E/s treadmill error * a DVD player - Satellite M30X

I hope someone can help...

I have a satellite M30X, and I started to make mistakes when trying to play CDs and DVDs.
When you try to play a disc I get the error "the request cannot be performed because of an i/o device error"

I have not installed anything recently, the error started just randomly occurring.

Thank you

Malcolm

It seems to be just average reading malfunction.
Either the lens of the drive can not be calibrated properly and the drive cannot read the CD/DVD or CD / DVD are not taken care of and compatible.

I would say that the first, perhaps the gently cleaning the lens will help you but if not, you need to replace the drive unit :(

  • IDE error - unrecognized DVD player - Satellite 2410-504 #1

    Hello, recently I got a rug * a dvd - ram UJ - 831 s Reader installed to replace by my insurance policy in my Toshiba Satellite s2410-504. The car worked well until recently, when I get the IDE #1 error at startup, then the drive does not appear in Windows - Win Explorer or Device Manager. I tried to update the firmware for the recommended: DVD + r / + RW/RAM Drive(UJ-831) F / W revision: V102. But I got the message that the drive is not connected when I am asked to open it. I want to emphasize that I tried this update when the drive is actually (sometimes is just appear randomly, sometimes it appears after the release of the standby mode)

    I also tried 4 or 5 times the resettlement of the drive with no luck. How can I fix my drive? I have read on the bypass and master/slave problems but not too sure about this or if it's the right thing to do.

    Thanks in advance for your help,
    David

    Hmm, it would be very interesting to know if this message appears.
    For me, this looks like an auto damage with a bad firmware.

    > I get the message that the drive is not connected when I am asked to open it
    For most of these messages are displayed if the drive is not connected OR the firmware was bad. I think that it s because of the second possibility.

    Maybe the firmware has changed the master/slave/c-salt settings and now the BIOS does not recognize the disc correctly.

  • Question about CD/DVD player, Satellite L30-10 X write speed

    According to the manual that came with my laptop (L30 x 10), the DVD drive can write CD - RW 16 x speed. However, according to this site (discontinued products) the drive can only write CD - RW at 4 x.

    Could someone please clarify? And is it possible to know what are the different speeds for the DVD player without having to buy all the records?

    Thanks in advance

    Baz

    Hello Baz

    Have you checked the speed for CD - RW you use? Perhaps it cannot be written faster than 4 x speed. Usually what is written on the label of CD - RW.

  • Satellite Pro A100 IO error - CD/DVD player-

    Hi all

    My car does not start or read, all I get is an error of e/s.
    She produced just out of the blue and after trying to fix it on my own I had to turn to my local computer dealer, but all he told me was to send my laptop in to Toshiba for a renovation, impossible to determine themselves what the problem was.

    I saw on the net that the carpet * a player installed on this laptop isn't the most reliable on the market, with similar errors a bit, but unfortunately, there is not too much advice on how to correct this problem.

    Is there anyone out there with a few aces up their sleeve, or the best thing just to get a new laptop?

    > fix it on my own
    As I see that you are trying to fix it yourself and nobody don't we know what you did exactly.
    I still don't know what you want to correct. Either player is working or not and that there must be a reason for it. This reason is known to you?

    In any case, the assignment of pins is not the same for all readers, and if you use some with the wrong pin assignment you will get this error. So, if you want to fix this alternative to find and swap the drive with a compatible. Nobody says you have to use the same model.

    In s manuals you can find a list with all compatible readers for your laptop model.

    Hello

    Someone help on this?

    I have an A-100 and the DVD player has stopped working in XP. I checked the Device Manager and see XP disc but returns this error "Windows cannot initialize the device of this hardware driver. (Code 37) »

    I also noticed that ASAPI.sys is not running in the Task Manager.

    I'm guessing this has something to do with the problem.

    I tried to reinstall the device drivers, but this made no difference. Any suggestions?

    Hello

    Error code 37 means the driver returned failure from its DriverEntry routine.
    You can try to delete the driver from Device Manager and rebooted the new OS should recognize the drive device and initialize the driver again.

    If this is not enough, try this procedure:
    Run REGEDIT and open the following folders:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    -> SYSTEM
    -> CurrentControlSet
    -> Control
    -> Class
    {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    After you click {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} you should see two settings on the right side:
    "Upperfilters".
    'Lowerfilters '.

  • 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.

  • Satellite U400 - failed to create the recovery disk - bad DVD player?

    Hi all

    I have a 13 inch Satellite U400.
    Due to problems with my Softkeys, lighting and hibernation status (any help on thos would also be useful) I want to create a recovery DVDs with the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.

    The thing is: it starts when I have a CD in the DVD drive, but as soon as I put a DVD in (what is needed), it gives me an errormessage that said something like 'another application is using this drive or no disc recording where found in the laptop. 0D00E4-F0-00000000 error code).

    My DVD player does not work properly, I can play movies and the drivers and the status is ok too.
    I noticed, that error code changes, but I don't know how to get the recovery disk creator will.

    What can I do? Change something in the registry?
    I don't know what happened on my laptop, I bought a few months ago - new. I guess that, reset everything would bring my softkeys, lighting and hibernation status back.

    So, if someone nows how to work at least one of the problems, please give me advice.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    Did you create virtual CD/DVD drives with special software? If so, remove the software completely. In addition, if you have installed burning, programs, you should check if they will be started when Windows starts and if so, disable the beginning upward. So go to start > run > msconfig > start. Here, you can disable the start of burning software (for example Nero, CD Burner XP, etc.).

    And what DVD are you using for burning? I have good experiences with DVD - R Verbatim and TDK discs. These are high-quality discs and you should try it too!

    Last but not least, you need to remove the upper and lower registry filters. It is always advisable to the problems of the CD/DVD drive:
    (1) run 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.

    Depending on your problem with the keys to enlightenment that you should try to reinstall the Toshiba value added Package. This determines the buttons of enlightenment, FN keys and other special functions on your laptop. I had a similar problem with my Qosmio F50 illumination buttons and I posted something on this subject in the Qosmio forum that you should try it too!
