    Hello

    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    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.

    Hope these helps.

  • Apple won't fix my watch. What can I do?

    Apple Watch does not correctly read my heart rate. It will fall to a 40-hour read in the middle of an intensive training all the time. And no.... I get dizzy not turn white or feel weak when this happens. The watch is nice and warm, I reset, rebooted, not paired and matched still freshly. He was once at the Apple store and had to send it to a repair center that it was returned without be fixed. A week or two later, I contacted the online support with the same question. We went through steps to try to fix it, and since we couldn't, he was once again sending for repair. Now, I just got an email that my watch is returned to me because the service could not reproduce the problem.

    I had this problem once with a refurbished iMac that they made me turn to a service repair 3 times, before finally replacing with a new one. I bought my first Apple computer, a Macintosh Performa in the 1990s (with a printer Apple, Apple scanner and Apple external hard drive), so of course I'm a die hard Apple fan, but it goes offshore.

    ARGGGG! Anyone has a suggestion as what to do now? I'm not buying a new watch!

    Hello

    Apple says that, even in ideal conditions, Apple Watch may not be able to save a reliable heart rate monitor each time reading for everyone.

    For best performance of the sensor of heart rate during the training, Apple suggests you consider your clamping beforehand watch band and he loosen again thereafter.

    The sensor is also likely to give better results for workouts that involve rhythmic (for example running) rather than the irregular movements (for example boxing). Other problems that can affect the performance of the sensor include the perfusion of the skin and wrist tattoos.

    If your workouts involve flexing your wrists (for example what weight lifting, for example), it can help to keep your watch a little higher on your arm, the joint in flexion.

    If you continue to experience problems, for more consistent measures, you may wish to a heart rate monitor external matching / Bluetooth chest strap for your watch:

  • Cannot read the OS DVD, but can read the Diag CD sata disc?

    Greetings,

    Laptop is the famous brick of overheating creatively titled DV6416CA.

    I had to format the new hard drive after the original hard drive fried. (HP says too bad with that in short).

    It now sports a WD3200BVET which is sata 5400 320gigs. I had installed Windows 7 during about 6 months now.

    It was great. Life was good. I was happy. My daughter, wife and mother-in-law all used to watch movies online.

    Then they got a virus that has rendered useless map of wireless network and in the end, I was told by 2 different specialists to give up and reinstall. So I said OK. I'll reinstall with the same dvd that I used last time. But it was not to be.

    Somehow, I can read the diag cd I have but when I insert a dvd of Vista (a real one) it will not read it. He tries, but giving up at the end I tried the DVD (the original one) and also one dvd of Windows 7 on 2 other workstation without problem.

    Therefore, I can not install the OS from scratch on this laptop using the DVD player.

    The BIOS is also sport all options, for example, the IDE compatibility or such.

    Just the phone does not have a DVD OS...

    Thanks for the help

  • My recently installed backup USB WD drive is a show in my computer. What can I do to make it appear?

    I have a Dell D830 running Vista Ultimate.

    Try to connect to another computer. If it does not, the cable or the hard disk enclosure can be bad. Try using another cable first.

    If it shows very well: go to Device Manager, expand Universal Serial Bus controllers, search for your device, do a right click and uninstall, then restart, it needs to be reinstalled.

    If that doesn't work, uninstall everything under USB controllers, then restart your computer.

    As said year, don t worry, the warranty is valid and the replacement should be done for free.

    Hi guys

    I have a C660-125 and its developed a problem with the DVD player. It can read CDs and burn fine CD, but it won't read or burn DVDs at all.

    I used a laser cleaner, I also googled firmware but can't find anything for her.

    Any ideas what is wrong with it?

    The model is TS-L633

    > I used a laser cleaner, I also googled firmware but can't find anything for her.

    I cleaned my alcohol BIZARRE or cotton tip laser lens and it worked like a charm. In your case worth a try too.

    In addition if an ODD firmware would be available, then you should find it on the European driver Toshiba page.
    I checked, but did not find a firmware for TS-L633 means that this firmware update is not necessary.

    But I found this Toshiba document:
    _ODD firmware update to solve problems with the Toshiba creator_ recovery CD
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9C02RP0000R01.htm

    But beware: the document contains files different firmware for TS-L633 on different sides. If your ODD is not on the list, don t try update firmware for your ODD would harm to the use of the firmware is not compatible!

  • Problems with the reader of CD/DVD on the Satellite A350-12j

    Hello

    I just bought my laptop, Toshiba Satellite A350-12j, two weeks ago and am generally happy with it, but I can't seem to read correctly the data DVD.

    When I try to play a DVD that I burned on my data desktop PC, the laptop starts to read, but takes very, very long time.
    When I try to copy the data on the DVD of my laptop, it takes forever (I tried once for 45 minutes and then abandoned) and after a while it starts to claim it can read most of the files on the DVD.
    It is not the data on the disks which raises problems, cause when I transfer those my desktop to my laptop computer on a Flash DRIVE instead of a DVD, files are copied immediately without problem.

    At first I thought it could be due to the DVDs themselves (I use TDK DVD + ROM), or perhaps that Vista was the culprit, but I tried the same exact discs on my friends laptop Medion also running Vista and it is having no problem whatsoever.

    Anyone have any ideas what could be the cause, or better yet, which could solve it?

    Thanks in advance!

    Eva

    > When I try to play a DVD that I burned on my data desktop PC, the laptop starts to read, but takes very, very long time.

    Hmm I think this could be a problem of DVD not entirely compatible.
    My laptop drive s couldn t read or write DVDs from different manufacturers.
    I tested a lot of disks and now I m using TDK DVD-R.

    But it of always different. Maybe your drive would not support this disc correctly, but another disk would be better supported

    I think you should test it simply. There are many manufacturers different drive don t give up buddy
