3.5 floppy (s) and CD problems

I can record and read 3.5 Floppy (s) and CD on my computer (Windows XP), but no other computer can open. In addition, I can not open is made on a different computer. What is the problem with the settings of my or my drivers?

Note: I can open the USB drives and USB external drives without problems on other computers.

These are probably two different problems, at least in regards to the problems reading floppy disks and CDs on your computer.

With respect to the CDs, this happens usually if you use a software that allows you to write several times on a CD as a live CD, brake disc, or Drive Letter Access (DLA).  When you use this 'packet writing' software, you need to "finalize" the CD before it can be read on another computer.  What software do you use to write on your CD?

With respect to the disks, sometimes happens when trying to read on a more recent machine a disk formatted on an old machine. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/140060 and the explanation of Ken Blake here--> http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-files/i-saved-a-file-on-a-35-floppy-in-1996-now-when-i/f2fb3e0f-818c-47d3-bd5a-d2ad37335936 also see my comment later in the same thread.

In regards to your inability to read the floppy and CD on another computer, what operating system is installed on the other computer, this software is used to write CDs on the other computer and what is the brand and model of the computer (how old it is)?

  • Floppy drive and CD players do not Up on my computer in Windows Explorer

    He is a teacher of Windows 7 machine.  Under computer, in Windows Explorer, show my two hard drives; but my floppy drive and CD discs do not show.  Currently, none of the disks has a disc inserted.

    However, if I click on computer, they all appear in the right pane on the devices with removable storage section.  If I double-click on any of the readers, it tells me to insert a disc, so I guess they are recognized.

    Under Tools, Folder Options, view, the option hide readers empty in the computer folder is disabled, so presumably, this isn't the problem.  Curiously, if I put a CD in one of the two drives and a floppy drive in the floppy drive, the CD come listed under the computer however, the floppy drive is still missing!

    How can I get the missing CD and floppy drive will appear under computer all the time, the inserted media or not?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you!

    I know this is a very late response, but I had the same problem recently until I went into 'Organize' > "Folder and Search Options" and under the general tab in the "Navigation Pane" section, I checked the option titled 'Show all files' (this option for some reason any seemed to be solely responsible to hide my floppy drive and CD-ROM/DVD-ROM readers in only the Navigation pane just as you knew) for my own peace of mind I have also checked the option "Automatically extend to the current folder" so that the navigation pane would show the folder in which I was currently reviewing (as it did in Windows XP).

    I hope this helps someone else who has this problem and falls on this thread.

  • GPS, Wifi and Bluetooth problems

    So I have an iPhone 6 running on IOS 9.3.4 and have had problems with the GPS and the strength of wifi connectivity and bluetooth for a while now.

    First of all, the GPS.  It does not work.  When I run the maps or google maps on my device and the input an address the app can give me a written plan, location, but will not show me on a map.  He'll start road to everywhere where I go and tell me to start position, for example, to the North on the road on that I am, but the arrow does not follow me and tell me when the turn or where I am.  Occasionally, he has a message of guidance down with a spinning wheel and then, after a few seconds, disappears.  I tried to reboot my device several times, I have reset the network setting, I reset all of the settings, I backed up my phone, reset it and recovered save him.  Nothing has worked.  I was at my local verizon store and received a 'new' (its definitely refurbished) phone and the problem persists on the new phone.  I reset the phone to factory setting without content, set up as a new phone and tried the cards again, thinking it might be a problem with the back to the top.  It still does not work.  I'm perplexed right now and do not know what to do/try.

    Second, wifi and bluetooth connectivity is terrible.  I can only receive a wireless signal so that in very close proximity with the router.  I tried to different houses/companies and it is the same question.  However, bluetooth is just as bad.  I use headphones wireless, and go to the gym/go for the route with them.  I used to be able to walk around the gym without my phone and have connected the headphones, but now I can't have my phone 2 feet of the appliance without the music being agitated (bad connection).  I'm really irritated that I cannot understand this point and that he can't seem to find a fixed solution online.

    If you have just updated to iOS 9.3.4, which I didn't even know still shone, so maybe it's a bug that comes with the update. However, your problems seem to follow a trend, you can not far from a source of connection and now a signal. It is perhaps because the necessary components for the Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi signal are damaged or defective. Have you dropped or spilled liquid on your iPhone recently?

  • Fields on several Internet sites have been changed in another language. The browser is set to English, and this problem does not occur with Chrome.

    Fields on several Internet sites have been changed in another language. The browser is set to English, and this problem does not occur with Chrome. Specifically, a large part of Tumblr and Facebook menu has been changed in another language (Russian, I think). I tried reinstall Firefox, clear the cache and reset firefox to its default state. None of them helped. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Hey again,

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.

    More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

    I hope this helps!

    I bought my iPhone 5 s by T-Mobile and have 2 months left on the purchase. My phone no longer accepts a new presentation. Apple support ran a diagnostic and said it isn't the phone and that I should replace the cable. This was done and the problem remains. Everyone has to experience this problem? And, if so, what was the problem?

    He likely is the phone, but you do Apple physically inspect it. Send it or take it to the Genius Bar. You can do one or the other of http://getsupport.apple.com.

  • Will there be another windows coming out soon with the floppy drives and DVD players.

    Will there be another Windows coming out soon with the floppy drives and DVD players.

    Hello

    Disks: I don't think so. I always keep 25 floppy disks for Windows 95, should be a few thousand disks for Windows 10. Very, very, very expensive to store files and transport.

    Of DVD: would soon come out, new machines will have 10 Windows (who knows) pre-installed or downloaded. You can always find Windows 10 DVD in some countries where users will still have to use dial-up Modem.

    Hope it makes sense.

  • Satellite L650-1EQ - black screen and overheating problems

    Hello

    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite L650-1EQ.
    A few days ago my laptop was overheated quite often.
    I would like to start playing a video game and the computer could actually turn off after 10 minutes of playing it.

    I realized that this was getting serious so I stopped using my computer to play games and I decided that I need to clean it. However, I was looking for online on how to clean up my computer and then my screen turns white!

    I didn't know what happened and was very scared.
    I turned off the computer.

    The next day I turned on the computer to see if it was good, and the screen was black however the laptop power light comes on and I hear the vents work.

    I turned on the computer and tried to start it again, and the computer started fine.
    The image appeared and the problems disappeared.
    But I knew that something bad was about to come so I took the laptop computer repair technician.

    I told her what happened.
    He has used the vacuum to "clean" the dust of the computer and told me to go back if the computer kept a overheating.

    I restarted the computer again when I came home, and after an hour and a half the computer screen turns white but I don't think that it overheated. : s

    I tried to start the computer and the screen is black, no picture, the only light on is the power one and I hear the vents work. I tried of transformed market but now it just stays as if it were now.

    I tried on another computer for solutions such as the battery and pressing the power button for 2 minutes and other things, but nothing has worked. I don't know what to do so I decided to create a thread to get answers: s

    Hello

    This does not sound very good boyfriend. I'm afraid that there could be some sort of dysfunction material Mr. something like the problems of graphics card or motherboard issue.

    You can try plugging the external monitor to the laptop just to see if something would be visible on 2nd screen.
    But if nothing will appear on the 2nd monitor, I think that the chip of the graphics card died :(

    Of course, this is just my personal opinion and a laptop computer technician must check the laptop to know what part of the laptop could be faulty.

  • AT300-100 - speakers and sound problem

    Hello.

    I bought a Tablet AT300-100 and have problems with the speakers and the sound. I noticed other people online with similar problems.

    Here are the problems:

    -The speakers stop working, and the Tablet needs to be restarted for that stakeholders to work again.
    -The noise increases abruptly volume for a few seconds, then returns to the normal volume.
    -It has no sound when I get a PIN on the lock screen, even if the is set to turn the sound on the lock screen.

    I wonder if this is a bug in the operating system rather than a problem with the hardware of the speaker.
    The operating system is up-to-date. Problems continue regardless of the sound settings.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    > I wonder if this is a bug in the operating system rather than a speaker hardware problem

    By default, the system Android back and try it again
    Usually, if it would be a software related issue, the sound should work correctly after the reset to default settings.

    > If there is a bug in the operating system affecting the speakers, a reset may not work.

    Well, in this case, that you should get in touch with the service of Toshiba to get it checked

  • Re-installation of 98. floppy drive and the CD Player do not work

    Hello
    I loaded 98 in our 3410 CT. 98 is installed, but the system has not picked up on our floppy (usb) and our cd. I know I have to get the drivers here, but how? The cd will not work because it has no driver present as is the case for the floppy drive. The boring bit, is that I have the driver on a separate disk. Any body has any suggestions.

    Hello

    I'm not 100% sure here, but I think you can resolve your situation by enabling legacy mode USB FDD in BIOS (if not already done), and then boot from a drive to floppy BACK/Win9X and then copy the drivers to the HARD disk.

    Try this:

    -Turn on your 3480 but look out for the Toshiba logo!
    -When you see the logo very quickly press the ESC key several times (normally just 1 time will do, but that's if you know just WHEN to press it).
    -You will receive a message saying PRESS F1 key... Do this.
    -You are now in the BIOS. Look for a setting that says something like "Legacy USB FDD mode". Set it to "Enabled".
    -Also look around to make sure that the boot priority is set to FDD as first boot-unit.
    -Save the settings by pressing END, then answer Yes to the question "are you '.
    -To get a bootable BACK / Win9X floppy. Insert into the disk drive and start the machine from him.
    -Now manually copy the floppy drivers (unzip it first!) the floppy drive in a temporary directory on the HARD drive.
    -Copy the drivers (2 versions exist) and the driver on the CD while you're there.
    -Reboot, start Windows and enter the Devicemanager to update the missing drivers from the temp directory.

    TADA!

    Good luck!

  • Satellite L750D - update BIOS 2.1 and its problem

    Hello

    I have little problem. I was downloaded from your website 2.1 BIOS for Toshiba Satellite L750D (PSK32E).

    I have been updating BIOS 2.1 and start the problem with the sound. When I start the game, music or else minutes 2 first sound plays correctly but then it stops without reason. No noise at all. I've been reinstalled op system but the problem is still there.

    Sound works for 2 minutes only then is completely off. Each application to start with sound plays 2 minutes and stop all silent is. I did a probe on my laptop the mother she s a computer portable twin. I have updated bios same problem 2 minutes and then no sound. My OS is win 8 64 pro my laptop mother is with win 7 x 64 premium.

    Two BIOS updated ver 2.1 on L750D and the problem is the same. Please fix the BIOS.

    The BIOS seems to be very old. I was released nearly 1.5 years ago, so to be honest, I doubt that his and BIOS problem.

    I had the similar problem with my other laptop equipped with a Realtek sound card.
    The sound appeared after connection and remove the headphone jack
    But I could solve this latest installation updated audio driver the Realtek driver page.

    But it seems that your Satellite does not support Realtek audio chip but the Conexant audio chip.
    Therefore, the solution could not be useful for you.

    However, I think that you need to update the audio driver. I recommend you google for driver Conexant SmartAudio HD and test the latest version of the driver available.
    On the internet, I find the Conexant SmartAudio HD driver version 8.65.9.51 for Win 7 / 8 Win / Win 8.1
    Not quite sure if this is the latest version, but you can test it.

    To manually update your driver:

    1. go into the Device Manager (right click on my computer, choose manage and then find Device Manager in the left panel)
    2. right click on the device you want to update and choose Update driver software
    3. choose Select the location of the new driver manually and navigate to the folder where you downloaded the driver

    If you encounter this flicker, then the next troubleshooting step is to restore from a backup. If the behavior persists after the restore, then the last step is the factory restore. If after the factory restore and adding no additional content, you see always this problem, then you must make an appointment at the Genius Bar to the nearest Apple store or service provider authorized Apple to have the material examined. If the behavior goes after the factory restore, then sync again your content manually, without using the backup. It seems to me it's corrupted content in the backup.
