-fe31z-cannot-read-cd-s/m-p/146875#M72844 frenchy_uk1 2007-07-12T13:58:16Z https://community.sony.si/t5/pcs-accessories/matshita-uj-850s-vgn-fe31z-cannot-read-cd-s/m-p/146876#M72845 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>hi frenchy_uk1 and welcome to club vaio<BR /><BR />There is a firmware update for matshita drive, available at vaio support.<BR /><BR />Read and follow the installation instructions carefully.<BR /><BR /> <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.si/html/@3191CA7235A406D833094BA2DD1CF2FF/images/smilies/011.png" alt=":slight_smile:" title=":slight_smile:" /><BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 12 Jul 2007 17:05:08 GMT https://community.sony.si/t5/pcs-accessories/matshita-uj-850s-vgn-fe31z-cannot-read-cd-s/m-p/146876#M72845 @5528097000005097 2007-07-12T17:05:08Z https://community.sony.si/t5/pcs-accessories/matshita-uj-850s-vgn-fe31z-cannot-read-cd-s/m-p/146877#M72846 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello VAIO-groupie!<BR /><BR />Just tried this update but i am apparently running the latest firmware.<BR />Also, i've just come accross a thread grom July 9th which suggest a full system recovery if no other option.
