• Tecra S1: DVD ROM not recognized burner (Plextor PX-608AL)

  Hi all

  I bought a DVD ROM Writer (Plextor PX-608AL) that is not recognized by my Tecra S1 with XP Pro.

  I installed the latest BIOS v2.50 as well as the latest Windows patches.

  To the search, in the Setup of the BIOS (ESC during startup), the drive is not available.

  I tested the drive in my old non - Toshiba with Win2k laptop with no problems.

  Mounting frame is also OK (tested with the original Toshiba DVD ROM)

  Y at - there a trick to getting a 3rd disc part DVD working in a Tecra notebook?
  What is generally a problem

  Thanks for reading my ad and you answers or advice

  Klaus

  Hello

  It won't be very easy get your new work of drive on your S1, I will explain why:

  Most DVD players for laptops (including your Plextor 608AL) do not have jumpers to set
  their place according to the requirements of the laptop.
  Three settings are available: master/slave/CableSelect

  Most Toshiba laptops require the CD to react as a secondary master drive, unfortunately
  a disc factory settings in bulk comes as a disk Primary Master or CS.

  There are two options how to get to missing jumpers to make it work.
  (1) thanks to a new firmware patch that has this option defined by the software based on Toshiba standard or
  (2) by a bridge of material on some pins to the back of the drive.

  As you can see, both options will cancel the guarantee of the reader and are not easy for a techie/technician.

  As for option 1) on the search for a suitable firmware... no there are none available now. I checked the official site of Plextor, but also sites of patch firmware... NO CONCLUSION.
  According to another Forum, business Plextor responded to a request for a firmware adapted with this answer:

  start of quote:
  Dear Sir.

  The drive is detected beeing as a master drive.
  This setting cannot be changed. Are there no rider to do so.
  How mount you the device to your laptop, it's up to you.
  It of different for every laptop and either found in the manual of books or you can request that information from the manufacturers for your laptop.

  Kind regards
  end quote (source: http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=199145 )

  As in option 2), it requires some skills with soldering and I do not think that this forum is suitable for me to explain this procedure. You should google around to find the procedure "pin 47 ashore" on your own, taking all the risks of losing the warranty and/or the drive on your own.

  * Note: I tried the FIXIT button and nothing.

  Hello

  Having too many CD/DVD programs can cause problems, because they will be competing for resources if
  its best to select one or two you like and work with them.

  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.

• DVD - ROM not recognized with setting of M/S

  Hello, I just bought a DVD SD-R2412 drive to replace my dead drive (same model). However, my old drive was CSEL type and this news is M/S. I didn't know there were differences in the same model. This new drive is not recognized by Windows XP (SP2) and disappear the second IDE controller. In addition, it is not possible to boot from the CD, so I guess that the BIOS is also not recognize the drive.

  I saw an exchange of views on the reverse (CSEL M/S, new old) and some solutions for this case, but I have not seen all the comments on my problem.

  My guess is that the drive is configured as a slave and the BIOS is not able to recognize in this position. If so, the question would be if there is a way to configure the drive M/S to act as a master.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  It will be very interesting to know what unit of Toshiba you have. As far as I know, the drive is already set to slave, but I put now on exactly the position of the rider. However, take a look on the label which is located on the drive. You can find a picture how to affect the small rider master or slave.

  Best regards

• SP2100 CD-ROM not recognized

  Suddenly my CD (Teac) is no longer recognized.
  Message in Device Manager - properties:
  Windows has loaded the driver in memory, but can not find the device (Code 41)
  With an external DVD-writer/CD-ROM (HP) on USB and Firewire, I get the same message.
  Starting fron CD is also not possible.
  Any suggestions?
  Paul

  Hello

  41 code means that the driver has been installed successfully, but the material was not found!

  Normally, the material is damaged with this error message, but your external drive has got the same message!
  So, there is a deeper problem with the support of CD player!

  If you set a system point before occure failure for the first time of restoration, start the System Restore tool and return to this point!

  Then it should work again! Otherwise post again!

• Satellite A10 - recovery disk not recognized

  I want to format my hard drive and reinstall windows xp.

  Of course, I have Toshiba A10 laptop with HDD 160g, 1 g of Ram, cd/dvd player and the restore disc (cd).

  Problem: the restore disc is not recognized by the cd player. When I insert the disc, then again, boot sequence goes to hard drive and boots from there

  What I did:
  1. check if the reader sees another s cd. Answer Yes, Yes
  2 boot sequence of the bios checked as well as toshiba consoles set up made sure it is
  in "order"hdd, lan, floppy, cdrom", (I tried other combinations starting with cd as well).
  3. I cleaned the restore disc, didn't work
  4. I ordered another set of Toshiba restore disk, which did not work either, still not recognized
  5. I bought a cd/dvd external reader believe it or not, disc starts to work in this case, I get a warning screen shows all data will be lost and asks me to click if I want to continue, when I click it says will now restart the computer and it does but comes back and goes back on the hard drive and boots from there.

  I must also add; When I switch on I get "' pxe e61 media test failure, mof outgoing intel boot agt" msg, according to my search, this problem indicates hard disk.
  but my hard drive does not work,

  Will someone give me an advice?

  If the BIOS is set to boot from the local network first, before trying to boot from the HARD drive, you will see the error PXE.

  Have you tried to clean the lens in the DVD player? Wipe with a Microfiber cloth.

  try holding down "C" when you turn on the laptop, this will make it boot from the CD.

  My drive Satellite L755 - 16 K BD - Rom is not reading disks
  My OS is Windows 7 (64-bit)

  so, how can I fix?

  Good question. It will be nice if everything should be easier.

  Do you have problems with all discs or just some specific discs?
  Have you tried to clean the lens?
