  • Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-M1612 cannot read a burned disc

    Hello

    I have a problem. I wonder if anyone can help please.
    I tried to view a DVD-R on my pc using my dvd player which is a Toshiba DVD - ROM SD-M1612, but it keeps giving me the same error message:
    Windows cannot read from the disk, it is may be corrupted or in a format that windows recognizes.

    The disc was burned on another computer and plays very well on this and on a normal dvd player, so I excluded that the disc is damaged.
    After talking to some people, they suggested me update called firmware?
    I looked at this and can't find it anywhere on Toshibas support or downloads pages feel like looking for a needle in a haystack :)

    I have provided this figure as it apparently is the firmware that is currently installed on the pc.
    I wonder if anyone knows where I can get the current version and if it will help me perhaps discovered the burned DVD-R.

    Hello

    Sometimes this happens to me also, and to be honest it's nothing unusual.
    All CD or DVD is supported by the CD/DVD drive.
    I put t know what laptop you have, but in most cases the user's Guide provides information and details on the mids compatible and taken in charge.

    I ve experience with TDK CD and DVDs and I convinced Mr. I ve tired different CDs and DVDs from various manufacturers and all were not entirely compatible.

    The update of the firmware is not always a solution, but it is sometimes useful to improve compatibility. The update of the firmware can be downloaded from the Assembly of the computer.
    It seems that Toshiba provides updates of the firmware for the series of notebook clean on the European driver Toshiba page.

    To cut a long story short, try a few different CD or DVD from different manufacturers and check what support is no longer supported.

    Good bye

    In my opinion, the only thing you can try is to clean the lens. This has happened with any DVD or CD?

  • HP Compaq Desktop 6000 Elite: Replacement DVD-Rom drive with HP DVD + RW/CD-+ RW

    OK, I have a HP 6000 Elite with a DSVD-Rom (Multi Player) drive.  I would like to replace this drive with a model HP DVD + RW / CD + RW #447310-001. Drive TS-H653 410125-501.    Search for cases iside the PC, I find there's black wire to one (1) and a 1 connector with 2 black, a yellow, a red son.   No one knows it is all the cable/connector that is required for the DVD + RW / CD + RW drive market?

    I read where it is a connector cable BLUE on these units.  If so, where I buy this cable?

    Thank you

    Hello:

    Yes, you just put the existing cables from the old dvd drive to the new.  Nothing else is necessary.

    You can consider a used but tested and working one on eBay. Saves a lot of $$$ than buying again at HP.

    There is no special driver for the optical drive of your computer laptop just the drivers Microsoft standard supplied with the XP operating system.

    Make sure you have the "Enable CD writing on this drive" box checked for your optical drive. You can check this by selecting my computer then right click on the optical drive, select properties and then click the recording tab.

  • My Vista Upgrade came with Toshiba Upgrade Dvd Rom

    Finally after all the hassle of Commander today 18 April 07 I finally received my upgrade.
    The pack has two drives, one is the windows vista, the other is a toshiba dvd rom upgrade step-by-step, pack also has a mode of employment in seven languages,

    The discs themselves come in these paper envelopes cheap with the license on the watch of return sticker if you don't throw the envelope if you put your now valuable discs in a good cd/dvd case.

    The only thing I don't understand is the pack arrives second mail in an envelope padded cheap displayed to the United Kingdom.
    How to post to and administration fees is so high, oh well you live and learn, and continue to be at the mercy of large companies that can charge whatever they want.

    good luck to anyone waiting for them.

    Thanks for this information, it might be useful to everyone who ordered these updates and wait to receive the Vista CD s (s DVD)

  • Satellite 1400-503 with a DVD + R problem

    Hello

    I have a problem with my dvd - rom. family have burned me a dvd + R. Now I can't play it on my laptop. So I tested a dvd - R and it works well.

    A friend of mine told me that I can change some configuration of something like that, then I can play both formats. Can someone help me with this?

    Hello

    I don't think that it is a parameter to change. The reader must support the format.

    It's not very often if the machine is not very very new. If you get this problem with the player integrated to your Sat1400-503, and it is not replaced by someone not supported, so I'm very sure that it does not support the DVD + R format.

  • 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.
  • T430 i5 series with DVD-ROM: looking for replacement information DVD...

    Greetings. Considering buying a refurb T430. It comes with a DVD-ROM. It seems to me, from what little I can do without the model number of machine or DVD part (s), that the device is a standard slimline SATA drive. I had the chance before with swapping the Panel/Panel before these readers when I had to make a replacement.

    Riddle me this Batman:

    (1) can I use a generic DVD - RW drive?

    (2) someone can me the Lenovo replacement PN so that I have one can hunt down on ePay?

    Don't want an expando Bay, and I don't want to use an external. Thank you!!

    Received a DVD burner yesterday, bought from Epay. Perfect shape, size and function. Aesthetically perfect. Only $15 USD. There are many many numbers of parts that are compatible and the permutation of the bezel is easy peasy.

  • Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t: problem with the new HP DH16D5S DVD ROM drive

    My office is a HP Pavilion Elite HPE-170 t.  I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  I have two HP optical dirives, one is a writer, and the other is just a DVD ROM  Both have always worked perfectly with Windows 7.  After you have installed Windows 10 continuous burner work very well works correctly with autoplay.  However, the DVD - ROM, HP DH16D5S, immediately began using autoplay.  Actually the drive was not yet recognized as a drive when you view the drives in the file Explorer.  Finally, it would seem, sometimes taking also longer than 5 minutes or more before doing so and then would work very well.  I tried different types of media, including music CD, DVD video and DVD software with the same results.  I assumed that it was a problem with the drive, maybe a bad capacitor, etc., which was originally not start correctly.  So I ordered a new DH160D5S, but which seems to have been a waste of time and money, because it does exactly the same thing as the original.  I even changed the cables autour between it and the burner, but it made no difference.  The burner still works fine but not DVD ROM.  I tried to find a more recent driver for it, but had no chance.  I found on a Dell website for this drive which was an update of the firmware for Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not for Windows 10.  I advanced and downloaded, but when I tried to run, I got the message: "your system does not meet the minimum requirements for this update.  Update has been canceled. »

    I want to try a different brand of DVD ROM, but would have to buy one without knowing if it would help.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Since I posted this message I discovered that there is a driver problem with this DVD ROM.  There's no driver available yet to make the drive compatible with Windows 10.  Since then, I returned the drive and replaced by another brand that is compatible with Windows 10.

  • DVD - Rom SD-M1712 is able to burn discs double layer?

    Hi, I have a pc compaq, with toshiba dvd players. DVD - rom SD-M1712. I have windows xp. I was doing a holiday film that is too big to go on a 4.7 GB dvd + r disc (which I have done before) so I thought that I had nothing better to do that to buy a larger drive so I bought a pack of 10 dvd + r dl discs. The drive does not recognize them and I don't know if it's because they are double-layer.

    I don't know what that means in terms of anyway, but don't understand why it won't work.

    Can anyone help. Karen

    Hello

    I googled around and found this page on the SD-M1712:

  • Tecra S1: DVD ROM not recognized burner (Plextor PX-608AL)

    Hi all

    I bought a DVD ROM Writer (Plextor PX-608AL) that is not recognized by my Tecra S1 with XP Pro.

    I installed the latest BIOS v2.50 as well as the latest Windows patches.

    To the search, in the Setup of the BIOS (ESC during startup), the drive is not available.

    I tested the drive in my old non - Toshiba with Win2k laptop with no problems.

    Mounting frame is also OK (tested with the original Toshiba DVD ROM)

    Y at - there a trick to getting a 3rd disc part DVD working in a Tecra notebook?
    What is generally a problem

    Thanks for reading my ad and you answers or advice

    Klaus

    Hello

    It won't be very easy get your new work of drive on your S1, I will explain why:

    Most DVD players for laptops (including your Plextor 608AL) do not have jumpers to set
    their place according to the requirements of the laptop.
    Three settings are available: master/slave/CableSelect

    Most Toshiba laptops require the CD to react as a secondary master drive, unfortunately
    a disc factory settings in bulk comes as a disk Primary Master or CS.

    There are two options how to get to missing jumpers to make it work.
    (1) thanks to a new firmware patch that has this option defined by the software based on Toshiba standard or
    (2) by a bridge of material on some pins to the back of the drive.

    As you can see, both options will cancel the guarantee of the reader and are not easy for a techie/technician.

    As for option 1) on the search for a suitable firmware... no there are none available now. I checked the official site of Plextor, but also sites of patch firmware... NO CONCLUSION.
    According to another Forum, business Plextor responded to a request for a firmware adapted with this answer:

    start of quote:
    Dear Sir.

    The drive is detected beeing as a master drive.
    This setting cannot be changed. Are there no rider to do so.
    How mount you the device to your laptop, it's up to you.
    It of different for every laptop and either found in the manual of books or you can request that information from the manufacturers for your laptop.

    Kind regards
    end quote (source: http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=199145 )

    As in option 2), it requires some skills with soldering and I do not think that this forum is suitable for me to explain this procedure. You should google around to find the procedure "pin 47 ashore" on your own, taking all the risks of losing the warranty and/or the drive on your own.

    Concerning
