Equium A200 - DVD drive missing

Hello

My Equium A200 is only 3 months old and the dvd player has "disappeared."
It does not appear in my computer or Device Manager.

The tray will also not stay closed... any ideas anyone?

Hello

The fact is that the CD/DVD drive doesn t need a special driver because the STRANGE simply uses them pilot which belongs to the Windows operating system.

I think you should check if the CD/DVD drive functions. So how can I test?
Well, you can try to boot from the Toshiba restore CD to check if the ODD is able to manage the CD.

I think that whole OS installation is a drastic procedure, but I think he might back allows for the STRANGE.

Good luck

  • Satellite P305 - DVD drive missing registry method attempted

    My satellite P305 lost the DVD icon in my computer.

    So I tried to fix it by using the 'Register' method I have seen anywhere in the forums, but it didn't work as I have found a 'low' I don't think that the name but not the second registry value 'superior '. So now I can't use my PC DVD and I hope that I can reinstall the driver, although I doubt it.

    The computer Troubleshooter said the problem is that the registry file is damaged or missing (before I tried to fix it). I had been using a burner and burn a DVD that took a lot of time to complete the level of 99%, so I clicked to close the program thinking that the information was already coded on the DVD and there is nothing for the program to do but stop, but it did not work and the program have remained frozen. The program I used was called Cheetah Burner, in case you are interested in knowing. So I ejected the disk (perhaps after control-alt-delete, not sure) and probably restart the computer again, to see that the program had taken place.

    So please tell me how to deal with this, soon. I need to solve this young to continue working!

    Thank you

    Ash.

    Hey Ash,

    I think you mean the upper and lower filters in the registry. Is this fair?
    Normally, this should help about problems with the CD/DVD drive but you've already tried this?

    In your case, I would try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager (right click > uninstall). After the reboot the drive will be recognized again and maybe it works.
    In addition, you n t need another driver because it s a part of the operating system. Updated this driver peut t.

    Another interesting thin: you can boot from a disc?

  • CD/DVD drive missing (vista)

    This problem is getting ridiculous.  My CD/DVD drive has been appearing and disappearing in recent weeks power on and off.  I tried the deleting the upper and lower limits registry hack and it seemed to work once, but after a while the disc disappears again, sometimes after the mode 'sleep' and sometimes spontaneously.  Reset used to clear up the problem for a while, but now the drive seems definitely over.  I uninstalled iTunes and Nero, I have because they may have caused problems.  I can't use Device Manager, because the device is not listed, so no way to update the drivers.  I am now at the point where there is much more information that I found Microsoft or from other sources, if anyone has had this problem or knows something, I can try to get Vista to recognize the drive that I would be really grateful.  Thank you!

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

    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.

    Hope these helps.

  • CD/DVD-drive missing when Windows 7 is installed.

    I installed Win 7 32 bits, with a cd - everything works fine.
    But the CD/DVD drive is missing from Device Manager.

    I did a Win 7 clean install and have installed all the drivers for the hardware (all from the manufacturer). I tried some things I mentioned forums, like the one to delete data in the registry. This didn t solve the problem. I even tried to install win 7 again (tried 64 bit as well).

    Can anyone help?

    Solved!  I think so.  I had the same problem - installed Windows 7 on my Zepto 6625WD and Windows 7 could not recognize my TSST SN-S082H DVD player, although everything worked again well under ubuntu.  After several days of intermittent Googling, I came across this fix , which (even if it's for Vista) resolved my problems in Windows 7 - the DVD player is now detected and works perfectly.

    Hope that helps...

    Hello

    This looks like a malfunction of lens calibration.
    It is a fault in general if the drive cannot recognize one of the types of averages.
    Before you read or burn CD or DVD, the lens must be calibrate physically.
    This is necessary because each CD or DVD has a surface of a different nature.

    However, if the lens cannot calibrate there is not much to do. In most cases, the drive must be replaced.

    PS: You can try to remove the drive physically Notepad and then boot into Windows. Then shuts down and put the drive back into Notepad. The BIOS should read the firmware again and possibly the lens can calibrate again.
    But I do not know m it if will help. Anyway, endearing is free, you know.

  • Equium A200 HARD drive upgrade - 15l

    Hello
    I would like to move my existing hard drive and would like to ask the following questions:

    (a) what would be the exact specification to look out for the replacement hard drive, so that I would order the ie.320gb one, but with a greater capacity, even?

    (b) that I expect any problem using the product recovery disc to install the new drive?

    (c) I much prefer to make an exact copy/backup of the original drive to the new drive. As they are not the same size, it would be possible?

    (d) there is a second disc HDD2, what would be needed to allow the second hard drive to install?
    Your kind advise or comments would be appreciated. Kind regards, Philippe

    (a) the new HARD drive should also be a TOUGH 2.5 SATA interface drive.
    You can take a 320 GB or larger. The SATA interface has no limit of capacity for the old standard IDE.

    (b) it's no problem to use the HARD disk recovery disk because it s the same model of laptop.

    (c) Yes, it is possible to make an exact copy of the HDD's (clone). There are many programs on the market for this, but I use Acronis True Image. It of easy to use and I never had any problems with it.
    For example, you can clone the old HDD to new and set disk space each your partitions if you have more like a.

    (d) you must use a second HDD if you another SATA connector.

    Hello

    To be honest, I don't understand. You are talking about the Cd/Dvd drive missing or Dvd Toshiba player?

    Anyway, try this:

    1. access to the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Reboot the laptop and wait for the CD/DVD drive would appear once again

    or

    2 go to the page of the Toshiba driver and download dvd player
