  • Cd\dvd drive does not exist

    I recently bought a refurbished Latitude D430 and partitioned the drive HARD, but in 'My Computer' has been an icon for a reader of CD (F). As the D430 is not a DVD player, I guess a key USB is connected to install the OS and software, then deleted.
     
    Can someone please tell me how to remove the Cd Player 'ghost', that I need to use the F for my score. I deleted in Device Manager but he remains in the computer and when I restart the computer it's back in the Device Manager still with a note of explanation and a specified default. In addition every time it starts Windows tries to install the drivers for the Phantom CD

    It's probably some .iso mounting software such as PowerISO, Virtualdisc, MagicIso, DaemonTools etc...

    Search for one of these programs or similar and uninstall.

    Hello

    It is not rare when you have this type problem so that it can affect more than one/all CD and/or DVD
    readers.

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

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    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 loose 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.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  • Re: CD/DVD drive does not seem to start the DVD in Satellite P750

    My CD/DVD drive does not seem to start DVD, it runs and runs and the only way I can run a DVD (i.e. film) is using Windows Media Center, while the software to install must be enabled in Windows Explorer.

    Anyone?

    Help, please.
    Thank you!

    Have you tried to change AutoPlay settings?
    Open Control Panel and Auto game options. Enable the option Use AutoPlay for all media and devices. Also change other options, especially for DVD movies, software and games.

  • CD/DVD drive does not work after 8 Win instalation

    Since a month since I've updated my windows in windows 8, everything works fine but the DVD - RW.

    When I put the blank cd and try to open it, it gives me error when opening by saying:
    "windows could not complete the format".

    Who's a software or a hardware problem?

    waiting for help!

    This means that your CD/DVD drive no longer works and is not recognized by the system?

    If Yes, then I would recommend checking this Toshiba document that I found on the portal of the knowledge base site:

  • Satellite A100: CD/DVD drive does not appear in the Manager of peripherals and BIOS

    The CD/DVD drive does not appear in the window manager and I can't incert CD
    The BIOS displays "none" instead of "optical device".

    This means that the CD device is dead?

    Hey Micky,

    Unfortunately it's probably :-(. You can try to remove the optical drive and then reinsert it into Notepad, and then marketing and see if it is recognized as a new device.

    Check also that it is not displayed in Device Manager and if it is remove before trying the above.

  • Satellite L500-126-CD/DVD drive does not open very well unrolled

    Hello

    I just got my second Satellite L500-126.
    I traded my first for a new because the ESCAPE key got stuck sometimes and made a grinding sound.

    Now, with my new one, I noticed that my dvd drive does not open very well unrolled and 2 bars of silver metal bit come out with the car when I open it.
    Is this normal?

    Also, when I close the dvd player, I hear a little noise "ping!"
    Like a spring, or something. Is that also normal?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure what you mean by 2 small bars of silver, but the reader of my laptop s contains two metals (runners, railway).
    This is normal and these pieces are important to ensure that the drive can eject properly and could remain in a good position.
    Still, you will hear a short click Open and close the drive.

    So I guess it's ok.

  • CD/DVD drive does not read discs on Equium A100

    My cd/dvd drive does not read any discs be it, white, written or commercially written. It opens and closes and is light to show that he is working on. Device Manager indicates that the device is functioning properly.

    Tried the update of drivers, no update available. Tried restoring the system back 1 day and 1 week and 1 month, then and still the problem cannot be corrected. When I put a cd/dvd in the drive and try to access it, it says: D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an i/o device error.

    Can someone help me I tried everything my friends and I can think, or is it better to send just to toshiba warranty.

    If the solution proposed by James will not help, you should try to remove the drive to CD/DVD in Device Manager.
    After phone restart the operating system will recognize and initialize the disk again.
    After this review of the procedure if you can read, write the middle.
