• Satellite L30: reader will not read CDs or DVDs

  In the evening, I was recently testing on various operating systems on my laptop and eventually decided to return to Windows Pro.
  It was working fine until a couple of days, but then the hard drive started making a rattling noise, like R/RW head stuck.

  Now it will not read CDs or DVDs, can someone please help and tell me if it's a failure of the software or hardware, and the best way to fix it?

  Hello

  The drive problems are not uncommon and may still occur.
  For the most part the purpose of calibration training does not work correctly.
  The objective must be calibrated in the correct position until the player will read or write to the media.
  This fault is not reperable and especially the drive needs to be replaced!

• Combo CDR/DVD SDR2102 drive will not read CDs or DVDs

  Hello

  I have a mobile Ergo Elite 4.
  The hard drive crashed and I bought a new one.
  I have loaded windows XP by using a boot disk but cannot get the Toshiba SDR2102 CDR/DVD combo drive to work. I had to load windows on via USB
  using a USB port.

  I can see the drive in windows Explorer, but it will not read the CD or DVD.
  I looked in the Device Manager, and it came with no warning mark.
  I tried deleteting, re-startup and he's back in the Device Manager.

  I'm trying to find a better driver, but it says that I use the best driver.
  I tried various Web sites using sand everywhere tells me that I do not need a driver for this drive.
  What I do, it seems as if the Combo driver is recognized but it will not be read whatever it is inserted, he said only: insert the disc.

  Does anyone know what I can try? or know where I can get drivers for it or software to test the drive?

  any help would be appreciated. :-(

  Hello

  You n t need a special driver for the CD/DVD drive.
  CD/DVD players use the current Microsoft drivers already contained in the Windows operating system.

  In my opinion, you should first test different types of media. Please note that not all CD or DVD s are compatible. Distribute readers can't handle bad quality mediums.

  But we shouldn't t rule out a risk of hardware malfunction.
  Disk failure and you may wish to contact your dealer for a replacement.

  All the other standard size DVD, CD works good about it. Its complex and as well as irritating.

  Any suggestions?
  Why his messedup?

  Seems that the lens cannot read this miniDVD s. Maybe cannot calibrate the lens of the drive and the miniDVD is so illegible.
  Try the sascha. Maybe you are a lucky man, and it works.
  If this is not the case, try to remove the drive physically from the laptop. Restart the laptop without the drive. The BIOS and Windows shouldn't t recognizes the drive.
  Then stops again, put the drive in the notebook and the startup of the device.
  The laptop should recognize the drive and must indicate the firmware again.

  I don't know if this will help but it s attemptable m

• Satellite L30 - DVD player will not read CD - R / CD - RW

  I have a L30 with a carpet * a ram drive uj-850 s DVD. He reads prerecorded CDs/DVDs, but during the insertion of a CD - R or CD - RW with files that have been burned on the disc it comes tells me that I have inserted a blank disc.

  Also does not burn a disk (tried to burn files to Itunes and it seems to work but the disc was blank when I tried to read).

  I read on another forum that I should delete the upper & lower registry values filters in the folder {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} in the registry, which I think could be the wrong advice to follow.

  I deleted the upper part and then realized the lesser wasn't there anyway - it has not solved the problem and I think that it may have caused instability as I have weird errors with different applications since then.

  Help, please.

  > removed the upper part and then realized the lesser wasn't there anyway - it has not solved the problem and I think that it may have caused instability as I have weird errors with different applications since then.

  Well well... from my personal experiences, the results of burning depends on different factors.
  First that not all CD and DVD is cared for and compatible. You need to test different manufacturers!

  Second, the different burning pre-installed applications could have a negative influence on the burning process! I only use Nero and AI? m very happy!
  Last but not less dysfunction of CD/DVD could cause this problem.

  SO what to do?  :| First check if other media works properly and try to burn with Nero. It would also be desirable to renew the operating system to avoid errors in program!

  Good luck

• Equium A100-027: CD/DVD player will not read the CD data/music

  He'll read/play commercial DVDs, but music no commercial and data CD...

  I tried a new cd of norton, but do not read this and have tried other commercial programs but no luck... just click

  the same thing with music, tried I don't know how many discs, same result... help me please!

  Have you ever tried this method?

  Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.

  Then start the registry (regedit) and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Then restart your laptop, and after that windows installs it again. Perhaps this may solve your problem.
