Qosmio G20 - CD/DVD drive does not burn

Please can someone help?
I rebuilt my qosmio g20 and the thing what it is great except my cd dvd player that plays audio and video but simply will not register.

When the folder now, he says no. RECORDER and when I click on check for other readers of anything.
Select record is selected. Before the reconstruction, it all worked but did not.

I have nero has always worked well even with the sound stuff installed. So I reinstalled nero and nothing.
I tried to delete the upper and lower entrances in regedit, which is a common difficulty that offered among various forums but nothing again.

Sick as a parrot, so glad of any help here... Thank you

Hello

It's very strange
Have you tried to reinstall the OS again?
Try this.

I recommend also to remove the CD/DVD drive Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
Usually the operating system should recognize the drive of the CD/DVD device correctly and must reload the driver again.

I see you are using Nero burning ROM. I know sometimes the BONE can be confusing upward if several burning applications are installed.
So remove the sonic software and use only one. Nero.

Best regards

    The problem looks like a compatibility problems between the CD/DVD player and the discs used
    I had this problem several times, but since using the disc TDK R questions is never appeared again.
    So I agree with Luke and recommend that you try other discs.

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

  • Satellite A200-AH5 CD/DVD drive does not burn any CD

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite (A200 AH3) under Windows Vista Home Premium.
    For what it's worth, there's a T2085 @ 1.73 GHz processor. It is a 32-bit operating system.
    In the Device Manager when I click on the CD/DVD-Rom drives, I get CD/DVGW TSSTcorp TS-L632D ATA Device.
    By clicking on this that I find that the driver is working correctly and up-to-date. I was not able to burn a CD on this system...

    I have not tried to burn a DVD.
    I ran through all the steps to burn a CD, however, but even if he goes through the process to show the progress that each song to a playlist is burned to disc, when the disc is supposed to be finalized... nothing on the disc when I try to read, and with the exception of iTunes or another program open when I place the CD in the drive to be played absolutely nothing happens.
    I tried to burn music on a CD on the desktop of my sister, and it burned fine.

    Then... It is not a problem with the discs.
    When I took the disc to my sister had burned and placed in the disk drive on my laptop, it displays the tracks that had been burned and he played the music very well. This really threw me a loop for.
    The laptop is only a year old and I can not burn anything.

    Unfortunately, the warranty has expired. I am desperate to get this problem fixed. I don't know if he's going to burn a DVD, but I ruined 2 boxes of CD - R discs already. After disk supposedly burned music... even if no music has been burned... the disc is ruined and must be discarded.

    I'm not terribly knowledgeable about aspects of warming of the computers, so I hope you can tell me in general terminology if you answer to my problem. I really hope someone out there can advise me as to what is happening or what I should do to fix the problem.

    Thanks for any help in advance!

    Thank you.

    Hello

    In your case, I recommend trying the different CD s from different manufacturers.
    You should know that not all CD or DVD would be fully compatible with your internal CD/DVD drive.
    In many cases no compatible CD or DVD would lead to exactly the same problems that you described in your post so trying different media!

    In addition, I recommend checking the Toshiba driver for a CD/DVD drive update page s firmware.
    As I m not wrong not the Satellite A200-AH3 belongs to the Canadian series and you should check the Canadian page for a new firmware. Maybe a new firmware is available

    Last but not least, you can switch to other burning software I m using Nero I think it s the best applications for such purposes

  • Qosmio G20 - new HARD drive does not work

    I have a G20 and try to change one of my hard drives of 60 GB for a new 250 GB (Western Digital WD2500BEVS, SATA-150, 5400 RPM).

    First thing I would add is that the hard drive is fully discoverable, formatable, and usable in my desktop... but in my G20s it only detects it in the BIOS but has a status of 'impossible' and my operating system (XP) can't quite see.

    Please can someone help?

    Hello

    You've got a 60 GB and a 250 GB HARD drive in your Qosmio G20.
    Is this good?

    What RAID settings do you use?
    You can check the settings in the BIOS and in the user manual, you will find some details about the RAID.

    If the RAID is defined on the mirror then only the HARD drive would be available and if the first HARD 60 GB disk is then the other HARD disk would also provide ONLY 60 GB even if it s 250GB

  • Qosmio G20-118: Multi drive is not burning DVDs

    Hi guys,.

    This day I have never been able to burn a DVD with music files from itunes (in the form of data) using my G20-118, although I have no problem what to do in my old office. I have tried several different DVDs without success. Everything seems to go smoothly until the last dry when there is an error. I had the same problem that burn DVDs with Sonic. Finally, my drive rarely reads CD of music stored on other computers. It also came with data CD, although rarely.

    Do I have a defective disk? This CD/DVD that you tried and must work on my system?

    Thank you very much!
    Pedro

    Hello

    I don't think it's a compatibility issue with the disks because the player accepts and then displays an error.

    For me, this looks like a bad drive, but perhaps you must first reinstall the driver or the whole system.

    Good bye

  • DVD drive does not burn/erase RS - Satellite P100-347

    Hello

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite p100-347 PSPA6E laptop computer. It has a DVD burner with model number: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4082N (firmware pt06). It has capabilities to burn any DVD (please see example using dvdino: http://tinyurl.com/2hbpqv).

    However, I can't rewrite on my Maxell dvd + rw (1.4 x speed) dvd. whenever I go to a software application to erase a dvd that I wrote on, it says unrecognized format. For example, Nero says "this disc is not rewritable and therefore can not be deleted. Please insert a rewritable disc.

    The disc is rewritable because it says on the cover and also it burns on my friends rewritable dvd burner :(

    Please can anyone help:(je suis vraiment coincé et il serait beaucoup aprécié)

    Hello

    As you probably know, readers don t support all kinds of media.
    I mean not every CD - R, DVD - RW, CD + RW, DVD + RW, and so on, average is supported.
    I can confirm these issues in my practical knowledge I tested for several months and many media, I use the TDK on my laptop and only CD or DVD media.
    They work best with my drive...

    But I'll give you a tip:
    You should remove other software burning like sonic, etc if you use Nero. The joint software sometimes makes trouble.

    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.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    You can probably find more info here and maybe even the exact registry for your CD/DVD settings
    drive from someone with the same model.

    Use DevManView to locate the CD/DVD in the registry (be careful and do a prior Restore Point)
    nothing change) - find the DevManView device and then make a right click on it free in RegEdit.

    DevManView - free - an alternative to the standard Windows Device Manager, which displays all the
    devices and their properties in flat table, instead of the tree viewer

    I hope this helps.
