DVD player doesn't work after installing SP3 for Windows XP.
DVD player doesn't work after installing SP3 for Windows XP. That it disappeared from "MY COMPUTER". Device Manager sees it, but there's a yellow exclamation mark over it. See the BIOS of the motherboard and it still works in the BACK. I know SP3 is a collection of updates, but I'm not sure that is my problem. I suspect it's one of the more recent cause I have Windows automatic updates is turned on. Thank you.

DVD player doesn't read CD - R not
Got the new laptop 2 days ago everything is going well until a friend gave me a cd - r with a few pictures on it. For some reason when I inserted it the computer could not find, asks me to insert a cd when I double-clicked on the drive in my computer. DVD, CD audio seems to work and I've tried the drive on another computer and it worked fine. Pilot put up-to-date and always the same.
Can someone please help?
Hello
Be sure to get technical support from the manufacturer of the system involved because that player could have alignment or other problems.
While this could be a problem, it may be a problem that will get worse over time. Also more you change
on a new machine more they will claim that it was something that you did. Try many CD from various sources to
determine how serious this is.CD have a tolerance + - and yours could be outside the tolerance just what the disk or anything/much.

Troubleshooting Guide generic for this issue:
Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click

My CD/DVD drive has disappeared / is not recognized
My CD/DVD drive is not recognized. I don't see what may have caused it, the only thing that I changed it recently on my computer is a windows update.
In the Device Manager under CD/DVD-ROM drives, there is a subcategory of TSST corp CDDVDW SH - S223F ATA Device (I presume it's the name of my drive) and when I go on properties in that under device status it says
"Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)
Click "Find solutions to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available."
After clicking on "check for solutions" nothing seems to happen, can anyone help?
Hello
19 code means there is a driver conflict such as two devices attempt to use the same resources.
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.Normally the above will solve this problem otherwise working your way down through them, even if you did

DVD Player & touch screen does not work after last update DX1210 to Windows 8
Hello
I know. I should have checked the upgrade information before doing so, but I have upgraded to Windows 8 about 3 months ago and my DVD player and touchscreen no longer work. I don't know what else does not work.I searched drivers but can't seem to find a.
Can someone point me to the right direction?
Or do I restore to original settings - Windows 7?
Which brings me to my second question. How to restore? I did not have a backup, but I left all my data on a hard drive.
I can't find any help on any of these challenges.
Thanks in advance.
To be honest that I n t have this unit and don t have experience with it but I ve checked Toshiba to THE support page and of course, this model is not supported for Win8. What you need are utilities and tools specific to Toshiba.
In my opinion, if the device is not fully supported you should go back to original Win7 and supported.
I put t know why you didn t follow the Toshiba s advice on the creation of recovery media. From my experience, that the recorded data are unnecessary, and you will not be able to start the recovery image installation.What you need now is the recovery disk. Visit the Toshiba page if there is possibility to order a new. Otherwise contact the closest service Toshiba and ask if they can help you with this.

Hello
I just bought a Samsung NP350V5C-A02UK laptop and I'm having problems with the DVD player.

I have attached a USB DVD drive to the laptop and he could read the Samsung OK restore disc is one that makes me think of a problem with the DVD player.

USB ports not recognized anymore
I have Vista. USB ports and ports that accept cards camera no longer recognize them. Scanner can be moved from USB port to the USB port and works but "Explorer" does not show that they exist. How to recognize camera cards (mainly) as they did before? Windows offers device (camera card) has a problem, but this isn't the case. Card works so executed through camera (USB cable to the USB port) in two different cases with two different cameras. Also plugged on the USP port scanner is not recognized by the function 'Explorer' but actually works very well.
Hello ghpots,
· What happens when connect cards camera on USB ports, it installs the device drivers?
· What are the changes that you made to your computer, since it has stopped working.
When you connect your devices to the USB ports, check the status of the device in the Device Manager. Check if you see a yellow fringe or exclamations in the Device Manager.
I suggest that you remove and then reinstall all USB controllers.
To remove and reinstall all USB controllers, follow these steps:
1. click on start, type Device Manager and open the Device Manager.
2 right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click on uninstall to remove them one at a time.
3. restart the computer and reinstall the USB controllers.
Plug in the removable USB storage device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.
Check the Device Manager to see if the unit under section USB or other devices. To do this, follow the procedures below:
Method 1:
1. click on Start, right click computerand select Properties .
2. click on Device Manager.
3. click on the (+) sign next to Universal Serial Bus controllers and next to the peripheral plus other section.
Look for the USB device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers, or under the other devices section.
4. If the unit is under Bus USB controllers or other devices, click on the reference to the 'unknown' device name, and then click Uninstall to remove the device.
5. close Device Manager, and then restart the computer.
6. If the USB device that has problems with software and it has not already been installed, install the software, now follow the planned manufacturer of the directives.
7 reconnect the USB device that had issues and test to see if it works.
The unit should now work correctly. Continue if the device name is not found in the Device Manager.
Method 2: There may be a problem with the USB port. Try connecting to a different USB port. If the USB device is displayed in Device Manager after plugging the cable in a different port, then uninstall and reinstall the software of USB device driver.
Method 3: Check the manufacturer of the device for support if the device is still unable to display.
Thank you

Equium L20-264: CD/DVD player can read but not burn discs
Hi all
I need help. My laptop cd/dvd driver does not recognize the discs inside. It only happens when I try to burn a disc. She can read but not burn the discs. What could be the solution? I tried different brands, the last time it was Maxell. The manual suggests Mitsubishi discs, but I'm not sure that it only works with the Mitsubishi discs. It can read any kind of disc.
So I'm in trouble, please help.
THX
GaborHello
In the manual, you will find a list of media recommended because this media has been tested and were working properly.
However, I use TDK CDs and DVDs and it works as well.
Juan suggested in another ad that sometimes 3rd applications or DVD copy locks are responsible for some driver problems:
http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=12497What I mean is that it is not easy to give a generally the solution of these problems.
You should try different media, burning software and if it doesn t work so it s is a malfunction of the equipment. In this case, you will need to replace the drive.
