• Windows media player cannot read CDs and DVDs

  MS supports says my Player DVD is dead and needs a new drive. So, I just install a new ROM DVD and still have the same problem - cannot read CDs and DVDs.

  When I play the CD, I always get the error meessage--(lecteur Windows media a rencontré une erreur lors de la lecture de lecteur de CD en mode numérique...). 'Digital' is selected under the tool-> properties-> device.

  When I play DVD, it is frozen my laptop or keep spinning and froze the Windows Explorer and the reader.

  I was able to read DVDs and CDs once after a few restart. During playback of CD the WMP abruptly stopped with error message and since that time cannot play CD DVD & more.

  So far, I did a few fixs that I found online and nothing wroks:

  * No upperfilter or UpperFilter registry

  * Uninstall and let the laptop automatically reinstall the driver

  * Ms. Fix it gives different results every time I run the fix-(1) detects no problem and therefore no patches have been applied (2) the main media in the CD drive is not readable (same CD has played correctly when using external USB DVD rom)

  Can someone help and let me know what that could be the problem and how to fix it! Thank you!

  Hi Amy,

  You can read the following article to clear the Windows Media Player database and check if it helps.

  You cannot view, add, or delete items in the library of Windows Media Player 11

  If you have any third-party media player installed on the system, then check if the DVD player works with it.

• Portable Satellite 1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require files avi (codec)

  my laptop satellite S1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require avi (codec) files. l have updated dvd drivers and upgrades of my multimedia player of series 10, but nothing helped. I need emergency aid.

  Hello

  I suggest, that it can not ONLY play .avi files. Am I wrong?
  In this case, you need additional codecs.
  This has nothing to do with the DVD drivers or firmware.
  Check the internet for the codec. I'm sure you will find a lot of info if you want to google a bit.

  Good luck

• Satellite A50 543 reads CDs and DVDs sporadically

  I have a problem with my DVD-ROM in my laptop. It only reads CD and DVD sporadically. But most of the time that I dwell in a DVD and it try the bed. But after a few seconds it stops and the DVD - ROM led lights constantly.

  My question is, can I get a new DVD-ROM? Or I have to send it back to Toshiba?

  Sorry, my English is not the best ;)

  Hello

  For me, this looks like a disk failure. After repeatedly the lens can not calibrate properly and so sometimes s not possible to read, burn with different media.
  You should know that internal portable players using different parameters like master/slave or c - salt. These parameters is not editable as on drives for desktop PC.
  Therefore, it is very important that you will use and bye a compatible.

  If you want to know which drive will work on your laptop, so I recommend asking the Toshiba service partner for details.

• Satellite A100 (PSAA8) - Cannot play most of the games

  Hello

  my laptop Satellite A100 (PSAA8) cannot run most games like call of duty... I wonder if I can get a more powerful vga card and install it. Is this possible? And what I can get to the Middle East (Egypt).

  Unfortunately the video card cannot be improved. Only you can do is upgrade RAM, optimize the preinstalled operating system and play games that need power of video not so much.

  Also try to play games with video settings below. Sorry, but that's all I can say about it.

• Satellite A100-411: one or the other DVDs cannot be recognized

  Hello

  I work with my new Toshiba a100 411 since the end of February here at I m happy w / my choice.
  The only point is that I found that one or the other DVD cannot be recognized by the Pioneer K17A.
  Need me possibly new drivers?
  Thks in advance for yr help.
  Jürgen

  Hello

  Hmm I n t think so.
  As far as I know that these drives support not all CD or DVD and it s nothing unusual that one or the other DVD may not be recognized correctly.

  Sometimes a firmware update could allow the reader to recognize more kind of CD and DVD, but on the other hand, no one can say that this update might help.

• Satellite A100 PSAA9A - can read DVD BUT not CD with Windows XP

  I use a satellite A100 PSAA9A computer laptop and I started having trouble with the CD/DVD drive. It was working fine until yesterday when he decided not read no matter what CD I get the message asking me to insert a disc, when there is a CD in the drive. It still reads DVD good.
  I don't know if he has anything to do with the download of the updates of Windows XP because the troubl seems to start after I did.
  Is there somewhere in the creation for the player who controls this? Also when I run the troubleshooting test it always ignores the test of this drive.
  I'd appreciate any help.
  See you soon

  Optical drives, DVDS, has some different faces to work with CD and DVD, but objective and optics are the same. He had arrived, when in one two heads become a dust or something else. I thing that you must visit the Service and your disk cleanup. But do not use a cleaning disc!
  PS. Windows updates, as and OS, are not issues.
  Make sure it's easy - attempt to start bootCD (not BootDVD) with anyone by pressing F12 at startup. If the running machine - it's Windows, if not - DVD player.
  See you soon

• Can satellite A100-097 - I replace the cd - dvd drive

  Hello

  The cd-burner in my Satellite A100-097 drive begins to age, burns can sometimes fail, sometimes cannot even read simple audio cds.

  Can someone tell me if I can replace it with a new and where to find it, finally?

  Thank you
  Andrea

  Hello

  Yes, you can replace the CD/DVD drive with a new one.
  But be aware that not all of the sides are compatible due to different master/slave/c-salt settings

  Manual of use you should find some details about compatible readers and supported
  Check it out
  If you have no user manual then go to the Toshiba European page to download.

  In addition, you can buy a player of an ASP supported in your country
  The guys would be able to order it at Toshiba if necessary.
