  • Tecra M4 - DVD player does not recognize discs in Vista

    Hello

    After the installation of Vista my dvd player does not recognize discs!
    No update XP! It was a clean install of Vista.

    I found several links on the upper filter and lower registry entries this entry does not exist in my registry under the CDROM class.

    I tried the XP disk it works fine and recognizes all.
    Drivers are installed correctly no problem in Device Manager is invited.

    So I have no idea how to run it, seems to be a Vista problem

    Could someone help me? I am really frustrated to this topic

    Thanks for your help

    Maybe this helps:

    -Remove the drive from Device Manager CD/DVD.
    -Then access the registry 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}
    -Reboot the laptop

  • New computer: DVD player does not recognize discs

    I have this computer (HP Pavilion) about 3 months ago. It already came with windows 8 when I got it, is not a recent issue of download. When I put a game disc in the DVD drive for installation, it is yet to report an error, simply, it does not recognize the disc. I tried with a DVD film as well, and it's the same thing. I never used the drive before today and was super disappointed that it didn't work. New: what's more relative than all works do not, is that the system does not recognize the potential error.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your request here in the Microsoft Community.

    This would have occurred because of hardware or software related issues. I would like to know some information about this problem so that we can help you further.

    Follow the steps to run the Troubleshooter:

    1. Press Windows + Q on your keyboard to display the bar of charms.
    2. Troubleshooting type, and then click Troubleshooting under settings.
    3. Now, type Hardware Troubleshooter in the option Search .
    4. Click on the convenience store equipment and devices and follow the instructions to run the troubleshooter.

    Method 2:

    Try installing the latest drivers, including drivers for the chipset and check if the problem persists. This is to check if the problem is caused due to any driver related issues or not.

    See the following Microsoft Help article to download and install the drivers.

  • Optiarc DVD + RW AD - 7717H ATA does not recognize discs

    Dell Inspiron N3040 [Amin Note: Service Tag published by policy TOU], o/s Windows 7 SP1.

    I want to assure you that I need to replace the DVD + RW on my Del Inspiron N3040.  I ran the test Hardware diagnosis customize for the CD/DVD device.  It is built in self test (test all the) first hardware test, but the test of trust returns an error message "No. disc or can not read the disc in your drive.  You insert a disc that contains data such as a software installation disc if you want to try again.  You want to try again? "I had inserted the Dell installation disk when I started the test but went ahead and insert another disc to install.  I had the same error 'no disk... ". ».  I ran the test of reading and look for and received the error message "no disk...". ».  The DVD is reported in the BIOS and Windows Explorer.  Windows Explorer displays the DVD in drive D:, but returns the error "insert disk".  Device Manager lists the DVD and properties related material under the general tab, "this device is functioning."  The DVD region is correct, the pilot is reported and the last update is already installed, but the Volumes tab shows "no media".  I deleted the Upperfilter and UpperFilter files in the registry, rebooted and it still does not recognize a disc.

    Is there anything else I should check or do I have to buy a new DVD player?  Please notify.

    Hi sjeffer01,

    I think that you have correctly diagnosed a bad drive. You need to replace it.

    Don't forget that Device Manager checks really just the drivers, not the hardware.

  • Satellite Pro M70: removal of the USB device causes other peripheral USB does not work

    Withdrawal/use of a USB for a USB device causes devices on USB port to get affected.

    Satellite Pro M70-199 (2 GB RAM)
    Windows XP Pro (SP2) with all updates of Windows installed until end of October 2006.
    This laptop has 3 USB ports.
    An Eicon Diva ISDN USB modem is connected to a USB port.

    When certain devices connected to a different USB port are deleted (even if removed safely with "eject" or "remove device safely", it causes the ISDN modem to file either a double channel (64 k + 64 k) ISDN, or for the ISDM modem to disconnect completely.)

    Cause this include any memory stick USB, MP3 player (ipod and creative zen) and so on.

    Do other devices, such as USB external hard drives & sometimes external DVD USB drives, and sonetimes do not produce this problem.

    Is this a known issue?
    If it is a hardware interrupt problem, how to solve it?
    This problem is related to the modem and the laptop?

    As a note, in addition, intermittent (random) times (cannot reproduce all the time, but it happens once or twice a day) when a USB device is accessible it causes the modem USB ISDN to drop a single channel, even if the lights on the modem still show it as it is connected. In this case and the case above, the only way to get the modem ISDN USB running again is physically disconnect and reconnect.

    The reason why it is a crucial issue is that:
    (1) the modem speed is halved or disconnected
    (2) the ISP continues to full rate for a double load connection even if a channel has been dropped.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    I have Satellite M70-159 and I didn t notice any strange problems with the USB ports. I use a few of them as printer, webcam, USB, memory stick, optical mouse, and external HARD drive. The devices are recognized correctly and I always remove without option delete without danger.

    Now I have Vista pre-installed and there is no problem so far. If I understand you right USB ports work fine but there is problem with USB modem only. Am I wrong?
    Also try to contact the producer of modem support. Is perhaps the question like this known and if all goes well, they have a logical explanation.

  • USB does not recognize the Garmin unit. Error "unknown device".

    Recently, addition of windows 7 Home premium stopped detecting my garmin unit. Other USB devices such as my ipod work very well. I was able to detect the Garmin only a few times, he would try to install the drivers, but the drivers would not install. The garmin was working a few weeks ago. Here is a list of what I've tried:

    1. Reset (after all what I try)
    2. Turn off the computer and leave it unplugged overnight
    3. Completely uninstall all the drivers and the software associated with the kid.
    4. manual installation of drivers
    5. uninstall the unknown device and search for new hardware
    6. uninstall the unknown device and do a search for legacy hardware (which produces a device does not not (Code 10) error)
    7. Go back to a restore point before updating the last windows

    Please, any help would be much appreciated. I'm decently computer savvy and have always been able to solve any problems that I have. This one had turn me my wheels for days.

  • USB does not recognize anything

    I have a Toshiba A60-S1662. A USB port. The port has power, drivers are loaded, and it has a brand new XP Pro SP3 OS. The hub will not recognize anything I plug in there. I have assigned driver but refuses to play nice.

    It seems to me that it is hardware problem of your USB port.

    I downloaded the manual of your laptop and there is a slot of your laptop where you can insert "PC Card". PC card can contains the USB port.

  • Satellite L50D-B - faulty DVD drive does not recognize discs

    Bought 2 months ago. The reader agrees not the CD, DVD or anything like that.
    The name of the drive does not appear on the disc and if you double click on the DVD drive icon (even if a disc is inserted) the drawer opens and says please insert a disk. I tried several discs are not the issue.

    So far I got technical support where I bought it.
    They said to do a reinstall I did - with the full drive clean. I tried to update the drivers, but the computer insists on the fact that they are later. If I search my model number on the site of Toshiba driver support he gets rejected, and I have no access to (Toshiba) drivers.

    I checked a few other forums and tried the regedit fix, but which is also irrelevant. If no solution is found (and I've lost hours of my life on this subject) then this laptop is going back for a refund and I'll get one who will perform the simple task of playing a DVD.

    Hello

    Sorry to hear that you have such a stupid problem with your machine. On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
    In my opinion you should not waste your time checking and search for some drivers who probably will not help at all.

    Reinstall the original operating system that you have with your machine and test functionality with the factory settings. If the result is the same contact your reseller or Toshiba service provider directly and ask for help. They can check ODD and Exchange if necessary.
