DVD-ROM on the Satellite L300 - 144 (PSLB0E) does not

Hi all

I have a problem with my DVD player does not.

When I bought the laptop 2 months ago it was working fine, after about 2 weeks the DVD player started playing some DVDs and others read do not. I decided that I was going to go down the slope from Vista to XP to support programming languages and DB management tools does not not on Vista. After formatting and XP is loading, the DVD Player did exactly the same thing. Now 2 months down the line is not read or write any DVD and not CD even if it's still the DVD playback.

I followed the steps on the forum to remove the disc from the device and then Manager deleting Upper and Lower filters, although I couldn't find any filters lower or higher in the folder specified by the users of the forum. I restarted the machine and the pilot has been reloaded without a bit of luck. When you open the DVD drive in my computer, it's a blank screen as it would be for a compilation in writing, even if the DVD contains information on, even original movies DVD does exactly the same thing.

I also tried to recover the installation of Vista from the recovery DVD and it is not reading the DVD.

I looked in the manual where it says that the machine should have a readers following Panasonic UJ-870 b/UJ-870F, Hitachi GSA-T40N/GSA-T40F, Pioneer DVR-KD08TBM/DVR-KD08TBF, Samsung TS-L632H/TS-L632P or Toshiba SD-L802B. However if I go to my computer / device manager / Nero Info tool it shows all the DVD drive as drive SD-L622A. The driver info is the next Microsoft 5.1.2535.0 (2001/07/01) with firmware T070 version.

With the Toshiba Software accompanies the drive also fails.

Is there an updated driver that will help or updates the firmware or other solutions available to me?

Thank you

    Hello!

    I think that this is not a problem. Windows 7 is only a beta OS and at the moment, the pilot decision-making is not very good.

    You might find some drivers on the site of the factory of the WLAN card. In your case, it should be Realtek.

    Good bye

  • Power of the Satellite P100-240 unit does not work properly

    From time to time my power (PA2521E - 2AC3) unit starts beeping and stops the power get to the computer, forcing it to drain the battery.
    Summer happening for several weeks now and sometimes it stops itself, but other times I have to put my diet off for hours and keep checking to see if the beep stopped.
    It does not overheat as I only for about 30 minutes before it starts to beep.
    If I turn off feeding the continuous ringing for a few seconds before disappearing for good.

    What is - this and I should send it back?

    Hello

    I never heard that the AC adapter would do some sounds or would start beeping
    In my opinion it of not normal and the adapter must be verified.

    You should definitely contact the ASP (authorized service provider) in your country to control and perhaps this part needs to be replaced

    I think the warranty is valid at the moment and the replacement is done for free

    Good luck

    Agree with Feliks the ODD is secured by a screw hidden in the HARD drive Bay.
    So the HARD drive Bay cover must be removed to access this screw procedure is not really difficult, so you should be able to remove it easily.

  • Satellite L300-1AY recovery does not

    Hello

    I have a question about the recovery for a Tosihba Satellite L300-1AY with Windows Vista preinstalled.
    I wanted to grab my laptop and when I pressed F8 during startup I could choose Restore my computer.

    But after the game, I received a message-box (System Recovery Options) telling me that installed programs may not start, and the only option I had was press OK then the computer shuts down.

    I was wondering if there was any way, this can be corrected or if there is another way to get my computer back.

    Thank you

    Hello

    You may retrieve the laptop using the recovery DVDs that you created if all goes well before this problem happened
    Did you create recovery DVDs?

    If this isn't the case, then only the HARD drive recovery option can be used.
    For this you have to press F8 after that laptop has been powered.
    Then choose fix my computer.
    Then a new window will appear and then you could choose Toshiba Recovery.

    If this procedure does not start and you will not be able to use HARD drive recovery you need a Toshiba Recovery DVD.

    If you didn t create the recovery DVD, so you can order it here:

  • Satellite L300-1BD - output does not work VGA

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 1BD (model PSLB8E). I've been usinng the VGA output to connect to my LG tv. It worked fine until last week. All of a sudden the TV won't not reckognized by cell phone. TV says no external device is connected. I tried different things: commissioning with the TV connected and not connected via the VGA cable, by pressing the FN + F5, removing the battery and pressing on the powerbutton, verified to the last videodriver, deleted the driver existing and installed new... unfortunately without result. I also tried to plug the TV with a different VGA cable, but no result. It is not the TV because I tried to connect the laptop to a TFT monitor and it did not work as well. Tested the VGA cable with my friends laptop: it works perfectly.

    The strange thing is: if I crochet TV up the laptop, I can hear the phone makes the his "new hardware found" and turns black same laptopscreen for a second, then everything appears on the laptopscreen. If I check the graphic properties with the right click on my desktop, I see they are no set for 'clone device ". As if the laptop computer knows, something is connected, but just cannot transfer the image to the TV screen.

    The graphics card is a Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset family.
    The OS is Vista Home Basic (32).

    It's a shame that the VGA output seems to be down because I watch tons of videos and movies through my laptop on the TV screen. I don't know if this could be a software or a hardware malfunction. If someone has an idea or an idea, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

    Marcin.

    Hello

    All that you have done to test the functionality of a VGA port is good, but I assume that there must be a hardware problem and I recommend you to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider.
    Of course, on this path virtual, we can only speculate what may be the problem, but it should be tested correctly. If you want to last and ultimate test Exchange HARD drive, install original OS, you got with the functionality of your laptop and test with the factory settings.

  • "SHIFT" on the Satellite Pro C660 key does not work

    G ' Day,.

    I have a little problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660.
    Unfortunately I had to remove the keyboard and thus dislodged the
    fragile plug to connect to the computer.

    The 'Shift' key refused to work since. All other keys work as usual.
    The only problem is the 'Shift' button does not.
    I tried to gently move the plug but made no difference so now have to
    Use a USB keyboard.

    Can you please help with suggestions for this problem?
    Thank you for your time.

    See you soon,.
    Sunrap.

    I really put t know what you think when you know that there is no connection for each unique key, but for the entire keyboard.

    To be honest I ve changed keyboard several times but never noticed this problem.
    Are the two SHIFT keys off function?

  • Why Satellite L300-10 q does not recognize wireless network

    This new laptop works well on a wired LAN but does not recognize a wireless local area network. Received the message no network found. In the same room with another PC laptop Toshiba the wireless LAN is located and has good signal strength.
    The wireless LAN switch is on and the 'antenna' pictogram led burns red.

    Seems that it is not configured for detection. No idea how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    You´re sure you checked all THE settings? I mean, if the local wired network works and the wireless is enabled, you need to check all the parameters available that could be done. One idea would be to check the L300 on another access point to make sure that the problem persists on different brands of wireless routers.

    Please check this first and make sure that your settings are all on "automatic" so if you do not find the reason, come back and we will try to find another solution.

  • Satellite L300 - portable computer does not load

    Hello

    I just wanted to know roughly how much it should cost, or what can I do to fix my laptop. It does not load and I bought a new charger to see if it works but it started to load for a few days and then stopped working again.

    All responses will be apperciated, thank you.

    Hi DeeDee_1,

    If you have already bought a new charger and it doesn t work there seems to be a motherboard problem, but another part could be affected too

    Here he s just a user to user forum and nobody can tell you how much it would cost because a professional diagnosis is necessary. After that an authorized service provider can make you an offer on all repair costs.

    Then contact the guy and ask for help. They can give you a good answer ;)

  • Re: A few questions about the Satellite L300 - 145 (PSLB0E)

    Hello

    I have a few questions that make me go nuts.

    1 - this laptop what chipset is actually uses? GL960 and GM965? Since it has 2 GB max ram I would say GL960, but that one is capped at 533 mhz and 667 mhz are the Rams came with the laptop. Also the name of drivers chipset gm965, said, I don't know if it's the name for the entire group of chipsets or if it's really a GM965. And also GL960 has no integrated graphics, but this laptop only, and GM965 has an integrated graphics card.
    to prove that I do things to the top you go here:
    [https://ark.intel.com/products/29830 | https://ark.intel.com/products/29830] GL960
    [https://ark.intel.com/products/29821/Intel-82GM965-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller | https://ark.intel.com/products/29821/Intel-82GM965-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller] GM965

    2 - if it's a GM965 why the computer only suports laptop 2 GB ram max, while officially the suports 4 GB chipset?

    3 - Why is there not a page on the website of toshiba (al less in the Web site code) which tells me the full specifications for this laptop, as if there is a page for others more recommended laptops?

    Post edited by: Kailido

    Your phone has Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset inside and can handle with 2 GB of RAM only and you can use the monitoring modules:
    1 GB-DDR2-667-PA3512U-1M1G
    2 GB DDR2-667-PA3513U-1M2G

    Unfortunately I can't answer your last question. This question is for Toshiba directly.
