• Cannot read DVD on Satellite Pro 4600 movies

  Hello

  After a clean install of Win2K on Satellite Pro 4600 I am unable to play any DVD movie. I am able to access the data of the DVD discs. The error message is:

  "There is not Windows 2000 compatible compatible dvd decoder installed on this system."

  I was able to play DVDs when running Windows XP.

  I searched online and on these forums for an update of the software for my DVD player (model SD-C2402) but have been unable to find one. I should be grateful if you would be pointing in the right direction.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I have good experiences with VLC media player. Try to use it.
  Back to your problem. I think you need to MPEG2decoder. Googled around and look for any W2K codec pack. After installing it, I'm sure that everything will work properly and you will be able to watch DVD movies.

  As I wrote already test VLC media player. It's really good.

• Portable Satellite 1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require files avi (codec)

  my laptop satellite S1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require avi (codec) files. l have updated dvd drivers and upgrades of my multimedia player of series 10, but nothing helped. I need emergency aid.

  Hello

  I suggest, that it can not ONLY play .avi files. Am I wrong?
  In this case, you need additional codecs.
  This has nothing to do with the DVD drivers or firmware.
  Check the internet for the codec. I'm sure you will find a lot of info if you want to google a bit.

  Good luck

• Sam L20-183: Pioneer DVD - RW DVR-K16S cannot read DVD

  Hi all!

  I have the Satellite L20-183 with Pioneer DVD - RW DVR-K16S player. This is a new computer, I bought it a week ago. The problem is very strange, after several days of use of the laptop drive does not read or write DVD! The process of reading or writing with the CD is excellent. Who is wrong? I didn't change the firmware or something like that. I don't really know what to do. I can't reinstall the system since the Toshiba Recovery dics's on DVD and it won't start...

  Help, please

  Hi Artur

  Try to remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot your device. After restarting the OS should reinstall the drive. Then try to play the DVD.
  Well, I also read a few topics in the forum a similar car problems and it seems that you are driving can has a calibration problem. In this case, you should replace the disk. I think that it isn't a reason to be angry. Your device is under warranty and all replacements must be done for free.

• Satellite Pro A40: CD-RW/DVD drive cannot read DVD

  Hello

  The reader combo CD-RW/DVD on my Satellite Pro A40 (14 months) stopped reading DVDs (DVD - R or the video, have not tried other types), although it can play DVDs some time. I've cleaned the disc by using a cleaning disc. I think the problem started when I upgraded the OS to WinXP SP1 to SP2, but not sure. I tried CD - R and CD - RW writing and no errors were reported, but the CD that result are unusable (can't be read in the drive, with the LED blinks a few times and then to infinity).

  Someone has an idea how solve this ptoblem? Thank you

  Richard

  Hi Richard,

  I suggest that you go the Device Manager on your laptop and then remove your devive DVD-ROM in the list. When you have done this and then select the option "Find new hardware" and allow Windows XP Reinstall the device and associate the appropriate driver.

  Hello

  My TEAC DV-W24E DVD Player cannot play DVD movies. I try with several original movies, but some work others not.
  It seems that the new DVDs do not work.

  Thanks for help

  Hello!

  I always watch DVDs with VLC media player. With this player, you can also listen to music and he can play many types of files.

  In addition, you should look on the Toshiba website for an update of the firmware. Maybe this could also solve the problem.

• Satellite P100-10U preinstalled Vista cannot read DVD - event code 11

  After the work with my new Toshiba P100-10U system could not read DVD more, it is still able to read CD-Roms! In Device Manager, an exclamation point grey is visible.

  The event log indicates repeatedly "Treiber Der hat einen Controllerfehler auf \Device\CdRom0 found.", something like "the pilot detected error on \Device\CdRom0 controller."

  I installed the system again, but the wrong behavior is still there.
  The system has a carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s drive.

  I already checked the registry entry {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}. There's no UpperFilter or UpperFilter attributes.

  Any idea?

  Thank for Kalle

  Hello

  I m really surprised because such error problem should be resolved after the installation of the new operating system.
  More as you already suggested the filter upstream and downstream in the registry key are mainly responsible for these strange drive problems.

  In any case, I recommend to remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot the laptop. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the CD/DVD drive again. You should see a message as new device has been installed or something like that

  In addition, it would be desirable to use a system like CCleaner repair program. It s freeware!

  Finally, you should check the registry again if the upper and lower filter exists and delete it.
  Don t forget to reboot the device.

  Good luck

  Hello Alex

  I have Satellite P20-303 and the DVD player is not able to read DVD + R/RW format. You have obviously portable US but I think the drive is the same.

  Please check s operating manuals and what formats are readable. As I already said that I think that your player can play just DVD R/RW.
