Future of dvd players

Are DVD players still in production?  If they are, is there any information about how long they will continue to do?  I have a lot of DVDs, and since my tachnology access is limited, I will need a player in the future...

Hi all

Sony sell DVD players and intend to continue to do so in the immediate future.

However, we don't make players Region Free.

For the American market

  • Will there be another windows coming out soon with the floppy drives and DVD players.

    Will there be another Windows coming out soon with the floppy drives and DVD players.

    Hello

    Disks: I don't think so. I always keep 25 floppy disks for Windows 95, should be a few thousand disks for Windows 10. Very, very, very expensive to store files and transport.

    Of DVD: would soon come out, new machines will have 10 Windows (who knows) pre-installed or downloaded. You can always find Windows 10 DVD in some countries where users will still have to use dial-up Modem.

    Hope it makes sense.

  • Satellite 1410-902: DVD players that are compatible?

    My CD of Toshiba s1410-902 is broken and I would like to change to drive DVD or a DVD recorder. The problem is that not all CD/DVD IDE drives will work with this Toshiba. BIOS accepts only final pushes some of the manufacturers, but I don't know which.

    Where can I find the list coplete copmatible for this model of Toshiba DVD players?

    Hello

    You are absolutely right. Each car can not work with every Toshiba laptop. Unfortunately there are no public list on compatible players. I recommend you call service partner in your country and ask them. I presume that they have enough experience on the hardware upgrade.

    Maybe you will be lucky and someone improved the same unit but if not call and ask the technicians.

  • Two DVD players showing in 'My Computer' - Qosmio G20

    Hello

    I have a G20 and for some reason, Ive got two showing in my computer DVD players.

    The first is called "DVD player - RAM" and is known as the D: drive. If I put a CD or DVD in the drive, then it appears on this icon.

    But there is also a second called "DVD player" and it is known as the E: drive. It appears not all of the disks I put in the machine. If I double click on it, it gives just the usual error saying "Please insert a disk in the drive."

    Can someone explain the difference here and why I have this second drive?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    On this path, it is not easy to say what is happening here. As far as I know some applications to create virtual drives and I n know not for what applications are preinstalled on your machine.

    Otherwise, you can go by car properties (right mouse button) and click on the Hardware tab. On this site, you will be able to see the type of device.

  • What DVD players are compatible with Equium A60 PSA67E?

    my question; What dvd players are compatible for an equium a60 (psa67e-001001en)?

    background; I did a very stupid thing! while I was at the Japan and about 18 months after buying my a60 in the United Kingdom, the packaged dvd player. I replaced it with a teac dvd player and it worked like a dream! I threw the old disk (I think it was a matsu * has, but can't remember the exact model). in any case, I came home and had a little time on my hands, so I decided to set my machine and corrupted the windows xp registry.

    Now, windows xp runs in the loop, I can't access and I need to wipe the hard drive and start again essentially. I put the recovery disk in, but the computer doesn't read him and desperately wants his wacky way to windows. I believe that it is not recognizing the teac drive that I used to replace the old. I think that if I put an original return type, the firmware can recognize the drive and I'll be back in business... or so I hope!

    of course, all the other tips would be welcome too! Thank you.

    work around? PS a work around, I thought so... copy the contents of the diskette of recovery on a hard drive (using my old computer) can change the current hard drive in my a60 with it... theory; When the computer detects the content during the start-up, it will install xp on another part of this drive and I have a working machine once again. could - this something like this work? any thoughts?

    Still trying to get my CD/DVD drive to read my CD and DVD, I'm trying to follow the advice of Support Dell and get rid of other programs like Power DVD, Nero Burning ROM, Roxio, etc. which could block Windows the drive, but when I go into the Control Panel--> programs-->--> Power DVD uninstallers, he won't let me uninstall it not.

    Don't PowerDVD come on your computer? If so I leave and try the methods below. If not use
    Revo Uninstaller to remove it.

    ============================================

    Hello

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    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.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.
