• Satellite T130 - 10G: Firefox does not read any video or flash content more

  My Firefox does not read any video or flash content more. And in watching the news of repair troubleshooting/malfunction in Firefox under graphics, he said that "Direct2D activated" and 'WebGL Renderer' have been blocked because of the version of the graphics driver.

  I downloaded a new version on the Toshiba site, but an update of the driver can not find the new version.
  I had briefly solved the problem by installing the new driver from the file but it is not recognized in Device Manager.

  Automatic update through Windows just tells me that the driver is up-to-date.
  I have the Satellite T130 - 10G.

  Would be great if someone could help.

  Thank you!

  Hmmmm... as you know Toshiba doesn't support third party software so I think that your question has nothing to do with Toshiba directly.

  You find the same content with other browsers?

• DVD - RW DVR-K17LF for the Satellite series does not read DVD but only to CD

  Hello

  I have a serious problem with my DVD player.
  He stopped to work. I mean, he's not reading CD but not DVD discs.
  I don't know what the problem is.

  I went on the internet and found no solution.

  Please help me.
  It is not a software problem, because my laptop does not start the DVD, but due to the CD...

  Hello

  The issue could be linked to the anomaly of the player's laser lens.
  Maybe the lens can not handle the DVD because of a physical constraint.
  In most cases, the lens can not calibrate properly and therefore different media would not work.
  In this case there is not much to do in most of the cases that the drive needs to be replaced.

  But maybe you could try to clean the drive s laser lens using a cleaning professional who could be bought from the other computer dealers.
  I don't very well if this will help but it s worth to try m

  PS: Try this:
  Remove the drive from Device Manager, access the registry and remove the filters top and bottom of this key;
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

• After downgrading from Vista Satellite L30-101 does not read DVD

  Hey,.

  Like many people, I didn't like Vista and so returned to the use of Windows XP.

  In doing so, I lost a lot of things like the ability to watch DVDs and sound, most of these problems fixed so easily by downloading the drivers from this site.

  However, even after the DVD driver download I can't read DVDs yet.
  When you try to play through Windows media player I get say error message that I did not have a MPEG-2 decoder, in the section web site help, it suggests where to get one, but you have to play for each other.
  After having one in the first place, I don't think I should buy a new one.

  If anyone has a solution it would be greatly appretiated if they could let me know.

  Thank you

  PS I have a Satellite L30-101

  I think you have a codec problem, but I'm not sure. Maybe you should install the latest version of Media Player and codec Xvid, DivX and AC3. These are free (google it!). Or you can try alternative software, such as WinDVD or PowerDVD, you can try the demo versions.

• Pavilion a6220n does not read DVD but CD ok

  I have a Pavilion a6220n running Windows Vista Home Premium, I intend to upgrade to Windows 7.

  But just in time, I noticed that he doesn't read or write DVD, work of the fine conference.

  I'd like to get this fixed first as in order to move to W7, I will have the DVD player works as it should read the file from W7 ISO located on a DVD-R.

  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver, also deleted down filters, no help.

  I also restored the Factory Default Vista and still it will not read the DVD.

  When I insert the DVD just, it is there and does nothing, when I click on the DVD drive in my computer it ejects the disc saying

  "Please insert a disk in the drive.

  I tried several different discs DVD, DVD - R and DVD - RW, same problem.

  These DVD drives work fine on other computers.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  May be that the DVD drive on your computer has become defective. its not the unheard. Try using an external USB DVD drive to install Windows 7. The DVD inside your system is very easy to replace.

  You really need this post in the Forum of Driver and Vista Hardware. A moderator will move
  There are.

  ================================================

  You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
  Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
  correctly.

  A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

  ------------

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
  Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
  RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
  below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
  cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===============================

  Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
  Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
  do it right.

  Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
  the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
  the correct registry entries for your car.

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
  as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
  the parameters.

• Why Firefox 5 does not read the video tags HTML5?

  Trying to get HTML5 video to work in Firefox 4 and 5. It does not work. I used Fireogg to process the video, but all I get is a large "X" on the screen. The code I am using works in Safari, Opera and Chrome. This has happened for months now and I don't appreciate having to go through hoops to do such a simple thing for Firefox. This is absurd. All other browsers work. Find the code below.

• Since the reinstall drivers, my LG DVD writer does not read DVD

  Original title: LG ELECTRONICS LG GSA T40N Super Multi DVD IDE burner

  I had to re - install the drivers on this drive and then I noticed that there is more to read the DVD. This drive will now appear as a CD-ROM read only by car. When I tried to roll back the driver, the option was not available. Re-installing the drivers did not help and when I went to the LG site the disc has been abandoned and no support was available.

  How can I get this drive to read DVDs? What is the problem with the drivers that I have updated to what makes them to record the album as a CD-ROM drive?

  In the run box, type: regedit, and then click OK

  Navigate to:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E3

  25-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  With the right button of the upper filters button, if necessary, and then click 'remove '. Click on the Yes"" button.

  Click the lower filters key, if present and click 'delete '. Click on the Yes"" button.

  Close the registry editor and restart your computer.
