Drive Blu - ray not seen by DV7-3173NR

I put in a movie on my laptop and the DVD stuck for a while, I think above the outside of the envelope of DVD player. After that, power works on the drive, but my computer does not see it. Should I just buy a replacement or is this giong to be a permanent break?

Ouch... it was a hard Jolt? It seems to be damaged more unfortunately, the drive or the SATA connection to the drive to the motherboard. The player is easy to remove.

The drive has a standard SATA connection... a data cable and a power cable and you can try to connect to another computer and see if it works. If it isn't, then this is the drive, and if that's the case I'm afraid, it's the motherboard.

  • Drive Blu - ray Toshiba does not play a Blu - Ray - Qosmio X 70 - A PSPLTE

    Hey guys,.

    I want to play a Blu - Ray disc with my laptop Qosmio X 70A. I think that it should be possible with Toshiba Blu - Ray disc player, but when the software starts, the Blu - Ray does not play. I don't see an image with the label of drive Blu - Ray TOSHIBA. I use the latest version of this tool. I don't think there is a problem with my Blu - Ray Disc player, because I can see the file on the disk with windows Explorer.
    Does anyone have an idea how I can solve the problem?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Message on the screen 'BD - J' drive Blu - Ray - Satellite-P50t-B - 10 K

    First, a comic book, first playing a message saying "the AACS key has expired. You will not be able to listen to some Blu - ray titles. You want to download from the internet now? "Click Yes, it is downloaded, update has been applied, reader closed and restarted."

    BD reinserted, saying "while he was playing a BD - J, mouse operation title and keyboard shortcuts are ineffective" message. Down in Google to find how I was destined to do work the reader saw that keyboard, mouse and touch screen had no effect. Read a few posts that say the arrow keys / directional are supposed to be used to fight against it, but they do nothing when I tried.

    Only things I can do with a BD disc in the drive is: opening and closing; maximize/normalize clicking via the touch screen anywhere on the drive; Right-click with limited function (display power switch and open Information from).

  • Media Smart DVD, not so smart... Will play only some blu ray, not all.

    When I get a computer with a drive blu - ray I expect to read blu ray discs... all of them. It works with some but not all.

    Records, it does not work with, what happens is it will ask me 'Do you want to check updates' and there will be a box to check yes or no. Basically, it will say disc is ready to play, just play to push. Easy right? HELL NO.

    If you check Yes, it will make the symbol of the wait little and the request of updates, then come right away and you still ask once, a circle without end to check updates. If you press n, it will go away, then you have a few options, one is to open the menu and see if there is actually an update... No. no updates it. the other option is to do what he says and push the game because he thinks that the blu ray is ready to play. Once I press play it starting to think and appears as "you want to check for updates" again. It's so frustrating. HEY HP, FIX CELA DUMB TRAP CIRCULAR THAT USED LET ME WATCH BLU RAY.

    And it is a blu - ray disc video block buster movie. Not some copied disk random. So, I know that it is not the disc.

    After spending a lot of time chatting with their service Dept. It seems that this will not work until the next update mediasmart. The technician told me to use Cyberlink power dvd 10 until then, I downloaded the free trial version, and it worked fine. Thus, they have 30 days until my free trial exhausted.  We will have to see.

    This laptop was HP top-of-the-line, i. e. a more expensive. Yet, would gladly ha paid $50-75 more for a model with RW Blu - Ray instead. Sure you want to enjoy the clear picture on the 17.3 "LED HD screen!

    Please don't touch in it. You can also create a set of disks (only once) and keep it safe. My machine (also a dv7-7xxx) needs 5 DVDs to create. The recovery partition together with recovery dics can be used to adjust the machine to the day. Please read this for more information:

  • Drive Blu - ray BDX1200 play is not all content - sometimes!

    Hello

    Sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum, but there is no Blu - ray section.

    I have a UK model BDX1200 Blu - ray that I bought there is a little less than 2 years.
    Recently purchased 2 Blu - ray discs, I found that he would play not all content.

    The player seems to be stuck loading the content with a black screen and generally sound as the drive is being spun over and over again and cannot be read.
    I have to power off the power at the wall outlet to get the drive working again.

    Specifically, I couldn't play most of the peculiarities of The Avengers, although I could get some of them to play by power cycling the player, and the actual film played end.

    In addition, I couldn't play the Hobbit film, although I have power rolled several times, and the disc plays on the machine of a friend. I just tried and the film plays without problem, it's an intermittent thing.

    I checked the firmware updates, but I already have the latest version.

    Anyone has any suggestions, or do you think it is a failure? TIA.

    Hello

    > Also, I couldn't play the Hobbit film, although I have power rolled several times, and the disc plays on the machine of a friend. I just tried and the film plays without problem, it's an intermittent thing.

    Well, I put t think its firmware problem, because the same disc worked properly after reattempt.

    Maybe it s a question of laser lenses? I had some problems with my camera of player playing DVD discs, because the laser lens was dirty. I used special CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean the lens of the laser. Just an idea that you know...

I did my homework... Yes I'm crazy. Why? Because monopolies are dirty sumps of ethics commercial garbage... Now why the hell can't read my Blu - Ray?

    ... I even plunged into "The onion" for responses and is still short came.

    EDIT: I've heard theories of a defective HDMI port in my monitor... My argument is that he has not moved within 4 years, I got it and if something were to go (which he did not), it's nothing that a simple keyboard Cleaner couldn't fix. It has not folded or damaged.

    Then... After all those months of research and everything... everything that...

    My friend and I were dooped last night it STILL didn't work. I watched the HDMI, he given and which was already plugged in and noticed something that I'm stupid to not have noticed before. However, there is no block of interference... Through all his equipment and caught me a HDMI cable with alto and blocks of interference... works.

    Sorry for wasting time! Problem solved!

    Thank you

  • Qosmio PX30t - drive Blu - Ray Toshiba update for Windows 10

    After you download the updated Blu - Ray player for my all in one Px30t Qosmio on Windows 10.
    I read the following on the update page:

    Disc Blu - ray TOSHIBA (32/64 bit)
    Toshiba recommends installing this component which has been updated to support Windows 10
    You must manually uninstall this component of your computer so that this component updated to install.

    -----
    Then I uninstalled the reference software, then after running the update, a surprising window that called for the update
    could not be executed, because the installation program did not find the disk drive in my computer (is or isn't funny?)

    So for now I have not any player ready for Blu - Ray. How could I get a copy of the software Toshiba Blu - Ray disc player that's already installed with my computer?

    Please, I beg you! Could someone help with this 'funny' anomaly cop and provide me with a link to download the appropriate software. (Toshiba for Windows 8.1-10 Blu - Ray disc player).

    I'd really appreciate it!

  • Software disc drive Blu - Ray doesn't play new Blu - Ray!

    Rather disappointed with the Blu - Ray drive at this moment!

    My machine is a Qosmio X 870, running under Windows 7 64-bit. It comes with the Blu - Ray disc player, which so far I've used with my previous purchase - the next Star Trek generation season 2, which presents - and continues--work very well.

    However, the season 3 Blu-Rays that are just out, do any work! As far as I know, the discs are not defective - they are recognized, and the structure of the file is there. I tried multiple disks, but all simply freeze them the player when he tries to load them. The screen is black (flickers sometimes) and unresponsive. There is no error message. As far as I know, this isn't a hardware problem - disks are fine and the laptop drive can play the old blu - ray without problem.

    However, these news do nothing.

    * Solved * -after a lot of searching around, managed to find a software update for the player on the Australian Toshiba site (why doesn't the European site list the Bluray Player among the software updates?).

    This means that if you want to use the Blu - ray Toshiba, you go back to factory settings of s for laptop (including the system Win 8). Next, you must complete an 8.1 Win update. After that you can download Blu - ray Toshiba-power drive package to update (Win 8.1) for the Toshiba UE driver page.
