• readers of CD/dvd rom registry problems

  Hi I have a similar problem I have a sony vaio vgn-ar730e I ordered up the windows of windows 7 now cd/dvd-rom is recognized but it does not work I put any cd in it that it does not start automatically, and the icon is not located in my computer so there is no way that I can access any cd. Also in the reader of cd/dvd properties it says Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19). Please could someone help me with this.

  Hello

  19 code means there is a driver conflict such as two devices attempt to use the same resources.

  The bottom can help:

  References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

  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.

  Can I use a dvd - rom external USB? It will be same which recognizes? Don't want to lose $50 for nothing.

  Yes, it should work, you will need to set it up in the BIOS so.

  Another option is to create a bootable USB key with the installation files.

• Satellite P10 problems with Mat * a DVD ROM

  Hello

  I have a problem with my P10,
  I bought it for 2 months and 4 months ago my
  Carpet * a DVD ROM does strange things.
  When I try to copy a CD for example, it reads the cd source, after I put in those recordable, it starts to burn and suddenly it stops, says ERROR (Event Viewer: error on Controller\Dev01\CD-ROM) and my Combo drive is presented as a 'simple' DVD - RAM on Solution Explorer drive.

  Sometimes it won't read movies on DVD or CD so I have
  to restart the P10 and generally it can read the disks after that.
  So is my faulty drive, the card mother or just me?
  Have been looking for a new driver, but there is just a
  DVD-RAM, no driver for the drive itself.

  Hello

  Maybe the contact of the cable to the controller and CD player is loose. The error message said you it should be good!

  Your P10 is under warranty so bring a call Toshiba and it need to be repaired or a Service partner!

• My Satellite M40X: DVD Rom has had serious problem

  Dear friends,

  my laptop worked for 3 months without any problem.these days when I put a CD in DVD rom is not recognized and a error message on the screen that says that no cd is in the drive.could would be a software problem or it's definitely a hardware malfunction. I look forward seriously to your instructions

  Installed some burning software, burning plugins or something similar? In most cases, these programs are the troublemakers. Try to uninstall all your burning stuff, and maybe it's a good idea that you download a reference (such as ultimate boot cd cd; Link: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/download.html) or memtest (http://www.memtest86.com/) and try to boot from the cd. When the CD starts correctly, then you know it's something with the configuration of your software.

  Try it :)

• Can what external CD/DVD-Rom I use on Portege 3500

  Does anyone know what are the criteria for an external CD ROm for a Portege 3550? There are 3 units recommended in the forum that could restart the Toshiba Reinstall the Portege 3500 drives, 2 Targus and Toshiba 1.

  This seems very limited. In particular the 2793008 of Toshiba will do the job? No USB unit is recommended and it seems it takes a 16-bit interface - not a 32-bit.

  Can someone clarify please?

  Hello

  I don t think that it will be able to boot from USB key because the BIOS doesn t it supports.
  If you want to retrieve from the CardBus PCMCIA adapter you will need a special disc boot that allows the start of the PC 16-bit PCMCIA card.

  I found these drivers:
  Light Slimline CD-ROM 24 x, PX1052E-1NMD (16-bit PCCard)
  Slimline CD - RW 8 x / 8 x / 24 x CDRW, PX1054E-1NST (CardBus)
  Slimline DVD - ROM 8 x / 24 x, PX1053E-1NMD (CardBus)

• P10: DVD / DVD-ROM problems

  Hi guys!

  Hope you can help, probably something stupid, I forgot. I have the P10 series with a Combo DVD - ROM SD-R2412 type. I recently put a new installation of the op (XP) system by using the system restore disks. Since then, my cd drive reads DVD movies and normal cd but not DVD ROM such a DVD - ROM games. Any ideas? Windows XP sees it as a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive, but that's all.

  Thanks in advance for any help

  Hello

  I'm not sure but I think that your device has a DVD - RAM drive. I have the same drive in my Satellite and everything works perfectly. I really don t understand how something like this possible is especially after the reinstallation of the operating system with recovery CD.

  I put t know if you use the original games store or some houses burned. Try to use many different DVD media to know what problem one makes.

• Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: problem with the new HP DH16D5S DVD ROM drive

  My office is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t.  I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I have two HP optical dirives, one is a writer, and the other is just a DVD ROM  Both have always worked perfectly with Windows 7.  After you have installed Windows 10 continuous burner work very well works correctly with autoplay.  However, the DVD - ROM, HP DH16D5S, immediately began using autoplay.  Actually the drive was not yet recognized as a drive when you view the drives in the file Explorer.  Finally, it would seem, sometimes taking also longer than 5 minutes or more before doing so and then would work very well.  I tried different types of media, including music CD, DVD video and DVD software with the same results.  I assumed that it was a problem with the drive, maybe a bad capacitor, etc., which was originally not start correctly.  So I ordered a new DH160D5S, but which seems to have been a waste of time and money, because it does exactly the same thing as the original.  I even changed the cables autour between it and the burner, but it made no difference.  The burner still works fine but not DVD ROM.  I tried to find a more recent driver for it, but had no chance.  I found on a Dell website for this drive which was an update of the firmware for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not for Windows 10.  I advanced and downloaded, but when I tried to run, I got the message: "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update has been canceled. »

  I want to try a different brand of DVD ROM, but would have to buy one without knowing if it would help.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Since I posted this message I discovered that there is a driver problem with this DVD ROM.  There's no driver available yet to make the drive compatible with Windows 10.  Since then, I returned the drive and replaced by another brand that is compatible with Windows 10.

• Error code 19 - CD/DVD-ROM problem. Please help and read the description first!

  I tried to load my games such as rollercoaster tycoon on my computer by inserting them into the disc drive. Nothing happens. I went to toautoplay and it had all the right settings I wanted. I changed several times and tried to re - insert the disc, but nothing has happened yet. I thought it was a problem of CD/DVD drive, so I went to 'Computer', right-click on Vista64 (C :) and selected 'properties'.) I clicked on the Hardware tab, and then on HL - DT - ST DVDRAM GS20N, my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive. I realized quickly that there was a problem, because the box said"device status: Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged.» (Code 19) «. I looked at the code 19 on the support Web page and found a link to a Microsoft Fixit, Windows Powershell 1.0. I installed the program, he ran through and he said that he had fixed the problem. I inserted the game once more, but still nothing happens. I went to my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive once more and he said that the problem was not resolved. I don't know how to solve this problem. Help, please! (It is not just the CD I try to insert, because none of the many CD I tried to use will work). Should I try to restart my computer?

  Hello

  I just bought an external player/recorder for use with my PC (XP Professional) CD/DVD.

  I want to delete my two old, internal, CD and DVD ROM drives in my PC, and to make the new default value.
  What configuration changes should I do it before (or after) I disconnect them? I don't ever want to reuse them.
  Thanks in advance for any advice.

  Nothing, they are used or should not appear in the BIOS. Thus, they do not appear in windows (once you delete them).

• CD/DVD-ROM problems, drive not detected AND the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager

  I'm having serious problems here. My CD/DVD-ROM drive is not detected and will not answer. I can ONLY open the drawer at the beginning of my computer laptop startup. The drive does not appear in my computer and the category of CD/DVD-ROM does not appear in Device Manager. Therefore, the "uninstall/reinstall" is impossible if the computer behaves as it has never been this drive now or never. Previously, I was able to use it as there was no problem, but someday, it's simply not there.

  Your registry may be damaged. (Code 19)

  This problem occurred after cleaned your registry using "CCleaner database"? If so, then when running CCLeaner you would have the option to backup the registry keys. If you did, perhaps restore the backup keys. If not, read the article above (do not rely on the fixit).
