• Laptop not grateful

  Hacked into my laptop, and I went to Best Buy to fix it. They're erasing everything and resolved the problem. But now, when I try to print something from Word, the laptop does not recognize the printer. It goes 'ding! ' that means he knows that something is plugged in, but when I try to print, it does not mention name of my printer from the drop-down list.

  Help!

  Printer: All-in-one HP Officejet J5740

  Laptop: HP Envy Notebook PC m6

  Thank you!

  Reload you all the software and drivers on the right?

• My HP Presario f 700 laptop does not recognize my CD/DVD drive and will not burn or play CDs or DVD movies.

  My HP Presario f 700 laptop does not recognize my CD/DVD drive and will not burn or play CDs or DVD movies.

  I have a lightscribe, CD/DVD player, and I started having problems about a month ago... I tried to burn a lightsribe CD and my computer told me that I didn't have a CD Lightscribe drive (I!)... then when I just tried to burn the music on the CD, he didn't do it either... Finally a week ago, I tried to play a movie on my laptop, and that does not work either.

  When I insert in the film or the cd, the drive lights up and I can hear the work, but it is as if she has no connection with my laptop and my laptop is not picking up the CD/DVD drive try to play a movie or a cd.

  A friend suggested that I go to the HP website and am trying to download a driver, but I didn't know what to do once I got to this website, and I don't know if it will work.

  If you know how to solve this problem, or if you have had a similar problem with your computer, please help, thank you.

  Hi dynamitenews

   

  1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
  2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

   

  You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

  Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

  If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.
  
  BIOS WARNING-
  Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

   

  I hope this helps.

• HP ENVY 17 TS j078 laptop will not play blu ray dvd

  I just got a HP ENVY 17 TS j078 Notebook PC

  I had to call the assistance that he would not play a dvd.

  They have installed VLC MEDIA PLAYER and dvd movies now work.

  I understand this particular laptop also plays blu ray dvd, I tried several but no luck.

  Any suggestions before I waste2 hours with HP support!

  Hello:

  Yes, this model confirms that it is not a blue ray player, just an optical drive DVD - RW.

  You can see a post similar to the link below where someone had a different brand with the same drive laptop and could not play Blu - Ray discs.

  http://Rog.ASUS.com/Forum/showthread.php?9543-G74S-does-not-play-Blu-ray-discs

  If he were a blue ray player, he has been tagged BD instead of DVD xxxxx xxxxx.

  That's how my blue ray player is tagged.

• Satellite 1900 (PS192E) - does not recognize the CD/DVD

  Hey all,.

  I just bought a Toshiba Satellite 1900 (PS192E) and place an old 20 GB HDD from an old laptop.

  When I boot, the screen is in VGA 16 color mode, it recognizes the DVD player, but does not recognize the CD/DVD when inserted. I tried to install and run the utility "driver robot" Toshibas, but the display is such that I see all of the screen to start the search.

  If there is someone out there who could give me some advice, I would be extremely grateful.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  OK, you have installed the disk HARD of another laptop but too format the HARD drive? I mean if the HARD drive performed from another laptop, you need to reinstall Windows because now you have other hardware installed.
  What version of Windows is it?

  If you want to install a driver for the graphics card go into Device Manager and select Update driver.

• Satellite L30: reader will not read CDs or DVDs

  In the evening, I was recently testing on various operating systems on my laptop and eventually decided to return to Windows Pro.
  It was working fine until a couple of days, but then the hard drive started making a rattling noise, like R/RW head stuck.

  Now it will not read CDs or DVDs, can someone please help and tell me if it's a failure of the software or hardware, and the best way to fix it?

  Hello

  The drive problems are not uncommon and may still occur.
  For the most part the purpose of calibration training does not work correctly.
  The objective must be calibrated in the correct position until the player will read or write to the media.
  This fault is not reperable and especially the drive needs to be replaced!

• Tecra M5: DVD player does not read these mini DVD

  I have canon handycam dvd and mini dvd works on it. A month back I recorded the movie and photos on mini dvd with handycam and ran mini dvd on my tecra M5 player, it worked very well.

  Now after 1 month, I have 5 mini DVD with movies and photos that I took for 1 month of vacation country of diffierent, I tried my best but tecra dvd player does not read these mini dvd, label appears instead dvd player cd player when I put the mini dvd in there.

  All the other standard size DVD, CD works good about it. Its complex and as well as irritating.

  Any suggestions?
  Why his messedup?

  Seems that the lens cannot read this miniDVD s. Maybe cannot calibrate the lens of the drive and the miniDVD is so illegible.
  Try the sascha. Maybe you are a lucky man, and it works.
  If this is not the case, try to remove the drive physically from the laptop. Restart the laptop without the drive. The BIOS and Windows shouldn't t recognizes the drive.
  Then stops again, put the drive in the notebook and the startup of the device.
  The laptop should recognize the drive and must indicate the firmware again.

  I don't know if this will help but it s attemptable m

• Satego X 200 - 21 d: drive DVD TS-L632D is not read and burn DVD-R DL

  Hallo,

  I have problems with my DVD SATEGO X 200 - 21 d
  TS-L632D read a burn only DVD-R DL discs.
  I contacted Toshiba support via e-mail and asked
  for a new disk firmware, but the answer did not solve my problem.

  There are only updates in the download area of toshiba,
  but not for my car model. I can send my laptop
  for the money to a service partner, to check this problem.

  I do not understand this! I bought a laptop upscale
  for 1,700 EUROS and there is no support for the update of the firmware
  available to solve problems with newer drives?

  If I get this problem in the WEB, there is an a large number of
  questions and problems with playback and engraving
  Discs DVD-R DL with this drive model!
  How is it possible?

  I hope for some advice to get an update of the firmware player
  to solve the problems of reading and writing DVD - R DL discs.

  Janni J. Gettings of Germany

  Hello

  I found the update of the firmware on the European driver Toshiba page!

  Satego X 200 - 21 d seems to belong to the PSPBEE and the Toshiba page provides the update of the firmware to TO02.
  It s for the TS-L632 reader.

  But generally not all CD or DVD of all manufacturers is fully supported.

  My knowledge of the user manual should provide a details and info on compatible and tested media.
  Using recommended media, you can be sure they will be compatible and will work 100%.

• Satellite A100: Does not start a recovery DVDs

  Hi guys.
  First timer here.
  I have read some of the Q & A on reboot problems the A100 since the recovery DVDs.
  It seems I have the same problems as keith.

  I want to start all over again the OS and my laptop does not start from the DVD.
  Tried the standard f12 boot from cd option. tried her "hold C on the boot option.
  Both options end with no joy.

  The screen that says "loading ramdisk image", loads the machine breaks, asks me to wait, then every time the same thing.
  The screen goes black, flashes very quickly and white and then loads from the hard disk as normal.

  Now try to hold my frustration and do something radical.
  I know that in the Q & A previous, the subject is considered as replied...
  other options?

  My following thoughts are to delete/uninstall almost every thing and try and force the thing to boot from the DVD.
  have also copied the dvd and tried to boot from the copy, always with no joy.

  Are there any other suggestions?

  Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?

  is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?

  is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?

  see you soon,
  Martin

  Hello Martin

  To be honest, it's pretty strange question. There is one thing I am interesting for:
  Is - this first time, you try to use a recovery media for the installation of the OS?

  If possible, try to get the Microsoft CD/DVD facilities to see if the same thing will happen.

  In any case, I will try to give you answers to your questions.
  > Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and to start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?
  It will not work. On the recovery of the media it is recovery image and this image must be installed correctly. You cannot "recover DVD in there. Not question

  > is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?
  I would like to know what you understand under the 'essential processes?

  > Is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?
  You can't do this somehow. If you want to 'reset' HARD drive, you must delete the existing partition or delete any OS installation. After having done that, you need to install new OS. All this will be done at the beginning of the recovery procedure.

  I really don't understand what's wrong there. Please answer to my first question, and we will continue this discussion. ;)

• Satellite Pro A60 will not start up CD/DVD

  I have the above and it does not start from cd/dvd. I know that the cd/dvd is bootable and works well. I can boot from the floppy drive and access the cd/dvd without problem, but that dose not allow me to load windows XP. If this is not the drive or the cd/dvd. So what is the problem?

  Paul

  Hello

  How did you try to boot from the CD drive?
  Have you tried to press the C key immediately after starting the laptop?

  Alternatively, you can press F12. The start menu should appear and you should be able to choose the drive as a boot device.

• Satellite U200: I am not able to burn DVDs

  I have a problem with the DVD writer:

  Since I formatted (and then reinstall with the restore CD that was with the computer at the beginning), I am not able to burn DVDs!

  How can I do to get that!

  And also, it's weird, instead of showing a DVD player, there are 2: one for the CD, a DVD, when it's the same thing...

  I am able to read the DVD, but I am not able to burn them :(

  > And also, it's weird, instead of showing a DVD player, there are 2: one for the CD, a DVD, when it's the same thing...

  It's very strange it s confusing two s WEIRD appears in MY computer

  What you could do is remove the player of ODD (CD/DVD) Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
  Please check if the CD/DVD would be recognized correctly after reinstalling again.
