    I don't know hoe to set my PC startup to restart from the DVD player. I have a product recovery disk, but not to make my PC open system restore. Help, please.
    I changed my system registry uxtheme.dll and this problem started occurring.

    Put the DVD in the drive and start it.

    You may need to change a BIOS setting to make the first boot device, a DVD/CD player. To do this, when you turn on look for a configuration message indicating what key to start typing - F2 and del are commonly used. The message appears for very long and it you miss, you have to restart the computer.

    In the BIOS, look for a section that contains the boot sequence, change to CD/DVD, save it and let the computer to restart. In addition, some pre-installed systems have another key (usually F12) that allows the user to open the start menu rather than change the BIOS boot sequence.

  • How to make compatible CD/DVD player on Satellite 5000-204

    Hi all

    I see a thread on the replacement of CD/DVD drive on this laptop, but it was closed, so I write this post.
    Most of the recent unit is to select "cable" type and will not be recognized many laptops Toshiba.

    To fix that you should look for a disc for which you can find an update of firmware that change, that he either "reverse CSEL" type, Nec or Optiarc
    If you buy a player that cannot recognize (like me) read below.

    I have replaced the DVD-ROM/CD-RW unit with a Pioneer DVR - KD08 DVD burner.
    This device is a "cable select" type (like most of the other recent unit) so we can't recognize this portable (and many other models from Toshiba). The solution is to connect the PIN 45 and 47 together on the disc or on the adapter connector (this second solution is simple).

    If you look at the car by behind those pins are the second and third from the left on the top row of the pins of the connector.
    The connector adapter, it is simpler connect these pins (carefully) with an iron solder directly on the circuit board.
    Obviously on the circuit, the pins are the second and third from the right.
    After that, the device will recognize ok.

    Hey Buddy

    First of all thank you for the participation in the forum it of always nice to have users who shares experience and knowledge.

    Thank you for this info how compatible CD/DVD player.
    But to be honest I'm a bit skeptical because there is a chance that the player could be damage during this procedure.
    If everyone could do but only at own risk!

    Usually the compatible players are included in the user manual and it would be useful to take a look in the user manual before you buy a compatible player NOT ;)

    Cheers mate

  • To replace the DVD drive with the second HARD disk on the pavilion DM4-2000

    Hello

    I would like to remove my laptop DVD drive and replace it with an SSD. It seems that the DVD player does not use the standard format of pins SATA for hard drives, rather than use a slightly smaller connection. Is it possible to connect a laptop SATA drive this in any case and if so, how?

    Any help appreciated,

    Tim

    You need a car adapter. Your laptop uses 12.7 mm optical readers and you need this card:

    See Page 45 for replacement instructions.
