Portege R100: Problems with CD/DVD Lacie USB 2.0 drive

Hello everyone, this is my first post here.
I'll most likely be a regular here I come to buy a R100.

I am having trouble with an external hard drive that I bought especially for the R100,
It's a Lacie CD / DVD burner, model number: 300819EK.

This unit can be powered by AC or by using the two usb ports.
I use two usb ports.

The R100 recognizes the Lacie, and in the Device Manager list, the drive is then
in the list, but he is listed as a drive of Toshiba.
I'm assuming that this disc of Toshiba external hard drive, you could buy for use
with the R100.

The Lacie drive works, but it seems preloaded the R100 CD / DVD
pilots are contradictory in some way and is made using the player very touched and don't miss.
He often gets 20% about a facility, then crashes.

Is there a spare driver I can download that I can replace the toshiba
drivers with?

As if by having the Lacie 100% functional means there is obviously a
How to overcome the problems.

Hope you girls and guys can shed some light on this for me.
Thank you.

Hello, Larry

You will be very happy if someone will be able to give you some explanations in this regard. I can tell you more: the fact is that this model is created and tested to work with Toshiba compatible external devices. Because of this, Toshiba built in all the necessary drivers in the operating system preinstalled. It should help the installation and also drive fast and quick recognition.

This does not mean that you MUST use discs from Toshiba. Of course you can use what you want, but the only problem can be when you try to install the OS. Toshiba recovery image contains drivers for Toshiba drives and recovery procedure will work without any problem because the external sides will be immediately recognized.

I recommend to visit the Lacie support page and check if you can find some driver it. Toshiba has nothing to do with it, if you use a third party product.

Often, he gets 20% approximately of a plant then crashes sorry but I t did not understand what you mean with it and what you mean with 20%. Second part of your ad is very confusing and I really don t know what you mean.

Good bye

  • SOLVED problem with my DVD/CD _

    Hello

    I have a problem with my DVD/CD. Although Device Manager says, "this device works properly.". It does not at all.

    I'm very suspicious of the cable connections. The cable has been severely pinched by my grandson. It did not close, and instead to find the cause, he forced its closure.

    So what I want to know is if I can buy the cable online and install it myself.  I have searched but cannot find a place to buy one, and although I searched on the Dell site, I couldn't find anything there either.

    Thanks for reading...

  • Satellite P30 turn off - also problems with burning DVDs

    Hi Please help me.
    I had a row with my brother and it won't help.

    My Pc is only a year old and it turns off. I would say it was because of overheating, but he just did and it isn't really that hot.
    I put on the books, not on my knees, keep him away heat, crash back to the desktop.
    It makes me crazy, please, any help or advice or anything like that would be a great help.

    I also have problems with my dvd burner, always, he gets to about 17% and said that there is a mistake, thought it was the discs but surely it can be all 100 of them, I tried turning on and off but no use.
    Also the advice would be great!

    Please help a girl in need of a working Pc! Who does not know a lot of technical stuff!

    Hello

    Overheating problems usually occur because the cooling module cannot work properly.
    Fans are unable to work because of the dirt and dust inside the laptop.
    The best way to clear the fans is to use the vacuum cleaner.

    On the problems of DVD writer: well, it's not easy to say why it happens. Have you checked media dvd from different manufacturers? Many CD/DVD media works differently, and you should check it out.
    In addition, there is a problem with the burning software. I put t know what application you're using, but you should try to use Nero. It's very nice software and I m very happy. Check it out

  • Having a problem with my DVD player with regard to media playback

    Hello

    I have recently had problems with my DVD ROM read drive media correctly, when I put in a computer game (lets say Star Craft 2 as an example at random) Autorun makes me up some options and says it's an image and request either 1.) Open the files and view them, or 2.) See all photos in Windows and some other similar options.
    It will not recognize the game as a game and will not bring up the menu to install the game or whatever it is, sorta solve this problem I put the automatic run settings so that it opens files in the photo (since it is the software game image processing) and once he opens the folder I click on the installation program manually.
    I checked my driver to ensure that it is up-to-date.
    For any help or suggestion will be welcome.

    SOLVED!

    I found out with a little research it was Vista blocks the autorun.inf files in games and keep them to read and run the .exe files automatically and so he held a photo, thank you for the help and suggestions.
  • Problems with the DVD on Pavilion dv6-2010sa

    HP Pavilion dv6-2010sa laptop computer (under Windows 7 x 64), I bought less than a week ago.

    I started the disk recovery software to back up my OS in the event of future disasters.

    I used a DVD + disc, so it would take 3 discs to do the recovery disks.

    First DVD completed successfully. Software asked me to enter the disk 2.

    This is where I started to have problems.

    Drive recovery software couldn't recognize my blank dvd +.

    The drive makes a lot of noise, but then stopped making noise.

    I tried a few other DVDs +, but to no avail.

    I rebooted the computer laptop and tried but same problem.

    So I tried to play a dvd movie to see if it was the disk recovery software or the dvd player.

    He would not play a dvd movie.

    I also tried to play an audio CD but the same problem.

    The drive icon appears in Windows Explorer, but does not display any info (or open the CD / DVD) when I have a CD or a DVD in there.

    So it seems to be a problem with the DVD-> grateful not any CD / DVD

    If someone can advise?

    PS. I searched the driver DVD (so I could Reinstall driver) but the HP Web site does not contain the driver for 2010sa (DVD software only)

    Thanks in advance

    Problem solved.

    Uninstall the device dvd player:

    -Device Manager > do a right-click post dvd/cd player > uninstall the device

    Restart the laptop and OS will reinstall the driver and the DVD/CD drive should start working again (well this is what has happened to me)

  • Problem with still DVD CS6. Cancellation writing disc

    Hello. I need help - I have a problem with Encore DVD CS6. When the DVD disc is written the end of the process program cancel displays this text: "Still could not complete the operation due to an error in hardwar (detection code 40902)" it is in mac os. In windows, the problem is the same but the detection code is 300200. What is it?   Disk space is sufficient.

    As a test, generate an image rather than burn them to a disc.

    Sense errors are usually, but not always material.

    You use the same drive (external?)? Are you using the same disks? (Sense code errors can be disks.)

    Many of us don't burn ever with still, using ImgBurn for PC or for Mac toast.

  • Portege M700 - problem with Dynadock

    I can not change the resolution on a screen connected Dynadock and cannot save the display settings of all - how to fix this?

    I have a Portege M700 running Vista Professional SP1 - mainly the machine is used as a desktop replacement, connected to a screen Viewsonic 19 "wide through the Dynadock DVI - when it is connected so I have the laptop screen is off and use only the Viewsonic at a resolution of 1440 x 900. I had been bothered by the fact that whenever the resumption of the screensaver, the resolution would drop down to some lower State (I was not able to identify the dimensions he thought he was using but probably 1280 x 800, the default resolution of the internal display).

    I tried to solve this problem with the technical support level 3 without success. I thought I was smart and try to install the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver update that is located on the Intel Web site (if you're just trying to install this software, Vista won't let you, but if you unzip it and manually update the drivers it works). This resulted in the connected screen Dynadock is off completely - no signal! So I uninstalled the drivers, reinstalled the drivers Intel original, but now, I have no the ability to adjust the resolution on the Dynadock login screen - and it is defaulting to something that's not going to (too broad and not high enough)!

    I lived several cycles to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the graphics card (Mobile Intel 965 chipset) and the Dynadock; I updated the drivers Dynadock with the latest download from the website of DisplayLink, tried all sorts of drivers for the monitors associated with DisplayLink, tried several restorations system (which have all failed, which was also quite disturbing but less than an immediate concern), etc. Through all this, there is absolutely no way to choose the correct resolution of the screen through the display properties (my choices are 800 x 600, 1024 x 768 and 1280 x 800), and even simply activate an additional screen translates to nothing happens - the new settings do not stay after hitting "Accept" or "OK". I thought that I had licked when I realized that I had to uncheck "Extend to this monitor box office" to screen internal laptop - indeed I was then able to choose 1440 x 900 for the Viewsonic and everything was good, but everything came back after reboot. Of course, now when I try to repeat, I am unable to uncheck this box not more for the internal screen (well, actually, I can uncheck, but when I hit "apply" or "OK" it simply gets selected again).

    All this comes after I spent weeks trying to get this machine to work with the port replicator, which also did not work - a problem that appears to be from an incompatibility with Vista display card drivers and the port replicator (would have been nice if it sales had told me that when I bought the thing, but I digress...)

    In any case, it seems, as it is a Vista problem, I've seen this question asked of other portable devices vista and displaylink other advice, but I know it's possible to have a working reasonably OK solution since I've had one before I went and it messed up trying to work perfectly. Serves me right for spend 3 k $ on a machine and expected that it works as described, I guess. If anyone has any ideas... my next step is probably a downgrade to XP Pro, and then if that does not work, I'm tempted to break into pieces. Or, if someone's figured out how to get the port replicator to work with a M700 Vista, which is actually a better option for me...

    Hello Tony

    It's a very long story, but I use Portege M700 with Dynadock DVI (PA3542Y1PRP) and have no problem at all. After reading your ad I tried changing all the display options and I didn t notice something strange. It works well.

    Read your ad I see you tried to install different things and I wonder not to have so many problems. The best solution for you is to install the new OS using recovery image. Do the clean install of OS and install later Dynadock Utility 2.3 c. be careful while installation is running and do not interrupt the procedure of facilities. Make sure that all software components are installed correctly.

    When you start installation Dynadock Utility Dynacock can not be connected. When you see the window where you will be asked to connect Audio device USB connect the Dynadock to the USB port of your favorite. I use the USB port on the back.

    I use the external display to monitor LCD 22 with a resolution of 1680 x 1050. In the settings screen is display number three and when I click on it I can set the resolution to the maximum level (native resolution). The image is perfect.

    I tried the same as you:
    -Set the external display as primary monitor (for computer laptop LCD was OFF)
    -J' have enabled screen saver and tested several times, but the resolution is always the same no changes at all the
    -With these settings, I rebooted the phone several times as well as the resolution was still the same no problem at all

    After reboot, I can see the image on the notebook LCD only, to the point where I have to write the password that I can see the same image on laptop LCD and external monitor. A few seconds later, the image is switched on external monitor only and it is the same thing you want to have. The resolution is the same again (native resolution). No change at all and all seems OK.

    At the end I've switched back to the LCD display only. It is also interesting to procedure. As a first step, you click on display number one and activate extended desktop. After that, you will be able to use the option to change the primary monitor. A little strange to me, but OK.

    So everything works well for me and for you I only see an option. Reinstall Vista, install new utility Dynadock (new installations) and test again.
    One last thing: do not connect Dynadock on different USB ports. Use always the same.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Problem with recovery dvd - Win 7

    Hello

    After you perform a clean installation of Windows 10 I had problem with closing down my pc, it's a bug to win 10. So I decided to reinstall Windows 7 on my Acer Aspire M3920 of my recovery DVD made by Acer eRecovery management.

    The problem is, Setup stops and the #1 restore disc pops out after that the files were loaded from disk and is ready to begin the installation.

    This is the message: "there isn't enough free disk space on the drive for the files needed to continue the operation.

    PS: Before installing Windows 10, I deleted all the files and partitions on the hard drive. Maybe it's the origin of the problem?

    Someone who can help me?

    Found a box that prevents the bios to booting from anything other than the hard drive in the BIOS, under Security.  Stupid because it still allows you to change the order of boot without any error message.

  • Problems with the port replicator USB 2.0 after installing Windows XP - SP2

    Hello world

    I have a Satellite M30 742 with MS-Windows XP Professional installed. I plugged most of my external devices to him through a port replicator Toshiba USB 2.0. Everything seems to work fine until I installed Service Pack 2.

    Therefore, starting my laptop computer is an adventure to recognize random port replicator: usually four USB ports are recognized, but the ports series and parallel, keyboard and mouse ports are ignored, with a message "unknown USB device".

    Uninstalling and reinstalling, them or their drivers are a vain effort, since Windows keep ignoring them.

    However, in other occasions, they are recognized without problems (even if windows insist on installing their drivers each time that it finds, even if I have already installed a large number of times).

    Please, you have an idea to solve this problem * boring * problem?

    Thank you very much in advance,
    Ricardo.

    Hello

    what you might try is to reinstall the chipset driver because I think that the USB is connected to the chipset.

    In my opinion the Windows upgrade had changed the pilot USB from Toshiba a MS a. So the Port Replicator is not recognized all the time.
