• Satellite L305-S5919 - Question about CD/DVD drive acoustic silencer

  Anyone know if it is possible to make the default CD/DVD Drive Acoustic silencer silent mode whenever I put a disc in the drive?

  Now, the icon appears in the taskbar and it takes only a few clicks, but it would be nice if I could just leave all the time. My version of the acoustic silencer is 32-bit, Windows Vista and Satellite L305-S5919 2.02.03.

  Appreciate any suggestions.

  Hi pdun459,.

  You must read and inform you on acoustic silencers ;)

  If you open the program, you will see the following:
  + ATTENTION: The speed of the drive will return to normal speed if you restart or out of standby or hibernation. These settings can also be changed by other applications. +

• Equium L20-197 does not burn DVD

  Hello

  I've had my Toshiba Equium L20-197 for more than a year. I have problems with the DVD burner. He is able to play DVDs, burn CDs and play perfectly fine CDs, is not just to burn DVDs. Had this problem for months, I was wondering if anyone knows a solution for it!

  Secondly, a question more than a question. Is it possible to set the "Play/pause" media key to open an alternative application to Windows Media Player? I use Winamp, and it would be nice if I could take a break using this button and I not WMP opens in the process!

  Thank you

  Astiak.

  Hello

  First something about burning your DVDs of problem.
  Have you tried to burn different types of DVDs? I mean if you have tried different brands of DVD?
  I use only the TDK CD and DVD and I am satisfied. But this does not mean that the TDK will work with your hard drive. The fact is that not all readers of support all media.

  In any case, do you have an error message during the burning process? Have you used different burning applications? I only use one program for burning (Nero) and I do not mix the burning software. I noticed that the sonic program installed on the laptop could have a negative influence on the burning process.

  But on the other side, it is possible that disk and that only aid failures.
  Especially the lens of the drive can not calibrate properly and so the CD / DVD cannot be recognized or burned.

  Now the button configuration media;
  Unfortunately, the buttons are configured fix and it is no longer possible to use WMP if audio CD has been inserted or with WinDVD if the DVD has been inserted.

  I hope I could help bye ;)

• Equium L350D - mechanical problem with CD/DVD player

  Hello world! I hope that someone out there will be able to help me with this problem.

  I have a TOSHIBA EQUIUM L350D with a CARPET * A DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA Device like the CD/DVD drive. Recently, the small plastic disc that fits on the center pin and the handles of the CD or the DVD has started to come adrift when the drawer is closed and the rotation starts; It's a horrible grating noiise! The small plastic disc appears to push on the center pin and I tried pressing the home more firmly, but still, it breaks off at the speed.

  So I want to know: is there a way to secure the disc plastic safe? And if not, the only solution is to replace the drive? I don't know how I got into all this.

  Thank you very much in advance for your help!

  I m quite skeptical that you will be able to solve this problem. Check on eBay if you can buy the new driver.

  Replacement should not be that complicated, and it will be certainly simpler to solve this problem.
  If you need assistance with replacing optical drive let us know.

• Equium A60: Some problems with DVD Super Multi Player

  I have problems with my DVD drive. When I try to load anything (CD or DVD) it will open a blank Explorer window even though I know that something is on the disk.

  Sometimes, windows gives me the error message

  "D:\ is not accessible.
  "The operation could not be performed because of an I / 0 error.

  Please, remove the drive from Device Manager. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the drive again. Maybe this procedure will solve this problem.

• Equium L20-197 - wireless connection problems

  Have an old Toshiba laptop Equium L20 - 197, running windows XP Home Edition.

  It contains an Atheros AR5005G wireless network adapter.

  The problem I have is that it will connect to my BT home hub (and says that the connection is excellent), but does not connect to any Web site.

  I added a USB 802.11 wireless adapter g to see if I can get a connection there, and it works very well (even if it is interesting only by using the wireless utility Ralink that comes with it - when I tried with the automatic Windows Wireless Configuration, I had the same problem as before - no internet connection - switched back to the Ralink utility and it works fien again).

  Internal wireless adapter worked fine, but now do not - any suggestion welcome.

  Thank you very much

  Rob

  PS I went to Device Manager and check the updates of pilot, but he told me that he found nothing better than the used version of the driver!

  Hello

  There may be some conflicts between internal WLan card and the new external 802.11 g Wireless USB adapter.

  If not, you should check the configuration of the Atheros AR5005G wireless network adapter.
  In the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab, you can change the WLAN standard 802. 11 (A B G) on the same which is used by the router.

  If the router uses 802.11 G can change this in the Wlan settings too!
  Also check the channel. I put the channel on my router and the wireless network card to 11.

  You can also try to connect to the router without using a WLan encryption. Of course, this should be done only for the test.

  Las, but not the least, update the driver WLan:

  Are you sure that need the sound driver?
  Maybe some settings are not enabled in the--> sound & audio devices Control Panel
  If you want to get the volume control in the taskbar then you must activate this in sound & audio devices-> Volume tab-> check the option called icon volume space in the taskbar

• Equium L20-197 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive

  Hi all

  I recently bought an Equium L20-197 and I thought to install a larger HARD drive.
  I wanted to know what the maximum size of HARD drive that can be installed on an Equium L20-197 (I guess it's 120 GB, as it is on the L20-187 but I'm not 100% sure)

  I have also been seaching for the IDE drives and found a list of sites who have PATA, ATA100 etc. are also the IDE drives? (I checked the wiki and articles all point Yes, but a little more confirmation would not hurt)

  I was also wondering if the HARD drive I install must be brand toshiba (or if it even makes a difference).

  Thanking you in advance for any help you can provide.

  Hello

  Equium L20 is very similar to the Satellite L20.
  Search here in the forum for similar issues. If you want to use the advanced search option, you will find a few useful headings.

  I know, it's that you can use the 40 GB, 60 GB, 80 GB and 100 GB 2.5 IDE HARD drive supporting the UDMA100

  I hope someone can help.

  Hello

  First he must know that the life expectancy of the batteries depends on the use of the laptop.
  Secondly I know this laptop came with a standard battery of 2000mAh.

  On the Toshiba page under Option & accessories I found a compatible battery pack 8, 4300mAh reference: PA3420U-1BRS

  This battery should support a longer lifecycle like the 2000mAh battery.

  By the way; These batteries, you can buy the ASP in your country
