  I have a computer toshiba laptop satellite my dvd rom is not working, it does not give me the error code 36

  Hello

  In addition to the BIOS settings the player himself could have problems.

  -------------

  This instrument requires a PCI interrupt but is configured for an ISA interrupt (or vice versa).
  Please use the computer's system setup program to reconfigure the interrupt for this device.
  (Code 36)

  Interrupt request (IRQ) translation failed.

  Try to use the BIOS Setup tool to change the settings for IRQ reservations (if such options exist). The BIOS can have options to reserve certain IRQS for interconnection of peripheral components (PCI) or ISA devices. For more information about changing the BIOS settings, see the documentation for the hardware.

  On the tab General properties of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard.

  If you have problems after checking the BIOS settings:

  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.

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed and would like to change to Windows 7 32 bit.  How can I do this?

  Original title: Harold

  Usually this is impossible on computers with Windows 7.  In almost all cases, you need to go to the store, buy Windows 7 32-bit and use the CD to install it on your computer.  This also requires the deletion of your system, you will need to reinstall all your programs and settings.

• I have a computer running VISTA. The CD-ROM/DVD-rom does not work and can not read the CD of the program that I placed in it.

  It won't read a DVD.  It will not read ANY CD or DVD.  I tried 12 different CD/DVD.  This isn't an upgrade to Vista; the computer came "made for Vista" with Vista installed on it.  I had added Nero.  I removed Nero.  I did all the updates. I have not released the driver and reinstalled.  He claims to have the latest driver software, but it won't work.  The computer can see the CD/DVD, but he calls it a 'CDROM '.  It is not the case.  It is a DVD/Cd-RW with Labelflash.

  I did everything suggested that past discussions.  I ran FIXIT program that claims that the drive works properly.  It is not the case.

  I tried to get various programs to recognize.  They cannot see the installed media.

  I uninstalled iTunes.

  Please do not give me the answer of cut-and - paste stock; It does not work.

  Please tell me what to do to make Vista see the media inserted in the CD/DVD-RW drive.

  Thank you.
