  Hey everybody!

  Here's the problem: my DVD-ROM won't read some DVDs, it does not burn. In Nero when it start burning error pop up and the message is: Power calibration error

  I tried with all the testers for writer and reader of alerady and they all did not find any problem. They said that the recorder and player work properly. I even reinstalled twice end it always shows me this error and it will not burn or read some DVD Windows Vista (which I tried to read another computer and there is no problem). I tried to clean it with cleaning and nothing.

  I think that this problem started since I've updated the firmwire F103, but I do not know...

  Help please.

  Hello!

  Was the update of the firmware of your CD/DVD drive or have you another one? In my view, the drive could be faulty due to a bad firmware

  But before you exchange the drive, you should try to remove the upper and lower filters in the Windows registry:
  (1) start Regedit (start-> Run-> Regedit)
  2) go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
  (3) in the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key and delete the key "LowerFilters".
  (4) restart.

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite C660-125 DVD player can't read DVD

  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!

• Satellite U300 - DVD player can't read DVD

  I got my U300 for about a year and a half, and now the DVD player has stopped working properly.

  I can play DVDs without problem, but I am unable to read CDs or disks of software. When I double click on DVD - RW on my computer, a message appears telling me to insert a disk in drive D, when it is already there!

  Anyone know what is the problem and how can I solve this problem? Any help is very appreciated! Thank you!

  Hello

  You can try the steps to follow

  -Try to remove upper and lower filters. If you n t know how, read this Microsoft KB article:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314060

  -Remove the drive from Device Manager CD/DVD, and then restart the laptop. After the reboot of the CD/DVD drive will be recognized again. Maybe it works.

  -Perhaps there is dust on the lens. You should try to clean the lens of the CD/DVD drive.

  In the worst cases, the CD/DVD drive must be replaced :(

• CD DVD player: can not read data DVD discs that burned same machine

  Laptop with Windows Vista cannot read data DVD discs that burned same machine.  The discs work on another computer.  My laptop will read CD disks, he did, and it will play DVD movies. What's wrong?

  Hello

  You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD &)
  Burn DVDs and CDs and read DVDs). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 parts to no function
  while others are doing so correctly.

  Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner
  could help.

  Brand of the CD or DVD drive can also be the problem. Low quality (cheap brands) are always
  issue.

  CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the outside edge
  tolerances of the disks. They may be delivered, but it is usually cheaper to replace
  the reader.

  a process that solves the problem.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.

  RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then check the cables
  both ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean the
  power and data of the contacts with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the system manufacturer

  Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and

  Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive

  Seems that the lens cannot read this miniDVD s. Maybe cannot calibrate the lens of the drive and the miniDVD is so illegible.
  Try the sascha. Maybe you are a lucky man, and it works.
  If this is not the case, try to remove the drive physically from the laptop. Restart the laptop without the drive. The BIOS and Windows shouldn't t recognizes the drive.
  Then stops again, put the drive in the notebook and the startup of the device.
  The laptop should recognize the drive and must indicate the firmware again.
