• Code 39 error with CD/DVD drive on a Satellite A series

  Hello

  Before you begin, my laptop is under Microsoft Windows Vista.

  My DVD re-writer drive had stopped working. So I went into Device Manager and double clicked on the drive, and he said:

  "Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) »

  Can someone help me solve the problem?

  Thank you very much (in advance)

  Hello

  Error code 39 ;) it s known to me and I m very optimistic that I can help you.

  First remove the CD/DVD drive device manager.
  Reboot the laptop. The operating system automatically detects the new hardware and install drivers WEIRD again.
  Open the registry (type regedit), then remove the filter upper & lower of this registry entry value:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  After this procedure, restart the laptop again!
  Now everything should work again! ;)

• Portege Z930-118 does not recognize the external USB CD/DVD drive

  My new Z930-118, with windows 7 64 bit home, does not recognize the external CD/DVD drive when I plug it into the USB port.

  The CD/DVD device does not even appear at all in Device Manager.

  The reader is a SE-S084 Samsun and works well on another laptop.

  I already checked for the "upper_filter", "lower_filter" with the regedit, but entries are not there, so no help.

  Hello
  I m not very well how to help you.

  I found some information about this WEIRD disc and it seems that he didn't need an external power supply. Its USB bus powered so I guess around 500mA power since it is the default value provided by a USB 2.0 port.

  I don t think that there is a problem of missing software. It is a plug n play device so you need to connect it to the USB port and the system should automatically recognise.

  From my point of view of the few you try to connect the external USB ODD two ports to aid a * Y * Cableusb.
  I think the reader needs more power provided by a single USB port.

• DVD drive is dead - l need to reinstall XP Satellite A105

  Hello world

  My wife went on vacation in Hawaii, and while she was missing, its Satellite A105 (is no more under warranty with a dead DVD player) started to malfunction to the point where XP where freeze at startup.

  I tried everything I could, but it wouldn't boot.
  So finally I took a DVD USB drive formatted the drive with killdisk and tried to use the recovery disk to at least get the operational unit. Problem is that the unit does not complete the installation I get the following error:

  Windows cannot find c:/bin/errordialog.exe

  I thought it was the disk so I cleaned it and still the same thing, since I was a student, I had access to XP pro from the msdn network so I got a copy and still the same error.
  I don't have a big enough USB flash drive, and the laptop doesn't have a floppy so I'm stuck with no way to restore the operating system... Needless to say that the wife is not happy with me!

  I managed to get Linux installed without problem, but my wife wants his laptop back to xp and will probably hate me until I can correct what I did. Help, please!

  TIA

  As far as I know it s is not possible to boot from the CD/DVD USB drive and reinstall the operating system by using this procedure.

  I would recommend therefore to replace the CD/DVD drive with a new, then boot from the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  The CD/DVD drive is an essential device for laptop and it is worth having a what functions and trouble free work.

• Equium A100: CD/DVD drive wont read - D:\ error message is not accessible

  Hello.

  My cd/dvd rw drive will not read certain DVD/CD-ROM. I bought my equium (A100 I think) laptop, nine less than a year ago and have had this problem since I got it. The disk which do not work on the laptop work fine on another pc / dvd players, if the disc is not defective. At first I thought that it would be a driver issue because some of the disc worked fine, so I never got the laptop back to the store I bought.

  A message appears "D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error".

  I recently just got internet installed in my house and I went to the toshiba site to see if there are newer drivers that would solve this problem. I downloaded a bios update and an update of dvd ram and installed, but am still having the same problem.

  Can someone help me cause am totally stuck on what to do now.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  As you have probably not known the CD/DVD drive support not all backgrounds.
  In the user manual, you will find a list of supported CD and DVD

  But I assume that you are the reader cannot read certain media because of the impure registry as this other thread mentioned:

• replace the dvd drive pavillion 1157

  The DVD in my HP Pavilion p7 player - 1157c is having a problem reading the CD/DVD, once they are placed in the drawer.  That's what I've done so far:

  • I reinstalled the cables although they were not cowards.
  • Uninstalled the DVD driver and restarted the computer and Windows 7 64 b reinstalled the driver.

  The drawer will always open and close and makes normal sounds when you first insert a CD, but it stops after a few seconds.

  After that these things did not work, I decided to buy a replacement for the CD/DVD drive last night and went to install it this morning but it seems that the power supply works in the way and I can't get the DVD player.   Y at - it something for the old DVD out without removing the power supply?   I'm usually not mechanically challenged but this has me confused.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

• After dismantling Satellite A60 cannot detect the CD/DVD drive

  Hello

  I opened my laptop to clean-up and it was the first time that I never opened a laptop. Messed up at the opening of the cd/dvd drive.
  Instead of just pulling out, I started its opening screw but quickly realized that this is not the right way. So I took it out. Rest of the disassembly procedure went well and I assembled it back but he little silver r 2 bands and a small source, which I'm sure that belongs to the CD player and I couldn't adapt it.
  And I don't know how it fits.
  The computer does not detect the drive. Although I can open it by clicking on the Open button, then he hang out by sharp object. (The light will blink showing the power exists in)

  The second thing is the microphone. I've never used until last week, but my voice is going through. The system does not detect any microphone.

  Help appreciated

  Hello

  On this path, it is not easy to say what is the problem with CD/DVD player. Are there signs of the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager or the drive is not displayed in Windows Explorer?

  How did you test mic? Try it with the tape recorder for windows. So you can test the functionality of the mic on the easiest way.

• Satellite Pro A120 - cannot boot from CD/DVD drive

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 of friends, he was running very slow so I said I'd do the usual for him.
  Back up all his documents, and then reinstall windows. not so easy!

  First of all, try to boot from the CD so I can boot into Ubuntu or reinstall windows.
  Me has taken long enough to work, I had to press DEL/ESC to enter in the BIOS, but once I put to boot from the CD (and was a bootable CD in the drive), it kept just boot from the HARD drive.

  From time to time I get an error saying + "Media test failure - check cable" + or something similar, theres a lot on internet on this subject.
  I think its something to do if the boot order has CD first, then it has LAN as 2nd.

  Able to boot Ubuntu from a USB key.
  Try to copy its documents on my external drive but really copying REALLY slow (like 1 MB/s) and kept getting IO errors on some files.
  I can't run diagnostic software for HARD drive that I can not boot from the CD (could get the Ultimate Boot CD on a USB but if anyone thinks it would help?).

  In windows, the CD player only reads real CD (audio similar DVD, not CDR and DVDR).
  This means a failing drive?
  What intrigues me most, however, is that I changed the portable CD player with a CD of work of another computer and windows recognize today this new CD player at all!

  By putting a bootable CD in this new CD player, it always starts from the HARD drive (do not recognize CD player in all).
  The BIOS is a bit unnecessary and does not show the detected disks...

  Also, boot Ubuntu from a USB key, with the original CD player, he reads real CD and DVD copied of all zeros are considered blank discs and replace the CD drive with a known working in Ubuntu means its not recognized at all (if this isn't windows driver problems).

  When I started messing around with it I remember windows say the time had been reset, so I set the time properly, then he did the same thing again I think. A flat CMOS battery could not be responsible for this?

  Is the motherboard and specifically the IDE controller or a broken ports, or am I doing something stupid? I'm tempted to just install Ubuntu by USB and tell him not to bother with CD more ;^)

  Any suggestions or comments would be much appreciated!

  Thank you
  Dan Gent

  > Me has taken long enough to work, I had to press DEL/ESC to enter in the BIOS, but once I put to boot from the CD (and was a bootable CD in the drive), it kept just boot from the HARD drive.
  You see the CD/DVD drive in BIOS? I mean all the details like the name WEIRD etc.
  If this isn't the case, then it means that your CD/DVD drive is not recognized by the BIOS due to a hardware problem.

  If you can see the STRANGE in the BIOS but are still not able to boot from any disk, then I suppose that the CD/DVD drive cannot read the disk for different reasons.
  One of the reasons could be a defective or damage the laser lens

  > Every so often, I would get an error saying "Media test failure - check cable" or something similar, theres a lot on internet on this subject. I think its something to do if the boot order has CD first, then it has LAN as 2nd.

  Yes, this error means that your laptop tried to boot from LAN

  > In windows, the CD player only reads real CD (audio similar DVD, not CDR and DVDR). This means a failing drive?

  As I said above, it would be possible that the reader s laser lens malfunctions and, therefore, the ODD can't handle the media. It seems that the laser lens can not calibrate properly and can not move in the correct position. This question is not repairable and the drive needs to be replaced.

  > What intrigues me most, however, is that I changed the CD drive with a CD of work of another laptop and windows don't recognize this new CD player at all!

  The fact is that not all CD/DVD drives are compatible due to different master/slave/C-salt settings. You must use the supported players! In most cases, you can find a list in your user manual what CD/DVD readers are compatible.

• Satellite Pro A100 - CD/DVD drive is not listed in the Manager of peripherals and BIOS

  Can Hi anyone tell me what is wrong with this laptop?

  The problem is im using my DVD - ROM drive and it stops working. I went into Device Manager and it wasn't there and it was not in my list of drives. I went and checked the BIOS, it is not listed there either and the BIOS pick up all get them is check the cable or the conection.

  Would be grateful if some knows what happened or if my hard drive is gone.

  Thank you

  Hello

  If the CD/DVD drive is not listed in the Device Manager and BIOS, it seems to be defective and must be replaced.
  What do you think about this?

  You can exchange the car yourself. Check for a compatible CD/DVD Player user manual or go to an authorized service provider. Technicians can order a new drive to swap.

  Sorry, but if the drive is not listed in the BIOS seems to be defective.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100 does not recognize the new CD/DVD drive

  I bought a new CD/DVD drive for my A-100 of Toshiba Satellite age of four year old went crazy and wouldn't work.

  Unfortunately, I bought a DVD of Toshiba Portege A100 / reader Combo CD - RW that is not exactly what I had before the jump that it will still work.

  Unfortunately, I'm surprised because it does not recognize the CD/DVD drive at all: /...
  It seems to work, and the light blinks I think that it is not broken.

  I just plugged it because that's the way I was told to do.
  I need to download the drivers to operate?
  It will work on my laptop, or is it a "most recent" CD player that will not work with my laptop?

  I'd appreciate any help. THX

  The BIOS does not recognize this new CURIOUS because the player seems not to be fully compatible.
  I think there bad master/slave/c-salt settings

  As you know these settings can be changed on the external CD/DVD drive for desktop switching jumper. But it is not possible for computers portable CD/DVD players.

  You can solve it only purchase a new compatible disc.

  Usually the ASP in your country could help you buy this disc of these guys here
  However, you can consult the user manual if there are a few details on the compatible sides.
  My user manual provides this information.

• Satellite A120: CD/DVD drive cannot read or recognize DVD

  Hello

  I had this problem, whenever I insert a DVD, or even a CD containing data stored, my laptop will not be able to access these files.
  When I go to my computer, there will be an icon to recognize the CD or the DVD, I sometimes get a message saying that the file extensions is not overprint and I have to change it.

  Funniest yet, when I try to insert a DVD-ROM, it recognizes the DVD as a VIRGIN drive; an icon appears in my computer that would suggest that the DVD CD is actually a blank disc. Simply, I can't run any DVD or CD any data.

  I have the latest drivers, I run Vista 32 bit and am distraught as the cause of my problems.

  I hope I can get this problem solved by your help.

  Hello

  I'm not quite sure, what could be the reason of this strange WEIRD question but let's m hope this could be solved by changing some registry entries.

  First of all, please go to the Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.

  Then, start the registry editor 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}

  Then restart the laptop and check if the CD/DVD drive would work after a new reorganization of the driver and installation.

• Of Satellite A100 CD/DVD drive does not write CD

  My A100 running Vista cannot burn CD whatever CD I insert for registration, do not see it A100. DVD burning is OK. Weird and irritating. Can anyone help?

  Hello

  Don t use Roxio program to burn the CD.
  Use Nero! It of much better! I also use it and I m very happy.

  I noticed that Roxio modifies the registry key, and so sometimes the CD/DVD drive cannot read or burn some mediums.

  Delete the Upperfilter and UpperFilter in this key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

• Satellite A40-141 - IDE #1 error after the insertion of a new CD/DVD drive

  Hey there!

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A40 - 141 series.
  I have built in a new dvd driver and after I restarted my laptop

  I get the message IDE # 1 and I can't use the driver. I read in some forums that I probably need to update my bios. Now, here's the problem. I can only update version 1.5 for my laptop.

  I tried that and get the message that I already have version 1.5. I can't find an another update of bios for the A40 series except the 1.5 which is since 2004.

  Can anyone help please?

  Sorry for the long talk and bad English :-)
  Thank you

  Hello

  You are completely wrong boyfriend.
  This problem will be resolved not the BIOS updates!

  You bought the car just not compatible.
  The IDE #1 error means that the device connected to the IDE 1 controller was not recognized. Why? Because of the wrong master/slave/C-salt settings!

  Slim portable settings are controlled by the firmware and cannot be changed as weird for desktop PC.

  Either you contact the manufacturing of the CD/DVD drive and will require an update of the firmware and how to change these settings or you need to purchase a new compatible RATING

  Good bye
