Here's something I'm sure will be very easy to overcome. I have an ASUS Rogue happily running Windows 10. I've enough of the Mac's.
Inserting a Disk into the DVD-ROM drive at times will work in the sense that it reads the contents. Other times it will not show up on the Windows Explorer at all.
When it does show up & I try to format that Disk, Windows Explorer freezes, the icons disappear on the bottom of the Taskbar and presto, I have to force down the computer with the Power Button.
I've tried an external ASUS DVD-ROM and I've seen that freeze up everything also but not as often as the Internal Drive. I've tried CD's and DVD's and have the same fun results with both.
I've uninstalled the Drivers for the DVD-ROM from the Device Manager and rehooted, I mean rebooted and no changes. As to updating from the Device Manager, that is about as useless as things gets for very very seldom does one get an update from there.
I've checked the ASUS site for updates but nothing is even listed there. While I go and get a bowl of custard to eat, has anyone else enjoyed this problem before and if so, is it something that can be overcome or does one have to live in despair because of it.
Please, should it be that any cannot see this post, do contact me at once. Thank you.
