    HP G6000: Not Detecting CD-ROM Drive

    Is this a BIOS issue? Tried a working drive but still not detecting. BIOS needed reflashing?

    Maybe the connector on the motherboard is broken?

      Does the drive have power?

        Yes, drive has power; disc also spins up inside.

            I can speak for the wifi issue and you are correct. But I did a reflow of that issue-laptop and all was well. I'll do a reflow on this one and see.

            Thanks fort the tip.

              Usually if reflow goes the woods then the flow is bad..wlan in the dv series usually means gpu..
