@Mark3525

Thank you for joining HP Forums.}

I'll be glad to help you 🙂

Apart from the above step, considering you've pretty much done it all (And that's quite impressive),

The only other step is to perform a hardware test using the hardware diagnostic tool: Click here for details.

 

Reply with the results.

Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,

It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.

@Mark3525,

Wisdom is something we all desire, and hindsight is better than forthought.  That said.

Please read this dated article about disappearing features with WIN 10. See #2 for CD/DVD playback.

Download this simple program to burn media.  It's called CDBurnerXP.
