Will this product work to clean the dvd/cd player on a computer? Specifically...an HP Touchsmart (one drive)

I purchased it for my car CD player and it worked like a charm. Have not tried it in a PC.

The instructions don't mention computers by specific brand but do offer additional notes for cleaning a computer CD-ROM drive in the event that the Lens Cleaner doesn't automatically start the cleaning process (i.e., click on the the computer icon on the main screen, select CD-ROM drive or CD-Player option and press "Play.") Tech support is 800-377-5887 or techsupport@maxell.com.

I did remark that it did not do a good job in cleaning up the dust on my PC's keyboard. As to your query, I just now used it to suck up the dust on the vents of my HP desktop. It worked well enough for a $10 gadget - marginal but at least I can use it for something now. Keep in mind that getting the thing to work at all is not any easy task - that it requires some ingenuity. I don't have a Playstation to try it out on so that I cannot give you an exact response.

This will not fix mechanical errors such as a defective laser, the gears in the CD drive, or another mechanical problem. It will however clean dust off of the laser pretty well. Ive had this since owning one of the old model xbox 360s and its worked fine for me. I recommend using it atleast once a month to keep debris clear.

Mr., Miss, or Ms? To answer your question, I have used the disk cleaner in all my machines and so far so good. I also have an older DVD player plus an older DVD recorder plus my Blu-Ray and I have cleaned all of them OK. with the disk cleaner in question. My hobby is seeing and collecting movies so I use my machines many hours a month. The disk cleaner did a super job on all of them and restored them back to original operating condition. I cannot guaranty it will work on your machine but it did work on all mine. "RAF"

I would assume yes. I used it for DVD cleaning. However. I cleaned approx 10 dvd's and it malfunctioned. The wheels just continually spin and it is not cleaning any longer. I my self was disappointed.

The CD 340 gives instructions on the disc. Then you play through the cleaning track. It took using the cleaning disc two times to fix my problem but it did.

I used the phillips brand on mine and it fixed up my problems. If your problem is just a dirty lens this should help. Make sure your cd is unscratched when before and after testing. These are good to use on your home cd and dvd players as well, including computer drives.

yes just as long as the cd player has an eject button this lens cleaner is the best one I've ever used!

I've used mine on my iPad, our LED television, my reading glasses, and on our iMac computer. They do a great job of removing smudges, oily fingerprints, etc. They are not a wet wiper, so they would not remove things like dried food splatters.

Yes, this product actually works very well - I have removed surface scratches from both DVDs and CDs. I wore out my first polishing wheel after repairing perhaps 3 dozen disks that were mine, or that I checked out at the library. If the disk is deeply scratched or gouged, however, this will not fix it - nothing will. In order to work, the scratch can only be deep enough that it can be polished off so you have a smooth surface. You can, and I have several times, run a DVD disk through the machine more than once. I ran one disk through it 4 times before it would play. I recommend this product.BruceInTexas, retired engineer Yes, this product actually works very well - I have removed surface scratches from both DVDs and CDs.

I think I know what you are asking here.You wanna know if this product will even work if it isnt reading your audio discs,right? When you put a disc in and close the tray does the machine TRY to read the disc? Do you hear it spinning? If so,this will probably work for you.If it doesnt even try to read the disc (if you dont hear it spinning) then it probably wont work.Hope this helps!!

I don't see any reason why it shouldn't. The disk cleans the pick-up lens with just air.unlike a regular cd cleaner which touches the lens. The blue ray has air holes in it and when it spins up the air cleans the lens.

WE haven't tried it for that, but I suspect not, and I would not want to experiment. To repair CDs and DVDs, we used a kit specifically for that purpose and it worked. I would imagine that the surface of a car body is not nearly as finely defined as that of a CD, so is much more forgiving of 'scratch fill'.

I use it on music CDs and DVDs, some which have additional digital content and have not had any problems. It may depend on how deep the damage is.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to do anything with DVD drive. It won't play dvd's, cd's I too have a HP Envoy touch that did not come with a DVD/CD drive. I haven't been able to figure it out yet.
