Replacement of CD - DVD drive on a laptop Satellite of MX35

Hi, the CD - DVD on my laptop Satellite M35X drive apparently broken and never have 'open' a laptop, I'd be happy to help.
The unit is 4 years old and I can not find the users manual so my first request, is their a link to the M35X users manual and / or can someone please SEND the appropriate pages of the manual?
Then, any suggestions of what I should look for a replacement?
Finally, any help / advice / suggestions /... that you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Bob

Replacement optical drive should not be so complicated. In the lower corner, you will find a screw M2 ODD. When the screw is removed, push the reader and then you can insert if of the Bay.
I hope that's it.
Check the drive specs and order a new one. I hope that you will be able to again place.

    Hello!

    AFAIK, you must remove the keyboard first, before you can replace the CD/DVD drive. Remove the screws on the lower side, and then you can push the disc if you have replaced the keyboard.
    It seems to be a bit tricky

  • DVD drive on my laptop is more sees DVD, but he sees music CDs.

    Three days ago my DVD drive stopped recognize DVD, but still sees and plays music CD. I said this is perhaps the result of a file corrupted in Windows. Given that Windows Vista has been installed on the laptop when I bought it, and I've not found a copy on CD when I unpacked it, how can I download or otherwise re-install Vista to correct this potential problem?

    This is probably not because of the corruption of files. Optical drives like that have two lasers; one for the CD and a DVD. It is common for one of these lasers to fail. You can try a cleaning disc kit (sold in office/computer supply stores) but probably you just need to replace the disk. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • NOT READING DVD-ROM and replaced by ghosts DVD drive drivers

    I have an ACER Aspire 5520 laptop with WINDOWS VISTA... and before I continue, let me say that I have been a loyal user of Windows for many years... BUT WHAT ME LOST MY MIND NEVER LOVE! Everything in FACT RANDOM, my DVD/RW has stopped working. First he did on my Windows XP PC and I thought, well, maybe it's 6 years old, time to upgrade. BUT now its happened on my laptop. I was watching a DVD at 8 o'clock in the morning. I go to sleep, wake up, DVD players do not work. I have a multitude of technical knowledge so I did everything that a person can do without breaking the system or files or material damage. There is no error and more it can not find any material to burn or play CDs or DVDs. CODES NOT... and the reason is the following:

    MY LAPTOP HAS A DVD GHOST ON IT. It is not the real player... I have no idea why it is installed, but it is. The drivers are the SAME ones my car needs.

    I have a

    HL-Hitachi-LG GSA - T20N (AARK104) Super multi DVD Rewriter SN/708HP090709

    The computer tells me that it is a:

    HIF 3GMNC96ZWX2 SCSI CD-ROM drive

    WHY is happening. Why is this drive here? Come to think of it, he's always been there, but he never asked me no problem. Never had to worry about this, because I thought it was a drive partioned... but come to think of it, why would you need to support removable partion.

    YES, community of microsoft, I don't want to seem rude here, or be a thorn in the pants of someone, but this is absolute BULL. There is no drivers on the Acer site. NONE on the HP website. NONE on the website microsoft and you guessed it, NONE on the LG site... _, they do not even have the product on the site AT ALL! It is absolutely stupid. There are MILLIONS of us who use these products and help these companies and all THE of THEM do not give enough of fools who are we actually do things that WORK... and I've been faithful to Microsoft. I guarantee to update, and the representative of the customer couldn't help me... especially because she couldn't understand me, but it is another question. Someone please, please help me. How can I make this computer re - recognize this drive and how to prevent this from happening? Thank YOU for your time. I will be greatly appreciated. I wish I could pay you, but I spent only 49.99 for assistance from a representative, who got only to uninstall, reboot and reset... AS I had no FACT THAT 9million times before... Sorry, just angry and purge. :)

    Hey Batman,.

    The reason why you can not find the driver is because the player is no longer supported.

    You can try the following additional methods and see if he has any of it.

    Method 1:

    You can look in the article below and run the Fix It or manual steps to delete the upper and lower filter.

    f. If a LowerFilters value is listed on the right side of the Registry Editor window, click the LowerFilters value and press the delete key. Confirm the deletion in clickingYes.

    g. with the 4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 key still selected, right-click an empty area on the right side of the Registry Editor window (pane window that lists all the values in the key).

    h. Select new multistring value.

    i. replace the default text for the new value by typing the following and then press ENTER:

    Hi Rob

    It is quite complicated to explain how to remove the optical disk drive. Before you do this, you must remove the top cover. The optical disk drive is fixed with two screws. When you remove the two of them, you can get out the ODD of its Bay.

    Sorry, but without exact maintenance manuals is not easy to explain this. It is quite complicated to disassemble the procedure for this model of laptop. Do you have already removed your Satellite Pro?

  • Replace the DVD drive with lightscribe on Satellite M60

    Is it possible to buy a lightscribe for the M60 dvd drive replace a normal drive. I have a lot of videos that I made more certain that I bought and I transfer them to DVD, it would also be useful to label the disks that hold backups and plans that we use. I prefer the direct info disc rather then print the labels and stick them onto the disc printing. I can do the work myself if I get hold of the drive and the driver.
    There is still a lot more left life warranty Toshiba in the machine and I am reluctant to update. I have two other M60s in my office and they gave very good service.

    Thank you Russell.

    Hello

    If you take the risk that your warranty would be voided and you find a compatible player then do it. Sorry, but if I were you, I would buy an external USB-DVD/RW lightscribe capabilities. It s fast enough and he would support lightscribe that you need.

    It's the only option I'd choose, but I would´t screws my machine during the warranty only for some purposes "DVD-labeling"...

  • The CD/DVD drive in my laptop is missing or not detected by my Acer Aspire 4520?

    A while ago my laptop Acer fell and the CD/DVD drive pulled after its fall. I thought for sure that it was broken and my laptop. Fortunately it seems not that this was the case and after that put in does what it normally would, the green light would flash and it seemed to work again. However, I never thought not to test with a DVD or CD to see if it actually worked. Is that recently that I started to use CD for games and other and I found the driver to read the discs, but nothing happened thereafter.

    Well for some time now, I tried to find a solution to my problem. The driver seems to work, but when it comes to playing the discs it do anything more. Some of my other programs such as Windows Media Player saying that my laptop is missing the driver CD/DVD. I also went to the menu of F2 from the laptop to the startup and after looking around, I find that there is no entry for the CD/DVD drive and that the entry is empty. I'm not sure why my laptop can't detect the drive. I tried many things such as the Microsoft Fix It, but ends up giving me an error saying that some components are not well read or something similar to that.
    Any help is greatly appreciated and if there is anything that I can provide for any further help I will do it gladly.
    I should also mention that the CD/DVD does not appear in Device Manager.

    Hi Emmanuel,.

     
    It's a hardware problem, your CD/DVD drive is not detected by your computer. I suggest you to follow the steps and check if it helps.
     
    Method 1: Check if your CD/DVD drive is detected in BIOS Basic Input Output System ().

    IMPORTANT: BIOS change / oxide of additional metal (CMOS) semiconductor parameters incorrectly can causeserious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
     
    Method 2: Follow the steps in the link and check if that helps.
     
    You can also try to contact Acer support and check if it helps.

  • The CD/DVD drive power calibration error - Satellite A100-646

    Hi all

    I have a problem with the DVD-RAM of my laptop. I can not burn cd/DVDs, show error message is "power calibration error".
    Can I fix it myself?
    I tried to change the blank media (CD/DVD), cleaned the optical lens. S.O. Vista Home Premium

    Tanks a lot
    Best regards

    Fabrizio

    > I can fix it myself?

    Do not think that you will be able to solve this problem, because according to the error message, lens driver cannot calibrate in the right position and that's why the drive can't burn any DVD or CD.

    This is a mechanical problem and to my knowledge, the drive must be replaced.
    For assistance, please contact the ASP in your country. They should replace the disc with the compatible and supported a.

    If the warranty is valid should be done for free.

    Good luck a cheers

  • DVD drive does not write - Satellite M40X-175

    Im having a problem with my dvd. I tried to burn my movies, music and my files on a dvdr or cdr, I tried DVD - RW and CD - RW but I do it every time gives error "d:\ is not accessible incorrect function". but when I try to watch a dvd movie or use my music cd, it does not work. He reads. Does this mean that my dvd drive cannot be read and not write?

    [Edited by: admin on 4 February 06 20:23]

    Hello

    Satellite M40X sounds new enough to have CDs of feature writing. Seems to me a HW question but you can try:
    1 - Clean the blank CD with a cloth dry
    2 - blow to the goal and do not forget that there is no dust
    3. you can uninstall the driver from
    -> Panel-> system-> hardware-> Device Manager-> DVD - RAM-> (right click) properties--> driver uninstall-> restarting your laptop.

    If they do not contribute, you can contact a Toshiba authorized Service partner. You can find the one nearest to http://217.45.123.236/toshiba/resellerselector.nsf/WebServiceProv?OpenForm

  • What CD/DVD drive is compatible with Satellite 220CS

    I gave up trying to get the USB works on my win95 Satellite 220CS laptop.
    I decided to load Win 98 but have no CD player.

    We know the internal CD drive for this laptop model.
    I know its old & outdated but I just use it in my Studio to execute TURBOCNC to my milling machine.

    TIA.

    Wow. It's really an oldie!

    To be honest, I don't think that someone here in the forum knows exactly what readers are compatible with this laptop.
    "I think that this series is older than some users here in the forum). Just kidding ;)

    I think you last resort might be the local ASP. Maybe they have a few old documents and Satellite 220CS parts lists.

    I finger keep he's crossed for you.
