Impossible to read some data on my Satellite A100-413 CD

Hello

I bought a Satellite has 100-413 the year last in Luxembourg.
I then moved to the Canada (where I put my DVD Zone 1) and reading and burning CDs and DVDs in both countries without any problems so far.

I came to Luxembourg for Christmas about a month ago, and since I was not able to play the data CD. All of the CD who have given me so far were purchased for the Luxembourg. They include Philips CD - r burned on another machine and also some commercial software CDs such as digital and manual Solution disks that come with a camera Canon photo. In all cases, Windows Explorer says that the CD is empty, but there is no free space on it. The CD will play fine on another machine.

Other CD (Philips CD - RW, some other brands of CD - r, bought at the Canada and Luxembourg) seems to work fine. I can play my audio CD. I noticed that the CD that I have problems with all have a layer of mat label (instead of a brilliant). Could be the problem? And how to fix it?

Thank you!

Hello

Well, your post don't surprise me because I know not all CD or DVD media are compatible, and sometimes it of possible that different CDs or DVDs from different manufacturers don t function and don t run.
I found information in my manual that was preinstalled on the Toshiba laptop and it is said that the unique mediums can not run due to compatibility problems.

Sometimes, the player can not handle different CDs or DVDs because of the problem of calibration of lens. The lens is calibrated automatically and if this procedure fails, then it of not possible to access the CD or DVD.

But no doubt it s only a registry problem?  :|
You must first remove the CD/DVD drive and Device Manager, and then restart the laptop. After restarting again the reader must be installed again. Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

then restart

Maybe it helps

  • Satellite A100-413: need extra Vista driver to use SRS Truesound

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite A100-413. As some or most of you know, this laptop is equipped with Harman/Kardon speakers and requires software SRS Trusound use the capabilities of the speakers.

    I used to have Windows XP on my laptop and speakers were running without any problem.

    However, last weekend, I opted for Vista (business). I found most of the required drivers for Vista. However, the only pilot that I can't find is one for my speakers. I installed the audio drivers, but need an additional driver for the srs.

    Can someone help me on this topic?

    Hello

    There is no any driver for the speaker s feature. What you're talking about is just a tool that allows different sound settings. As far as I know that his tool is called virtual sound. I have it on my Satellite M70 too.

    I checked the Toshiba download page and virtual sound really isn't there. I don't understand not why, but in the past, I noticed that the missing things appear sooner or later. Check the download page from time to time. Maybe you'll find it soon.

  • How to reinstall windows without losing any data on the Satellite A100

    Hello everyone!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop and would like to reinstall Windows. The disc was divided into 2 parts. WinXp Home is installed on the first.

    What happens with the data on the secondary disk if I use the recovery CD? It will be formatted?
    And if this is the case, how can I reinstall winXP Home without losing the data on the second drive?

    You can install the OS on the first partition only and all data saved on the second partition will not be deleted. To do this procedure of departure recovery and after choosing the language button tablecloth call SETUP. It is placed on the right side.

    If I like what you must remember he chose the second option. The first one can be used when you want to create the new partition (DO NOT choose this one).

    Bye and good luck!

    What you mean with the drivers work? Nave that you have installed drivers 'non-functional '? Which one?

    The fact is that the list of tools and utilities for Windows XP Home and Vista edition are not the same because some of them no longer exist. That's all.

    All WORKS WELL drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com for assistance

    Good time of day.

    I try install asp linux on my laptop. To configure X Windows I have to configure horizontal and vertical refresh of the screen (Toshiba TruBrite WXGA TFT).
    Any ideas how I can find these values?

    With respect and graditude, Raven.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I found that the information the Satellite A100-474, which belongs to the PSAA9E series has been delivered with the 15.4 screen "and max. 1280 x 800 WXGA resolution.
    As far as I know it is developed by Samsung and it is a part number: LTN154X3-L06-H0A.

    Did you look in the user manual? I think that the manual provides some useful information under Schedule A; Technical characteristics.
    It should be for information about the video modes as the resolution of the CRT screen, color depth (bpp), and refresh rate (hz).

    I have checked the specification of your laptop and it says that your laptop has been offered with Win7 preinstalled Hoe Premium. So, if you use original recovery image all the drivers need to be installed and all hardware properly configured.
    It is clearly not the case, so before continuing the discussion can you please tell us what OS you use and why you are missing these drivers?

  • WMP can play some mp4 files, impossible to read some, how do I solve this problem?

    I use WMP version 12.0.7600.16667.

    It can play mp4 files (so must have installed the codec requirred file), but cannot be played some I downloaded from youtube.

    How can I fix it?

    Help, please.

    In general, MP4 is just a file extension, and the codec used for encoding defines the format.

    But as you say it is downloaded from YouTube, the issue isn't with the WMP (or any other player). If you use Internet Download Manager or YouTube Downloader or any other software, the problem occurs. This is due to changes made by YouTube in their Web site. Update the version of the software was found to solve the problem.
  • Impossible to read some (not all) with WMP11 avi files or another player with my laptop with Vista, but it's OK to read them on my desktop with XP. Can anyone help? Please,

    I installed K-Lite Codec pack, but it did not help.

    Hi dragon52s

     

     

    This can also occur if the audio drivers on the computer have been corrupted.

    • Use Windows Update or access the sound device manufacturer's Web site to see if an updated driver is available.
    • Use Device Manager to check the status of your audio device.

    To check the status of your sound device

    1. click on Start, right-click computerand then click Manage.

    2. in the left pane, click Device Manager.

    3. in the pane, expand sound, video and game controllersand then find the name of your audio device.

    4. do one of the following:

    ·         If your audio device is listed, but the icon has a red 'X', the device has been disabled. To activate the device, right-click the icon, and then click Activate.

    ·         If your audio device is not listed in the right pane, expand other devices. If the Multimedia Audio Controller appears in the list, right-click on the icon and then click Update driver software. Follow the on-screen instructions to find and install the driver software.

    If you are not able to find and install the correct driver software, go to the Web site of your computer or the manufacturer of your sound device manufacturer for assistance.

    • If you do not have a sound device installed on your computer, install an audio device and then try to play the file again. For more details, go to your computer manufacturer or sound device manufacturer's Web site.
    • If you try to play a file on the Internet, try again later. The server may be temporarily unavailable or there could be a network problem.
    • If you try to play an MP3 file that contains compressed ID3 headers, make a copy of the file and then use an ID3 tag non - editing program Microsoft to remove or reset the file's ID3 headers.

    The ID3 header is a part of the file that stores the album information of the song (for example, the song name, artist name, album name and kind). This information is sometimes called tag. After you remove the headers ID3, Windows Media Player should be able to play MP3 files.

  • Impossible to install the LAN Driver on Satellite A100 PSAANE

    Hello
    Recently, I removed my PSAAN A100 for reasons of performance of Vista and installed XP. So far so good.
    All devices are doing well except the Ethernet LAN. Here I am not able to install the driver, although I downloaded the driver OK with the correct inf file of the Page of the Toshiba Service, unpacked in the new folder. Then I chose this folder when trying to install this driver, but I've always had the statement: cannot install blah blah blah.
    Then I found with Everest that there could be an Intel PRO/100 VE network onboard connection. So I installed this driver, but XP told me, that the machine could not be started.
    What now? There may be someone who knows a solution?

    Salvo Hans Peter Jansen

    Hello

    You have an Intel LAN card, but you may have enough to install a bad driver.
    Toshiba page offers two LAN drivers;

    Driver Intel Ethernet LAN 1000 Pro 9.2.24
    Driver Intel LAN Ethernet 100 Pro 8.0.43.0

    Please check once again which LAN chip has been included and choose the correct driver.
