  Hello

  you mean that the external hard drive does not work too? Some software blocking your disks?

  I think that the best way to check if your internal drive still works would try to start with a bootable CD (perhaps with a live linux distribution on it) and to try this with the external hard drive also.

  If you're really a software that prevents the drive work properly, then you should recover your machine with the recovery media to make the drive work again properly.

  See you soon

• 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.
  After this review of the procedure if you can read, write the middle.

• DVD player doesn't read disc

  I have a HP Pavilion zv6000 and optical DVD drive will not read a disk... DVD, cd. It sounds like it is reading when I put in a disc. It runs upward and then closes. When I try to use the browser to read it, I just get the hourglass and cannot get out of him unless I force close Notepad. I even bought a new drive, but that did not help. I uninstalled it and the drivers in the Manager device and rebooted nothing done. Help.

• Satellite A300-177 - Pioneer DVD - RW KD08A stopped reading discs

  The car has worked since the machine was purchased. Today, there has been a problem

  When you put in a disk, it rotates - but made much more noise than usual, then stops. And that's all. The machine - running Vista - does not recognize that there is a disc in the drive. The device is functioning according to the Device Manager and the driver is up to date and working properly. The DVD player, same media file browser Player do not recognize that there is a dik in drive.

  I tried 4 different DVD and CD. I looked at just 3 days ago, so I know there is no problem with the disks. I thought it would be the head of reading - but who wouldn't it start and then stop - isn't it.

  Any help appreciated. Someone at - he heard of this before. I don't know what to try now.

  If the drive is properly recognized in Device Manager, there may be a problem with the upper and lower filters in the registry or it s the reader himself.

• Equium L300 CD/DVD Drive no longer reads disks

  There is already a thread with a similar problem to this with a different model, but it seems to be dead.

  The reader of CD/DVD on my Equium L300-148 now refuses to read the discs. It seems to burn yet, which is odd.
  That means the laser has not burned, and drivers seem to work fine.

  I see the drive in the Solution Explorer, and I can eject it with the context menu.
  I tried a "Disable" then "enable" in the Device Manager, but I have not tried to uninstall the drive and then restarting.

  Any help would be apreciated.

  Is the CD/DVD drive is able to read the Toshiba Recovery disk?
  Have you tried to boot from the Toshiba Recovery disk and then reinstall the OS?
  Please check this!

  If it of possible to read the recovery disc then the STRANGE is not defective and eventually he only s software problem.

  Notes; boot from the recovery disk will format the whole HARD drive and will set the laptop to factory setting!

• 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?

• DVD player will not read is no longer drives

  Recently, I went for 2 weeks - when I left my computer was working and my dvd drive could read all my disks (mainly games)

  My return however (and after the installation of 18 updates last night) the bed DVD player is no longer just about any type of media disc (having already be able to read all). However, whenever I needed it for work, he did, I noticed that before I left my DVD player had played a bit and seems to be trying to read discs (making the noise of rotation).

  Anyone got any ideas on what this could be and a possible fix?

  (im running windows vista and the drive is a tsstcorp DVD + - RW TS - H653B ATA)

  Thanks in advance

  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 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.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

• DVD recorder is not read/write discs DVD-RAM on Satellite A200-1GH

  Hello!!

  I have the problem as the topic - my DVD drive is not read/write DVD-RAM discs (recorder: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20N). Unfortunately, there is no any drivers (more recent than I've got) for this recorder on the Toshiba, not even site on LG or Microsoft. What should I do?

  Greetings

  Hello

  To be honest, it's quite strange. If the laptop is preinstalled with recovery image, it should work. I tested it on my laptop 5 minutes ago and it works. The DVD-RAM disc is readable and different documents can be saved on the disk too.

  Do you use your own installation of OS, or you still have some factory settings?

• Satellite Pro A10: DVD rom sd c2612 stopped reading discs completely

  OK, I have a Satellite Pro A10, recently it is just stopped reading discs completely! Ive got no idea what wrong with and do not know if you need to replace? I prefer not too.

  If anyone has any advice on repairing it I would appreciate it. If not if anyone knows if there any compatible DVD readers writing? also the best place to buy?

  Help, please!

  Hello

  This does not sound well :( I think it could be a hardware problem maybe something wrong with the lens of the drive
  Anyway, usually it of not possible to fix these issues or it s not worth repairing, because the costs are too high
  Thus, it seems that you need to replace. But be careful. Not all readers are compatible because different master/slave/c-salt settings.
  I would recommend so contact the ASP in your country to get a compatible drive.

  But please try this proposal;
  Sometimes, the Player cannot read the Middle due to the incorrect registry key.
  Remove the upper and lower filter filter in this key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  and restart the laptop. Maybe it helps

  Good luck
