    I have a Satellite L30-113. Recently my driver failed for my dvd player, until I was able to install a few things and burn CDs and DVDs. Now, I can't record CDs or DVDs.

    I uninstalled the driver and restarted my computer and it reinstalled the same as that which does not once again. I am a driver update search and xp tells me that the driver is up-to-date. I checked the Toshiba updates with none of these updates for CD/DVD ROM.

  • Cannot burn CDs on Satellite Pro L10

    I have a Satellite Pro L10 and impossible to copy data files to DVD/CD player. I go through the process by using the Editorial Assistant and it appears to download the files, but finishes with a screen that says "cannot complete the CD Writing Wizard" and ejects the CD. The CD is empty, but the displayed size went from 720 mB to 647 mB of free space and total size.

    This was not always the case, because it worked when I first got the L10. The L10 has Windows XP

    Any ideas please?

    Hello

    Are you trying to burn the files using clean combustion of Windows?

    Hmmm I put t like this feature of Microsoft. I use a 3rd party software to burn data and files on CD or DVD.
    It s Nero burning ROM.
    This tool is really nice and I have not noticed problems using this software.
    You should also test this tool and I'm sure that you will be very satisfied.

    But back to the error message that appeared during the burning process;
    After a lengthy investigation on Microsoft pages, I found very useful knowledge base article Microsoft and information;
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/324129

    The error messageError: cannot complete the wizard of CD writing ofmay occur if the IMAPI CD Burner service is shut down. To resolve this problem, make sure that the service is running and that it has not been arrested. By default, the service is set to manual. Start the IMAPI CD Burner service and then test it by writing on a CD - R or a CD - RW. If the service is running, you may need to set the service to automatic if it does not start in manual mode.

    To set the service to automatic, follow these steps:
    1. click on start, run, type services.msc /s in the Open box, and then click OK.
    2. double-click on IMAPI CD - Burning COM Service.
    3. under the service status, click Start.
    4. try to write data to a CD.

    Good luck

  • Satellite M70-173 - cannot burn CDs or DVDs

    Hello

    I have an old but expensive laptop (Satellite M70-173). The CD/DVD drive is a carpet * a UJ - 841 s and can currently only read DVDs and CDs
    I have Nero installed 8.3.7.1, but it does not allow me to burn any DVD or CD
    I have all the updates that are installed for Nero, have also removed the "upper and lower limits" in the registry.

    It is not a mark of DVD or CD that I have not yet tried, but they all are coasters.

    I have the following options:

    1. try to set the drive - either with the technical assistance of the forum or replace the disk, so I decided that it is a hardware error

    2 buy a new laptop - but also like some advise on how to "clone" of the current notebook that I have so many other programs installed that I bought over the years and do not want to lose.

    I made copies pdf of burning errors I can post if necessary.

    Any help is welcome

    Kind regards
    Juan

    Hello!

    > I made copies pdf errors burning I can post if necessary.
    Yes, I think it's a good idea. ;)
    Otherwise it of a bit difficult to help you.

    But what CDs and DVDs you tried to burn? I have good experiences with Verbatim and TDK. Check it!
    And you should burn on a lower speed for CD e. g. 16 x.

    Good bye

    I was given a HP Pavilion a405n, which has Windows XP on it. I've updated most of the drivers already, but it is impossible to update the drivers from CD/DVD. Creation of dvd - rom and HP CD-Writer + 7200. I don't have the recovery disks that accompanies it for updates. Is there a way to get the recovery discs or do I just replace the drivers all together?

  • Satellite A40-231: cannot burn CDs or DVDs

    Hello

    I can play CDs without problem, but I can't write them and DVD. I tried with Windows XP default recorder (by Roxio as he said), Nero and Infra Recorder but still had the same problem. Combustion process begins and finishes without errors with all of this software, but when I check the contents of the CD later, I see that nothing is written there, the CD is just considered as empty, or sometimes seen with 0 MB of available space, 0 MB total space.

    I tried with the CD - r, CD - RW and the DVD but I got the same problem. I have 2 389 MB free in my disk space hard as he is seen by Nero for the ability of the temporary folder that it uses.

    My DVD-R /-RW is recognized by Windows XP without problem and also, I installed the latest firmware from the site Web of Toshiba.

    Here are my specifications:

    Toshiba Satellite A40-231
    Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-R6112 DVD-R /-RW DRIVE Firmware Version: 1333 (latest news on the site Web of Toshiba Driver)
    System dual boot: Windows XP SP2 and Linux Debian Sarge

    Hello

    In the manual of Toshiba, you compatible o is a list and supported the CDs and DVDs.
    You must use these mediums as they are tested and should work correctly.

    Another tip:
    Go to start > run > and start recording with a command regedit
