Satellite A20 - 103 - DVD - RW new SD-R6572M player does not work

Hi, I have a laptop Toshiba SA20-S103. I decided to change my combo drive DVD - RW drive, so I bought the Toshiba DVD - RW SD-R6572M drive with LightScribe technology. Unfortunately, it doesn't work! When I put my new DVD - RW drive in the laptop it doesn't start t! It also doesn t start if there is no drive inside the laptop (no HARD disk activity)! I put my old combo drive and the laptop works properly.
What should I do to make them work together? The BIOS updates are required?
I think it's strange, but my BIOS is really simple, that I can't change anything. I'm only able to choose laptop startup disk (press F12).

Hello

Well, it seems that you have purchased a DVD player is not compatible. Not all readers are supported on this notebook because of the assignment of pins.
In this case that I n t think that the BIOS update will solve this problem. But you can try it.
You should always check compatibility before you buy laptop computer parts.

Good bye

  • Satellite L300D-11V - DVD player does not work

    Hello

    I am a Satellite L300D-11V and the driver on the CD does not work. I think is not the right driver and an update of Windows could have messed up.
    Anyone know where I can download the correct driver for the DVD player for Vista? Or solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Mounira.

    Hello!

    I put t understand why you need a CD/DVD driver or tell you the driver does not work.

    The CD/DVD driver for the reader is part of Windows. You don't need one and should not install a new or something else. When you have problems with the drive, it s not the driver, it s another issue.

    Now have yellow marks in the Device Manager and can use the drive? On the right, a right click on the drive and select uninstall. Restart your laptop, and the driver should be installed automatically.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P25-S520 - DVD player does not work properly

    Difficulty of DVD player or buy the external drive

    My DVD player does not work properly, in fact it can never work properly. Recently, I tried to back up my PC on a DVD using Norton 360. Norton did not recognize that the DVD was present. Then I tried to write a text file on a DVD and was a failure. DVD + R and DVD-R media were found to be (Maxwell 16 X).

    I could have probably lived with this however, I received a copy of Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10 on a CD and my Toshiba would not recognize it. I tried the CD in my laptop nearby and it was recognized.

    An attempt to update the driver has also fails.

    I was able to copy a CD of music last night so that at least works properly.

    Does anyone know how can I fix? The important part is to be able to load my new program.

    Research on some forums I found that other people have had problems with the Pioneer drive. If the drive can't be fixed, I'm not adverse to buying an external DVD drive. Unfortunately, where I live there is no brick and mortar stores selling external drives and I prefer to avoid the hassle of getting a drive online and discovering that it does not work with my Toshiba. Can someone suggest an external USB drive that will read and write CD and DVD and is certain to be compatible with my Toshiba?

    Thanks for any help,

    Any external USB CD/DVD drive will be compatible with your laptop.

    However, you won't be able to boot from CD (run recovery for example) If you are using an external drive.

    So, your best option would be to replace the internal drive with a Toshiba drive designed for the laptop. Call an ASP and request a quote.

  • On the Satellite L650-12Z DVD player does not work

    (this is posted on the US forums who sent me here)

    Hello.

    I have a bit of a problem with my portable DVD player. If I put a DVD in there, he turns and runs for 2 minutes, but he made nothing read (read: I do not hear the lens engine).

    Now, in this age of digital distribution, it is less a problem then it used to be, but it is still a bit boring.
    It is also not a question relating to the OS because when I try to boot from a DVD of Windows 7 it also does not work.

    It is out of warranty, so I can't send it to cost me money.

    Thanks in advance.

    It looks like a hardware problem of the optic disc.
    In some cases it is only a matter of laser lenses, could you fix this by cleaning up that part.

    I cleaned the lens laser alcohol or cotton tip.
    Some people recommended this and in my case it helped also.

    Of course, this could be a solution only in case your laser lens is dirty.

    Help, please

    Thank you

    Hello

    There are two possible reasons why you are not able to copy anything to the CD or DVD.

    First, it may be possible that the drives used are not entirely compatible.
    In such cases, it s always advisable to test different CD and DVD from different manufacturers.

    Secondly, the issue could be related to a defective laser lens; in many cases, this can happen because of a physical constraint. If the laser lens can not calibrate in a good position, then the player will not be able to handle the inserted discs.
    This could be the worst case, because this issue is not repairable. Just a STRANGE replacement could help.

  • Windows media player does not work as no driver DVD

    Had to format drive (trojan) & reinstall Windows XP home. Now Windows media player does not work as no DVD driver download from Toshiba site?

    Hello

    Usually the Windows media Player is not able to read DVD movies IF no plugins were installed.
    To watch DVDs, you can use programs such as WinDVD or PowerDVD.
    These programs are designed for the DVD play!

    But you can also visit the Microsoft Web site and search plug-ins for Windows Media player.
    Then you can download and install to play a DVD with WMP

  • Satellite P105 carpet * a dvd player does not work with Win 7

    Greetings,

    I need an upgrade on my dvd to my vintage Satellite P105.
    I want the possible fastest dvd burner right now because I'm a fan of film and keep them in digital memory.

    (1) first should I get an external drive or can I get the best performance with an internal dvd replacement of a reseller of parts or Toshiba?

    The problem is when I've upgraded to windows 7 things have changed. I lost my sound, but that solved using a driver inherited Visa as apparently the sound 'Council' on the laptop is for Vista only. Then I found the dvd player which is a mitsu * an internal UJ-450 does not or is extremely slow in saving films, records or files. The available recording software seems also planned for Vista performance was acceptable. Even the dvd burning software does not work.

    (2) so my question for multimedia specialists is: what should be my next move?

    (3) should I go outside and confront the neck of the bottle USB or

    (4) to make the speed of the bus on the internal dvd?

    (5) given an internal dvd is preferable, because it's exactly a dvd-ram/IDE as it is currently, or some other configuration of bus.

    (6) most importantly, what dvd burner would give me 18 x speed with current programs like ConvertXtoDVD and did as a symbol external or - better - as an internal dvd replacement or my slow drive currently?

    Of course, if you could give me a model number and direct me to the sales it would be much appreciated.

    Thank you in advance.

    > 1) first of all I should go for an external drive or can I get optimal performance with a dvd replacement internal to a coin dealer or Toshiba?

    You should know that not all internal STRANGE machines are compatible. You will need to use a not compatible and supported and such device could be ordered in a local ASP.
    But it s more expensive as an external CD/DVD device so you could also choose an external that would be compatible with all computers and laptops available.

    (> 2) so, my question for multimedia specialists is: what should be my next move?
    As mentioned. Good option would be to buy an external burner drive ODD

    (> 3) should I go outside and confront the neck of the bottle USB or
    External device are compatible with all computers and are less expensive

    (> 4) go to the speed of the bus on the internal dvd?
    If you have the money for an internal device and want to use it with P105 only then you can also choose an internal burner.

    (> 5) because a dvd internal is preferable, because it is exactly a dvd-ram/IDE as it is currently, or some other configuration of bus.
    As far as I know it s an IDE interface, but the device would support setting master or slave or c - salt. As mentioned, you can buy a Toshiba a recommended.

    (> 6) especially, what dvd burner would give me 18 x speed with current programs like ConvertXtoDVD and did as a symbol external or - better - as an internal dvd replacement or my slow drive currently?

    So I deleted the a±ts driver and then I do not want to install the driver.
    Please help about this.

    Hello

    Don't be angry with me, but your ad is not a little clearer!

    However, the CD/DVD drive uses and supports the common drivers Windows Vista (or XP)!
    You n t need any special drivers to recognize the STRANGE

    In your case I would recommend going to the Device Manager and remove (uninstall) the CD/DVD drive.
    After this procedure, restart the laptop.
    The Vista operating system should recognize the new device and must be reinstalled the drivers automatically
