Windows 10 - Problems with LG BH16NS40

Post by Metallifreak »

Hey dudes, need some technical support. Have installed Windows 10 now on my PC, before I had Windows 7. I have an LG BH16NS40 BluRay burner, which worked well. I can see it in BIOS, aswell as on my Eplorer and also in the device. But when I put an disc into the drive, doesn't matter if BR or DVD, nothing happens. Can't read full discs or can't even burn on them. Anybody knows what's wrong?? The drive itselv is fine, so no hardware problem. Have googled alreacy, and it seems there are several problems with Windows 10 and this LG drive, but no solutions. Anybody know how to fix this issue?????

Maybe a dual boot with both Windows (7 and 10) on your pc is possible to fix it ?

Did you perform an in-place upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 or was it a fresh install of Windows 10?

No Mike, I have format my SDD completely, then installed Windows 10 Home Edition from an original DVD.

What about flashing the motherboard BIOS to the latest version?

Have you installed all available Windows Updates as well?

does it show any errors in your Device Manager or Windows system logs?
