1. send to bed without dessert.

2. start the Registry Editor (start > run > regedit > OK)

In the left pane, navigate to

In the right pane, find the item 'allocatecdroms' this point (in the 'Data' column) value should be 0.  If this isn't the case, right-click, select Edit and make the value 0.

  • Recovery CD/DVD for Satellite Pro 6100 products?

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite Pro 6100 (model number: PS610E-029ZV-BE) second hand and have experienced a non-recoverable accident.

    I need to reinstall it, but as you can guess, I don't have the recovery CD/DVDs. Someone out there has them and could send/ftp a copy?

    I tried with an official windows CD XP Pro, but the key which is on the small sticker on the laptop is not accepted...

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Hi Bruno.

    I recommend you get a new set of CD recovery of an authorized Service Agent. They are not too expensive, I recall.

  • 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.

  • Cannot read and write CD/DVD on Satellite Pro L40 - 17F

    I have problems with my laptop (model: Satellite Pro L40 - 17F Cel - M 540 1.83/1GB/120GB 15.4).
    I have problems with the dvd player. When I got the laptop I managed to install a few things but now - on a two weeks later, I can't read or write CDs or DVDs.

    I checked many solutions to fix but does not work. I uninstalled the driver and restarted my computer and it reinstalled the same as that which does not once again.

    Please help me!

    Hi mate,

    may I ask what fire you´ve applications installed on your machine? I ask for the following reason:

    Several installed burning applications may interfere each other, so could not stop the drive works properly.
    Please, try the following:
    Find somewhere a linux cd or something that you can start from, and then try to start and when the disc turns and starts him CD then you know that your problem is not hardware partners, it s more a problem located somewhere in your Windows operating system.

    If the player wouldn even turn or start the inserted media then you know that the reader has some hardware malfunction and must be replaced.
    I guess you still have a warranty on your machine, if yes, then contact the nearest authorized service provider in your country and tell them your problem.
    They are able to help you and solve this problem.

  • Playing DVDs on Satellite Pro 4600

    Hi - I installed a dvd player for my satellite pro 4600. When I play a dvd movie on my laptop it seems to be very out of sync and "stuttering". can anyone offer advice to help me read DVDs without problem.

    Hi Tommy

    Check please, processes running in the background. If there are some not necessarily ongoing process, it may be responsible for the lower speed of the processor. It may be a virus scan application that analyzes the HARD drive permanently and can be the reason of "stutter" picture on your screen.

    Hello

    I found the news that DVD-ROM Toshiba SD-C2402 and Toshiba SD-R2002 readers are compatible with your model of laptop. If you have info that Toshiba SD-C2732 can also be used you should try it.

    Moreover, in my opinion, it is OK that's just English allowed on this forum and can be understandable for us all.

  • Carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S does not recognize movie DVD on Satellite Pro A100

    I have a portable Satellite Pro A100-PSAAPE.

    Initially the played DVD movies very well, but now it does not recognize DVD movie at all.

    The drive itself is recognized and works very well with recovery DVD and CD-ROM.

    Phone support: they had me reinstall the driver and boot from the recovery DVD. This does not solve the problem. They then said to do a system restore. Tried, but it seems that the previous restorations of system are in themselves unsuccessful and the restoration of the system that has worked has not solved the problem.

    MediaPlayer and Intervideo WinDVD seem to work well, but do not find the DVD in the drive.

    They advise now reinstall me to factory setting, but don't want to build the laptop up to scratch etc, so I'm hoping that there may always be a solution.

    Can anyone help please?

    Thank you

    Best wishes

    Hello

    You understand that you must specify if it is a hardware or software problem.
    Unfortunately, you can find this secret only using recovery DVD (CD).
    Toshiba recovery installation will define the laptop back to the factory settings. In this case you may find whether or not the CD/DVD device is defective.

    If the player will not play the DVD after the reinstallation of the operating system, then chances are that it is a CD/DVD drive error.

    Good bye
