• CD/DVD drive does not read discs on Equium A100

  My cd/dvd drive does not read any discs be it, white, written or commercially written. It opens and closes and is light to show that he is working on. Device Manager indicates that the device is functioning properly.

  Tried the update of drivers, no update available. Tried restoring the system back 1 day and 1 week and 1 month, then and still the problem cannot be corrected. When I put a cd/dvd in the drive and try to access it, it says: D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error.

  Can someone help me I tried everything my friends and I can think, or is it better to send just to toshiba warranty.

  If the solution proposed by James will not help, you should try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager.
  After phone restart the operating system will recognize and initialize the disk again.

• The CD/DVD drive does not read discs

  Hi, I have a COMPAQ Presario CQ40 with optiarc DVD RW AD - 7561 ATA Device driver, recently the drive does not work properly. It can read and burn the disc, that I already used, but when it's a new (disc white) it does not read the disc.  It has an error message "make sure that the disc uses a format windows recognizes. If the drive is not formatted, you must format it before you use it. "the disc is the format that would recognize the system.  I tried to uninstall the drivers and reinstalled from the Device Manager, but nothing works, tried too much microsoft fixit, always the same.  Hope that there is another work around here... Thank you...

  Have you tried using other burning software?

• CD drive does not read discs, can not update "multimedia controller" in Device Manager

  Hello, I tried to get my CD drive to read CDs and DVDs and we tried the update driver software.

  It says my driver "matshita dvd ram uj 850 s ATA device ' is up-to-date, but I see no specific driver CD, but no yellow exclamation point in" readers of CD-ROM/DVD-Rom ".

  The only thing with a yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager is in "other devices" and is called "multimedia controller".

  When I try to update this device it says

  "windows driver not found software for your device.

  I tried to uninstall the driver and then restart, but he still has the exclamation yellow on restart.

  I have a sony VAIO pcg8w1m with windows 7 ultimate.
  Does anyone know which specific driver, I'm looking or if something can be a problem?
  Someone at - it other ideas I could try? Thanks for reading this!

  OK, for the problem with the CD of music sometimes having "exclusive mode" active "blocks" audio CD so try disabling the "exclusive mode":

  Right click on the speaker icon in the Notification area of the taskbar > playback devices > then under "Playback" tab, click on "Speakers" (or the default unit) > properties > advanced > remove the check mark in front of "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" > OK

  For the "unknown device" can you, in Device Manager, right click on the "unknown device" and "Uninstall" the device and restart the computer and let Windows redetect the device.

  The device still presents itself as an "unknown device"?

  Hello

  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 check the cables
  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 system manufacturer
  and the manufacturer of the 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.

  Hello

  I guess the discs not all burnt gift? t working in this player.
  I know that not all media work on all players. In the manual, you should find a list of tested and good work supports.
  I recommend that you test the CD and DVD that is recommended in the user's manual.

• SD-2212 drive does not read some DVD - Satellite 1410

  Hello every1,
  I have the Satellite 1410 604 for more than 2 years, with player combo mentioned above...
  It serves me right, except that it does not read certain types of dvd media, and I use only high quality DVD Verbatim...
  It happens that in the last months. It is not my main computer but it's to use in my house, and it really bothers me when my sister or father takes the new A60 Pro satellite on the road (its battery is better), I can't use last discs on it. So if there is a cause of upgrade, firmware I can't find on this site...

  Thanks in advance...

  Hello

  I don t think that the firmware update will solve this problem because this pilot acknowledged this DVD some time ago.
  In addition, I put t found any firmware of this drive on the Toshiba site.

  But check if the disk by removing the procedure will solve this problem. So why go to Device Manager and remove the disc. After again starting the operating system should recognize the drive again

  Good bye

• 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.

• Satellite L500-13D-CD/DVD drive does not read CD

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite l500-137 laptop with vista sp2.
  There is a cd writes that my dvd drive would not read, the driver can read other CDs & DVDs well.
  who says cd's seems to be fine as it can become red from the other computer.

  any suggestions?

  * Thanks to *.

  Hello

  That means only one disc can be read from your laptop and all other disks can be read properly? Well, in my opinion, it could be a disc problem, maybe it's striped s and so it can t be read to all readers.

  In your case, I would try to clean the lens of your CD/DVD drive. Therefore, you can use a microfibre cloth.
  Check it!

• Satellite P200-140-CD/DVD drive does not read the CD

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite P200-140. The DVD/CD Player plays all DVDs without problem. However, it does not read CD. A message 'no disc' appears.
  I've updated the drivers, cleaned the lens, completed all the normal tasks.

  Any advise / solutions out there?

  Hello

  Maybe you should try to remove the capital letters and lowerfilters in the registry, because you can often read here in the forum:

  (1) run regedit (Start-Run-Regedit online online)
  2) navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
  (3) in the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key and delete the key "LowerFilters".
  (4) restart.

  I hope this works for you too! :)

• Satellite A40: Drive does not read CD but DVD

  I have a SatA40 (now almost 3 years ago) and cd/dvd unit does not work well, the cd cannot read or write, but the dvd reads all my DVDs.

  Does anyone have an idea why we don't have, and the other does not? (Everyone I mention that he thinks it's strange - thought if does not work the other shouldn't be.)

  Hello

  You sounds of description as the lens of the drive cannot calibrate in the right position.
  Usually before the player will read or write the middle of what the lens must be calibrated.
  In you case the lens can not calibrate and that's why the drive does not recognize the CD.

  Usually in this case, the drive must be replaced.
  But maybe you are a lucky man. Try to clean the lens gently. But be careful

• Tecra M2 - DVD/CD drive does not read

  I have a Tecra M2 with the DVD Rom/CD burner.

  When a disc is inserted, it runs but does not read - light stays on. After a few eject and reinsert the cycles he usually manages to play the disc. Long the standing problem which affects different DVD and CD discs. Have used a disc cleaner to clean lens.

  Does anyone know if this is likely a faulty hardware or a driver problem?

  Thank you

  Search on the Toshiba site.
  For the Tecra M2 is updated firmware for some ODD available s. To check if you have such a unit.

  In addition, I would like to make a BIOS update. This you can also find on the Web from Toshiba site
