Drivers for HP Blu-ray Burner Drive BD-RE Writer UJ-240AF PN# 620721-1C0

[rod_bunny]

Device works as a DVDRom/CDRom, but not a burner.

Device shows up as HP BD MLT UJ240AF in device manager.

Update driver states that the most up to date driver is used. (Default Microsoft 21/06/2006 6.1.7601.23403)

Uninstalling and rebooting comes back as the same.

I have driver recovery disks but there are no drivers on there for the burner.

Cannot find the driver anywhere on the Probook or Elitebook support pages. (Win7 Both 32 & 64 bit and for models either side of the 6560b or 8560w.

Anyone??

Device-drivers for CD/DVD/BluRay drives is included in Windows XP/Vista/7/8/8.1/10.

No additional device-drivers are needed.

What you need is software to collect files to be "burned", and to actually do the "burning".

I use the "Burning Studio 16", which is free software, downloadable from www.ashampoo.com

Note that Version 18 has a purchase price, while Version 16 is free.

Drivers, correct.  (I checked 4 other Win7 PCs and they are using the same driver)

Windows 7 can write to CD natively.  You dont need additional software for that. 

  Right click on file> Send To>Whatever drive your burner is.

or

  When you put a blank disk in it Autoplay prompts you to:

    Burn an audio CD

    Burn files to disc 

Just for a laugh I installed Roxio (that it ships with) and it cant find it either.

I just swapped out burners from 2 other laptops and the same thing is happening - even when it shows as being a DVD RW drive.  Also took the upgrade bay out and put it back in there. (DVD is in a dock and runnning 2 SSDs)

Something else specific to that system is going on....  😞

Thanks

Correct, but additional software can do more, e.g., create an '.ISO' file, copy a CD/DVD, insert longer gaps between tracks when burning an Audio CD, burn multiple copies, and much more.

If you open the Window File Manager, does it show, as below:

???

Where does it "show" ?

Just for giggles, Google-search for "download free SPECCY".

Download, install, and run it, and see what it reports about your hardware.

Tell us.

Run SPECCY in both configurations, and tell us.

Are the 2 SSDs in the computer (1 in standard location & 1 in upgrade bay - replacing the CD/DVD drive), or in the dock?

Does the [free] AShampoo software "find" the CD/DVD hardware?
