So I just replaced my dvd drive in my laptop with a bluray drive the problem is that it reads dvd's but it will not read bluray and I'm not sure why it won't read bluray's. Am I missing a peice of software to make it work. My laptop is a acer aspire v3-571 I belive I don't have it with me right now but I will confirm the model # later when I get off of work. But please if any one can help me out with this issue that would be greatly appreciated I just spent $60 on a bluray drive and I don't want it to be a waste of money.

Or purchase a full player like PowerDVD.
