DVD - RW 1950-801 problem

The reader does not always read the disk, dvd or cd. I have to eject it and enter it again three or four times to read the content. I tried with different types of disks and I have the same problem. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for your interest.

Hi makisp1,

What type of CD could not be read? Backup to DVD/CD or original DVD/CD?

If there are backup DVD and CD, with what DVD/CD burner, the mids are written? Integrated with the laptop or with a writer in another system?

What CD write Software announced version do you use?

  • Problem of DVD on a Satellite 1950 801

    Hello

    DVD player (Mat * a UJ - 810) of my Toshiba Satellite 1950 801 recently stopped recognizing any DVD inserted media (rewritable, registered or manufactured). However, it seems to work correctly with the CD, CD - r and CD - RWs. everything also seems normal in the control panel (I'm under Win XP Home, btw).

    I wonder if it's probably a software problem (a driver or a program that must be running) or a hardware store. I need to replace the DVD drive?

    Thank you very much in advance for your answers.

    Hello

    Optical drive needs to change the phase of laser reading/writing DVD from the one he uses for CDs. It is possible that he can no longer do this properly.

    Before you replace it, attempt to remove the optical drive from Device Manager, and then restart your system. The optical drive should be detected and re-installed with drivers, etc.. If she is still unable to properly read the DVD then it's a pretty safe bet that the unit should be replaced.

    Kind regards

    Sorry for my bad English...
    When I start my laptop (push the botton) the screen is black!
    I do not see the TOSHIBA logo... and nothing else!
    The laptop is turned on (the green light is on) but the disk does not work.it similar to a sleep state.
    No BIOS, no windows...
    SO I switch off the power sector and battery to turn off the cell phone!
    Hel me!
    I have a TOSHIBA 1950-801

    Help me!!

    Hi Mauro,

    your problem is very difficult because you do not see the Toshiba logo. When you push power button, watch closely to your LEDs. There is an opportunity of the NB emits a flashing code. The Toshiba Service partner could help interpret the Code and locate the problem.

  • Display driver Satellite 1950 801

    When did go be a upgrade for my nvidea display driver?
    I can't play collin mcray rally 4.0 due to the fact that my display driver is not upgraded.can you help me thnx
    send me an e-mail: [email protected]

    Hello

    After awhile the driverupdate for a laptop will be reduced to a minimum. Righteous updates resolve the big problems that will come out.

    This procedure is every time the same thing. If you buy a computer, Notebook, PDA for example.

    But you can look for other cell phones ("most recent") with your graphics card in it.

    The Satellite 1950 801 has a nVidea Geforce4 Go 460 aboard.

    I have this graphics card sought and found that Toshiba had made another series called Satellite 5200 (701,-801,-901).

    Of course, you can watch if this driver is more recent.

    But attention! I Don t give no guarantee that all series of perfect with this 'the driver update procedure '. We can dispense with the craziest things!

    I know what I'm talking about, I have the also a Satellite 1950-801.

  • LAN wireless in 1950-801

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite 1950 801.
    Beyond the keyboard is a case that seems to be the place to insert the optional wireless network card.

    I have the button to enable and disable the wireless card, but without the card it doesn't do much.

    What is the format of the wireless card? Where can I buy one?

    Tanks

    Hello

    I found information on your device and it seems that you can upgrade the laptop with a wireless Mini PCi Card. Wireless on this unit standard is 802. 11B. In addition the PA3212U-4MPC is a 802. 11 b but I m not 100% sure if it s compatible.
    I found other compatible cards:

    Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card (2, 4 GHz, 802. 11a / b) PA3273U-1MPC
    Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card (2, 4 GHz, 802 11 b) PA3212U-3MPC
    Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card (2, 4 GHz, 802 11 b) PA3212U-2MPC
    Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card (2, 4 GHz, 802 11 b) PA3212U-1MPC

    However, you can ask the service partner for more detailed information.

    Best regards

  • Satellite 1950 801 does support WLan?

    Is Toshiba 1950-801 charge wireless network? And how do I install the driver for it.

    Note: I have the on/off switch for the wireless in the front of the laptop

    According to some information in the net, the WLan on the Satellite 1950 801 is optional.
    This means that some laptops have been delivered with the WLan and others not.

    In your case if you are not sure 100% if your laptop has built in wireless minPCI network card then I recommend to check the Device Manager. The WLan card network adapters should be registered if it was already installed on your laptop.

  • Question about VGA PCMCIA satellite 1950 801

    Anyone know if it is the PCMCIA VGA card with chipset market later than nvidia geforce 460 go to upgrade my satellite 1950 801 (with nvidia geforce 460go)?

    Thanks in advance

    The best unfortuantely adapter Pcmcia you get for PCMCIA is 4 MB of video memory. This is because the size and heat all became issues and could not get into a PCMCIA card.

    Sorry, it's not that you can do.

    I miss my cd dvd drivers and have problems to find to resettle. Any help?

    Go to the support web site of the company that made the PC (there they are hard inside) or the company that makes the cd/dvd drive itself if its an external drive (USB?). They provide the drivers for their hardware.

    Check on your support site relevant to the brand and specific to the model of your PC (or an external drive) and any provision supported drivers or software for the readers, should be there.

  • DVD-RAM in 1950-801

    Hello.

    My DVD-RAM Satellite 1950 drive - 801 is having a few problems.

    I wonder if I need to change it to one that is exactly the same... In other words... Can I change to a CD-RW/DVD drive instead?

    Do I need to buy the Toshiba disk?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Well, you can change the player to another, but make sure that your device is supported by the player. Some CD/DVD players have occupation different pins.
    If you want to buy the car, I recommend to contact the service partner and ask them a compatible part.

  • Can speeds of DVD - I play slower pre-recorded DVD - Satellite P20 801

    I have a Satellite P20 801. I think to buy a DVD burner, so I can transfer VHS to DVD hardware. If I recorded it at a slower speed, would I be able to play on my laptop? How can I tell if the DVD on the P20 player can play different rhythms - assuming that's possible?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    As far as I know that the recording speed is not relevant for play. You can save on the minimum or maximum speed DVD and the DVD can be played on your P20. My previous laptop was P20 and I never had no problem with this.

    HM looks like a laptop computer s hardware problem and maybe that is the reason why external Wlan keyboard don't invoice not the laptop is dead and so the keyboard do not work

    Why the laptop does not power upward?
    Hmmm. issue of goo. Perhaps the AC adapter is dead and can not provide the power of portable and laptop battery is dead too.
    This is possible, but in most cases it s not the reason why in most cases, the motherboard could be defective

    However, only the laptop technician can check the hardware parts and could provide more details
