No DVD-ROM after recovery - Satellite A100-289

I recently had my A100-289 expedition in for repair. A few days later the unit returned to me with a new motherboard.
Unfortunately my OS has not started, so I got it from the DVD.

Once you have completed the recovery process, Windows MCE prompted with the "new hardware found" - Assistant, who wanted to install a driver for the DVD drive. Usually you don't need drivers for these, do you think?

After searching in vain the net for several hours, I tried to recover once more, then maybe the problem would disappear by itself, but unfortunately this was not the case, not even after the third recovery.

I tried to install on a clean install disc that I used on my desktop before, just to see if it works and then uninstall it. What can I say? It didn't work anyway :(
I am writing from said computer laptop on which I have installed as secondary to Mandriva Linux 2008 operating system. The DVD player works perfectly here.

I concluded it must be a software problem, which has to do with Windows maybe, there is a way to solve it, but I don't have a working solution yet, although I tried to uninstall and reinstall both driver and drive several times without success.

Any ideas?

Hello

First of all if you are able to install one operating system and then the CD/DVD drive works and surely it s not a hardware issue.
Then you should check the Device Manager after installing the recovery CD if there is no yellow exclamation point.
Then you must remove the drive from Device Manager and should access the registry.

It to completely remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters from the following registry key values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

and then restart the laptop.

Good luck

  • Need driver for the DVD-ROM in my Satellite A100-812

    Who can help me with the driver for the DVD-ROM in my notebook? It's a rug * a UJ-850 s. These days he asks that whenever you load a disc (CD or DVD) if I want it to be formatted. All that s what it does. I tried to find the driver for peut-t, but I find on the Web. Can someone help me solve this problem?
    Thank you

    Hendrik

    There is no such thing as a pilot for ODD (optical disc drive). It uses the standard Microsoft driver. Try please remove the disc from the Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After reboot the ODD will be detected and installed it again. Check please if the problem persists.

    If yes I recommend you to install the driver for DVD-RAM (DVDForm Utility). You can find it on the download page of Toshiba. I use the 3.0.9.0a version. and it works perfectly.

  • Satellite A100-289: after 5.1 Bios Update powerfault on usb device

    Hey, I have trouble after you install the Bios Version 5.1 on a Satellite A100-289.

    First: there is NO external USB device connected!
    After the awakening of the laptop Sleepmode , I received a message in Windows XP the a power fault has been detected on one of the USB devices. A dialog box opens and I can "reset" the device.

    This only happens after that the laptop is awake in sleepmode, perhaps to Hibernate, but not when the laptop starts. It seems that everything works well, but this post makes me nervous.

    Can someone tell me, what is going in this box?

    What about Mirko

    Hello

    5.1 BIOS was designed for Vista but it should (or it works) also with XP!

    However, you could try updating the BIOS with the other BIOS version that is operating system independent
    or / and you can try to disable the power save option for USB ports in Device Manager.

  • Last updated by Satellite A100-289 with a new CPU and additional RAM

    Hello. Sorry for my English in advance :) I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-289. Despite I am satisfied with the laptop, it is possible for me to update, so I have a few questions on this topic.

    Fact laptop support Modules-SO-DIMM 2 GB of RAM? Also, what mobile CPU is supported for upgrade? Is it possible to replace the Core 2 Duo T5500 (default), with a few other Core 2 Duo processor, such as T7400, T7600, T7700? And if I install a new processor, it will influence the energy consume and warming temperatures drastically?

    Thanks :)

    Hello

    with regard to your question: Yes you can.
    Usually your chipset is capable of a maximum of 4 GB of RAM, but due to the limitation of the slots (Slot 1 cannot handle a 1 GB module), you can move only to 2 GB maximum, because your machine has only 2 slots.

    And what with your CPU? You can certainly try, but you won´t have a lot of luck. Excluding the small fact that each machine has it s own system of cooling for the processor which is equipped with this machine.
    the won´t CPU run at full speed.

    Why not? The problem is and now speak from experience;) that when you replace the processor in a processor intel pentium M or Core(2 Duo) system, something in the bios change, then the new processor
    will not properly recognized. And then the old? Nope. After you swap the CPU, you will have to bring your machine to an ASP.

    They have software that reactive something in the BIOS and the CPU runs at full speed. Since then they to the ASP will notice that you tried to Exchange something in the Board of Directors,
    you will face a cancellation of the guarantee and you will have to pay for everything that happens to be broken after the revocation.

    So I propose: update your RAM, but don t touch your CPU.

    Have a nice weekend

  • DVD playback stops on Satellite A100

    I have an A100 - model No. PSAAKKC - VA104C - which is loaded with Vista Home Basic and included Intervideo WinDVD for Toshiba B06.108 v8.0.

    When I play DVD they begin OK but after about a minute or two, playback stops and then starts, stops repeatedly. Program information page shows 1 GB of memory even though I've updated to 2 GB.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Do you have this problem only with WinDVD or other applications like VLC or Media Player too?

    I think you should do an update of WinDVD. I searched on the site of Toshiba Canada but I didn t find updates for WinDVD.
    Search the site European Internet and the search for the Satellite A100. There is an update available and it should also work with your model.

    I have a problem with my RAM secend slot. At the first bank i installt 1 GB 533 MHz DDR2 RAM in the second Bank too. The laptop starts but when I installed the second RAM after the BIOS Windows screen accepts 2 GB of RAM.

    Hello

    > but when I installed the second RAM after the BIOS Windows screen accept 2 GB of RAM.
    This means that you install RAM modules while the laptop is running?
    I m wondering your laptop still works. Normally, you could destroy the whole motherboard and the module.

    Anyway, to me it sounds like that your laptop isn't compatible with the memory modules vive. What modules do you have exactly?
    I have good experiences with the Kingston modules.

  • DVD - rom click on Satellite L750-11W

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L750-11W and every 4-5 min DVD - rom clicks... I'm sure the DVD clicks for the simple fact that the sound is similar to the noise during the closing of the DVD-rom and the sound comes from the top right corner (DVD-rom).

    The HARD drive is in the lower left corner, and it's annoying.
    I don't know why it is clicking.

    Have you noticed the same behavior in the past until you have installed additional software (factory settings)?

  • Partition lost after recovery - Satellite L30

    I had two partitions on my HD (Satellite L30-114).

    I used the Toshiba recovery Cd to restore windows back to my laptop. The CD has not offered me a full mode or an Expert as written here http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ350072001GR01.htm he has just recovered without any input on my side!

    After recovery, Windows does not see my second partition. I used the disk management utility, and it is said there are 17 GB of disk unassigned space (this is my second Partition!).

    Can and how can I restore it?

    TX a lot!

    Hello

    It seems that the L30 comes with a new version of the recovery cd.
    I think that the recovery procedure is a bit different than the old with 2 different recovery modes (standard and expert)

    I know a little new recovery procedure because a friend of mine bought a new Satellite with this recovery CD. He asked me for the installation of the laptop and we checked.

    It seems that you must press the setting button after the language selection.
    If you n t use the button setting for the configuration if the recovery procedure will be remove and erase everything on the HARD drive. I think you didn't configure the settings and therefore all the partitions have been deleted.

    Unfortunately I think that there is not much to do. You the partition has been deleted and it of not possible to bring back the lost data.

    Thank you

    Hi Breck,

    in my opinion there is no way to upgrade the internal CD on a DVD player because the CD player is set up and could only be replaced with the same model!

    Only an external USB or PCMCIA solution would fit!

    Sorry!

  • Can not burn the backup of the data on a DVD - RW on the Satellite A100-200

    Hello

    I did a lot of audio and data cd using Nero burning, but can not burn a dvr - rw data backup.

    Advice please.

    Satellite A100-200 and xp home

    What do you mean with data backup?
    And have you tried other DVD discs? I think your drive is compatible with the player so test drive of other manufacturers.

    So the HARD drive Bay cover must be removed to access this screw procedure is not really difficult, so you should be able to remove it easily.

    I m not 100% sure, but at the bottom of the unit, you should find a screw that holds the road. In my opinion, you should remove this screw. But be careful.
