• faulty internal drive, make noise, even when empty

  My internal DVD drive is faulty and continues to make noise as if a disc is stuck in there. The noise stops when the computer goes into mode "Eve". It is an iMac 2007 and probably not worth the cost of a repair. Is it possible to stop the noise by turning off the player or eject it somehow from the hardware list. The computer works perfectly in all other aspects. I guess I could learn to live with the noise, but would rather not if someone out there has a solution. Thank you

  You can always buy an optical drive of the correct specification of several sellers &

  have one put in, or use an online guide to replace the component yourself.

  Identify the exact model of guidance to see what is involved in the restoration of the iMac.

  • iMac repair guide intel - iFixit:

  https://www.iFixit.com/device/iMac_Intel

  One of the online sellers whose inventory likely includes an optical replacement

  Reader SuperDrive equivalent for the iMac (intel) would be OWC macsales. They also have

  some DIY video guides to see how to make various repairs. Generally a little

  additional tools would be needed. While the iMac is open for the replacement of this

  part, is an opportunity for the battery of the clock to be replaced as well. Maybe even

  drive hard replace; hard disk rotation is probably rather worn.

  So, it could be a great DIY project, if you went into it knowingly, with the right parts,

  tools and patience. Lets have a second machine to check details

  the online repair process; guides and video to help.

  In any case...

  Good luck & happy computing!

• Qosmio E10 is slow and HARD drive makes noise constantly

  Hi people

  I also have a toshiba qosmio e10 notebook. I had problems with it as well lately.

  First it started with a slow start, and then at some point I started having error messeges.
  When I called the toshiba Helpline advises him to do a check disk. I did this and the problem is still involved.

  Now also the hard drive constantly makes noise, but once the computer was successfully loaded its usually very well, it's just starting. A similar thing experience?
  What is the best thing to do?

  I'm thinking of replacin the hard drive.
  Any help will be appreciated. thanx

  Hello

  The check disk (HARD drive) will not solve all problems, but this tool report some errors and problems with the HARD disk.

  Several months ago I noticed something similar on my laptop.
  Two days after my 3 years old HDD was dead. It was just a head crash.

• M30X MultiDrive won't burn a DVD from Windows Movie Maker

  Hello

  My MultiDrive M30x will not burn the DVD from Windows Movie Maker and other applications.

  I also had problems with burning CDs (unbranded) of Windows XP, built in utility.

  The multidrive has problems with cheaper brand discs?

  Just to note,
  The laptop was to support guys three times until various issues.
  (1) the hard drive failed.
  (2) the multidrive has failed.
  (3) the motherboard replaced, due to power outages, it would not charge the battery, or recognize that the AC adapter is plugged.

  Note: The hard drive, not the fan made the most noise in mine!

  Thank you

  Hello

  As far as I know (i.e. pre-installed burning software Save now, drag-and - drop) disabled the option of Windows XP burning. In this case if you want to use the Movie Maker or Windows media player burning option, you need to activate this possibility.
  Please, go to the properties of the drivers (right click). Please select the recording tab. CD recording option on this drive must be marked.
  I use the software Nero burning and in my opinion he of one of the best burning programs. In addition, you should try different manufacturers CD/DVD because some CD and DVD is not compatible with some readers. Check the TDK CD and DVD. I never had no problem with these media.

  Best regards

  Open the verification of cases, for the noise to

  Use a rod of wood dry to stop the fan for a few seconds.  If the noise goes away, then you have found the problem.  Wrap a piece of paper, so you can use it as a megaphone.

  Hi Yonasan AkivaBen Avraham

  I suggest you try uninstalling and reinstalling the audio drivers. Follow the steps to check the audio drivers in Device Manager:

  a. click Startand then click Control Panel.

  b. click system and Maintenance, click Systemand then click on Device Manager.
  Note If Control Panel is in Classic view, double-click System, and then click Device Manager.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  c. in Device Manager, expand sound, video and game controllers. Now you can right click on the listed audio driver. Here, you will get all the option to update or install/uninstall the drivers. Click Uninstall.
  Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

  d. restart the computer. This will allow the computer automatically detects drivers for devices on the computer restarts.

  Check out the link below to update the drivers and check.

  You have disk 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.

  Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

  Brand of the CD or DVD drive can also be the problem. Low quality (cheap brands) are always problematic.

  CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
  tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

  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

  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
