• Qosmio G30-176 - DVD player will not play

  The dvd player won't play or even say that there is a disc please help

  Hi Paul

  Your message is very short and you don t provide all the details, but I will try to provide the answer to a problem.
  First of all, this looks like a hardware problem. I mean the lens of the drive cannot calibrate in the right position and would have problems.
  In this case the player would not be able to manage different CDs or DVDs.

  But first, you should try this
  Access to the registry and try to remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  After this withdrawal, restart the computer.

  I read that this accelerated procedure to solve the different CD/DVD drive problem.

  But if you will not be successful then a hardware problem is possible and only a replacement of drives could help.

• Satellite Pro A100: CD/DVD player will not play the audio CD or video DVD

  People,
  I have a Satellite Pro A100, with a RUG * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841 S Drive.
  It will read fine data disks, but refuses to play with the audio CD or video DVD.

  I tried to uninstall & Re-Installing DVD - RAM Driver;
  That got rid of the "IO error" that I received, unfortunately I don't notice the full error: S.
  He now just doesn't see the drive. Someone at - it ideas?

  I did a full windows update, and the Toshiba Diagnostic util tell me anything useful except "Fail" :(

  I found a thread in this forum that describes a similar theme:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19747&MessageID=72404

  Sometimes this error is displayed because the player does not support the environment.
  Always it is every way is supported by readers and I think that in the user manual, you will find an index CDs or DVDs compatible

  Maybe the drive is defective and can not calibrate lens in the right position.
  But this laptop is not very old, and I can't imagine that the drive is defective
  However, nothing is impossible.

  What you can do is to carefully clean the lens and see that it will help.

• Satellite M40-145: CD/DVD player will not play some DVD

  Hello!

  I am the owner of a Satellite M40-145 bought a little over a year; DVD driver worked perfectly until three days ago, but today I discovered something... strange. Still, it reads the DVD business and burned the DVD + r, but apparently it does not read the DVD - r serious more. I tried with different DVD - Rs, I burned the same DVD player, without success; trying to access the DVD gives a message "insert the disk in drive D:".

  In this case, I'm talking about movies on DVD. Please tell me there is a way to fix this without sending the computer to the customer service...
  I wouldn't think he fell down a few days after the expiry date of the guarantee.

  Hello

  Well, you can try to remove the Device Manager order form.
  After restarting again the reader should be recognized again. Then, check if it is possible to read the DVD - R, CD.

  But the question sounds like a lens calibration error. If you use different media, the lens must be calibrated again. But if this procedure fails, the drive is not able to read or write the DVD for example.
  Unfortunately, in this case only the replacement of the drive will resolve this problem.

• Registry is corrupted and my CD/DVD player will not load Windows recovery disc. How can I fix?

  I am posting this from my laptop.

  Whenever I try to start my office, I gives me the options to start windows normally, last good configuration, safe mode, etc. known. None of these work. Upstairs, he asked that I get my Windows restore disk, reboot and repair. Well, that works either, because I was not able to load ANY media on my computer for a while now. I don't know how it happened, but since I have never really used the CD for nothing, I paid little attention to her. Now, I'm screwed. I can do to fix this without having to replace anything?

  Thank you.

  P. S.

  The screen turns blue. Ugh...

  You can borrow and use a Microsoft Retail or system builder OEM Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.
