It might just be the fact that your laptop has died on you. Or it could be that the screen has quit working and needs to be replaced.It could be an issue with the hard drive.

If you are referring to touch screen feature, you may look into control panel for touch screen settings.
a. Click on Start>select Control Panel.
b. Check if you can find dell touch screen settings applications.
c. If you find one disable the touch feature from there.
If not, you may contact Dell for further support.

Try to download a media codeck pack.

This is not an easy one to deal with if you don't have some things like a boot disk. The error is most likely caused by something that was installed or restored wrong. The best windows option is to use F8 and select last known good config. Then if it starts you can uninstall any software that you added just before this error..IF you cannot do that then you need to be able to boot to a separated disk and use file utilities to remove any programs that might be causing this.

Clean the wall with bleach and then paint the walls with anti-fungal paint.If this room is a bathroom then install an exhaust fan to draw out the moisture when you take a shower.

Some computers do not come with dvd software installed.Do you have a dvd drive installed?If no software for dvd installed you can also use windows media player or realplayer to play dvds.Click start button,control panel then autoplay.Under dvd movie choose player you like to use and click save.Try inserting dvd again to check for playback.

You can change the DVD region four times only, the fourth change will lock on that region permanently.
There may be a firmware upgrade that make your DVD region free, but if you make a mistake or install the wrong firmware upgrade then the DVD will be a piece of junk. You will need to Google search for DVD firmware upgrades for your model DVD.

The best way to view DVDs from other regions is to install a piece of software that defeats the region code. I use a program called DVD-RegionFree from
www.dvdidle.com
There are possibly other programs available, again Google search for them.

are you trying to open dvd files? if yes try other known good dvd if it opens. if not try cleaning you dvd drive with a cleaner.
are you trying to open dvd movies? if yes, have you tried playing dvd in your laptop before in case you haven't tried it yet you need a dvd player program try downloading cyberlink powerdvd. if you have tried it before but not its not working now. check what are the programs that you have installed lately maybe it has a conflict with the dvd player software that you are using try opening the program manually in start menu manually open the dvd movie.

just install cyberlink power dvd then it will stgart playing all kind of video cds and dvds from dvd rom

insert a cd then click rip cd then the laptop will get the music from the cd then you can burn it. Good day and best regards.

Itunes does have digital rights management, which restricts the number of times you can burn the tracks you've downloaded. It's one reason I prefer sites like mp3fiesta.com who don't believe that if you've paid for the track you should be restricted in using it.

To burn music from Itunes you first have to make a playlist of the tracks you want to burn. Select New Playlist on the left, and drag the tracks you want to burn into this new playlist. When you've done that, right click the playlist name and select "burn playlist to disk."

This will ONLY work a finite number of times (I believe currently it's either 3 or 5) after which burning will be disabled for a track, and if that track appears on a playlist you won't be able to burn that playlist either.

wont play DVD..write nothing!!

use this link and click on the CD/DVD section and find the model of your drive. Download and install the driver

check your device manager, you might need to re-install the driver

Is this a software package called digital copy DVD or are you talking about playback of a copied DVD?

To change the Region code on your DVD player, open Control Panel - System - Hardware - Device manager, and click on DVD/CD ROM drives, then right click on the DVD drive and click Properties then click on DVD Region. You can enter a new region and it also shows you how many changes have been made. NOTE you can make only 4 changes and the player will lock permanently on the 4th change. If you want to play DVDs from any region you maybe able to upgrade the firmware to make it region free BUT if you make a mistake or installed the wrong firmware the player will be a piece of junk. The best solution to make the player region free is to install a piece of software (Passkey for DVD) that allows you to play DVDs from any region and Passkey for Blu-ray that allows you to play Blu-rays from any region. There are several available on the Internet but my favourite is DVD-Region Free From: - www.dvdfab.com/products,free.htm
