DVD player accidentally disabled and deleted

I think I uninstalled/removed my DVD player. I clicked on device delete icon Add on my toolbar and for some reason any it uninstalled/removed the DVD player completely, as if my computer is not a hard drive and now the DVD player will read not all discs. I tried to go to the properties of the material to do the turn, but it does not appear there. It's as if I removed it completely. Short of a reinstallation of everything, what can I do to restore the functionality of the DVD player?

I use a laptop HP Pavilion DV4-1265dx using windows 7.

Hello

    I think that this problem started since I've updated the firmwire F103, but I do not know...

    Help please.

    Hello!

    Was the update of the firmware of your CD/DVD drive or have you another one? In my view, the drive could be faulty due to a bad firmware

    But before you exchange the drive, you should try to remove the upper and lower filters in the Windows registry:
    (1) start Regedit (start-> Run-> Regedit)
    2) go 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.

    Good bye

  • I updated firefox to version 8 and after I restarted firefox all my modules were disabled and deleted Firefox. When I tried to reinstall them they insttalled, but they do not work not even one

    I've recently updated to 7.0.1 to 8.0 (but I chose "restart later"). When I opened firefox the next day, all my modules have been removed completely from firefox (and even from my computer - I checked the profile data in the C drive, where my windows was installed). I installed some add-ons, then he says the Add - ons have been installed successfully (without all over again) but when you click through an add-on options it did not open. I checked for all the Add-ons, but none of the options of the add button - it worked. Screenshot of some of my modules

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files extensions.* (e.g., extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache and extensions.rdf) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to do a check of compatibility or to see if there is an available update compatibility.

  • DVD player, not visible and detected

    Hello

    I am using windows 7 home 64 bit on HP Pavilion dv4-3031tx laptop. A few months ago I changed my DVD rom HP service center drive as the engraving option did not work. After changing, it was working fine. Now, the drive is not visible when I opened my computer. I installed all the drivers again from the recovery manager supplied by HP recovery disk, but it is still the same. Strange thing is when I insert my recovery disc and restart my boot of seleting for laptop to DVD option, can detect the disc and the approaches for installing the OS. If possible, I want to slove this problem rather than reinstall windows recovery disk I have tons of programs installed in HD. Please give an effective solution. I'm really worried.

    Thanks in advance.

    It's a pretty common problem and there is a Microsoft Autofix to this:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/982116

    You can run the automatic setting, but I had more chance to do manual registry change which is also described on the link.

    This is called the problem of upper/lower case filters and is the very low level driver built-in to Windows.

  • How can I return my "downloading" files, I have accidentally erased and deleted?

    I pressed the wrong button, and modify the list of files in the download history, and they were all removed and allowed instead of one entry selected aimed.

    Hello Richard_Peck, I'm afraid that's not possible to restore these entries unfortunately. downloads & history are not considered as precious as your bookmarks, so firefox won't create backups automated them. only if you have a manual of your profile folder backup or any available hard disk, it would be possible to retrieve the download history...

  • His grave suddenly on a DVD player, but in the first, still and WM Player

    Hello

    The sound on the DVD I burned in still suddenly falls to almost inaudible--but only when played on a DVD player! The problem does not occur on a computer (well in the first, still and DVD sounds good on all players like windows media, real player, etc.).

    Drop noise happens in the same place, about 40 seconds in the 1/2 hour video. Then, the sound blasts at full volume for the end credits I inspected the 2 audio tracks in the first and track volumes do not change, nor my knots of volume control in the securities themselves explain the problem.

    Why it would sound good in all applications on a computer, but not on a DVD player... and why the first 40 seconds would sound good on the DVD player?

    I could hear volume of 'regular' dialogue in the left and much softer, but not absent, in the right. I can't guarantee this isn't an artifact on this end.

    I think you have solved the audio problem at first. Looks like you have a stereo audio track from a source who had a microphone in a single channel. Instead of panning, "fill right" (or left, I always have to check myself on this) so that you get the dialogue on both sides.

    I don't think that you dismissed a phase problem. But I suspect that when solve you the problem of the track, your audio will be correct.

  • Portege R700 - external DVD Player compatibility

    I have a problem with a Samsung external super-multi drive 2 year with my new Portege R700-1F3, which does not come with a DVD player. The USB powered Samsung dvd player works fine with all other computers that I have access to:
    * MacBook with OS X 10.5
    * Samsung NP - X 360 laptop computer with Windows XP 32-bit
    * Dell Inspiron Zino HD computer desktop with Windows 7 64 bit

    The symptoms are:
    * When the dvd player is plugged in Portege, the green light on the dvd player goes on and out.
    * This happens in the BIOS, and once that Windows 7 32-bit support.
    * In Control Panel Windows 7 devices & printers, the DVD alternately appear & disappear constantly.
    * When it appears, it shows up as "USB storage device" with a yellow! warning icon.

    I tried all 3 USB ports. The power cable is plugged Portege. I tried the turn of the digital signature when starting upwards. The external dvd came free with my old laptop from Samsung and is the model AA-ES0N09B.

    Any suggestion that this is a hardware or software problem and how to fix it?

    Thank you
    Lola

    Hi Lola,.

    Have you tried other USB devices on your Portege R700 if they work properly?

    If peripheral USB do some problems I would try to remove the USB ports from the Device Manager (right click > uninstall) and restart your computer. After that, the USB ports will be recognized again and you are able to use them.

    If it doesn t help I would try a driver update from the official website of Toshiba chipset. http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/

  • Portege R830 - Toshiba DVD Player missing

    Drive DVD - Portege R830 (03N00701)

    I can find no trace of the software Toshiba Video Player or Toshiba DVD player. My dealer told me simply that "they probably don't put more ' and told me to use Windows Media Player. Still the .pdf manual has clear instructions to use it.

    I'm supposed to have a Toshiba DVD player on board and if not, what can I download online?

    G Hey Lauri

    According to the specification for the Portege R830 series you should have The Toshiba DVD Player software.
    However you can download it here,

    [http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK]

    I have not used because I used to use a freeware prog. called VLC because it plays one of these video file formats that I tried on it.

    I have Satellite R830-143 and relatively speaking, it has the same specifications as the Portege and had the DVD player when I bought it a month ago.

    Seems dealers will tell you anything without even bothering to check.

    Best wishes
