Satellite A205 - screwdriver-DVD Player problems

I have a Toshiba Satellite A205
My operating system is: Windows Vista: Home Premium, 32-bit operating system

I have a RUG * A DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA DEVICE

I haven't installed any strange software or had any new hardware installed, but the DVD player decided one day that it wasn't going to work. The CD still works fine, but the DVD player gave me at the beginning of messages as:

"An error has occurred in the audio output settings. Please check audio driver is set up correctly. "So I tried, update, then just uninstalled and reinstalled the audio driver. No luck.

I tried all sorts of things from other forums, and after a few weeks of this issue, I am at a total loss. I can not even find the real driver for this DVD player, it may be available, but there are so many forums on problems with this unit, I can't sort what is relevant to me and what is not. I tried the update, removal and relocation of the family of chipsets, I tried to completely clean all the drivers and re - install... and now as I said I can't even return original driver.

How do I fix this?

I don't know which DVD player, you used but, in my opinion, now the situation is quite complicated. Who knows what you have installed successfully, and what happens now.

I recommend you to follow:
Back up all your important data
Install the OS by using the recovery image (its windows should work fine)
Check in Device Manager if all the hardware components are installed correctly
Some audio CD and a function test
Check the functionality of DVD player (I recommend you to use VLC media player)

If the problem persists let us know.

  • Satellite U205 - DVD Player problems

    I bought a Satellite U205-S5057 year last with Vista on it. For the first month, all video files burn very well. After that, I downloaded all kinds of codecs and trial versions of DVD burning software just got keep burning DVDs.

    After all downloads, of course, they began to come into conflict. I ran a system recovery and hoped that it would be clean all conflicts. I put some videos on a CD - rw and transferred to my book burning. When I clicked on the D: / he said "D: / no request." Then I re-installed Realplayer on the internet and now it burns in Realplayer 1 out of every 10 tent or if.

    Anyone know why I have so many problems with my CD/DVD drive? In addition, he always says D: / is a DVD player, even when I put a CD. Is this good?

  • Satellite A60 DVD Player problems

    Hello
    I have a Satellite A60 (18mths old now) - when I 1st got it the DVD burner was DOA - so I sent off the coast and he had replaced.
    It has worked well since then until recently when the DVD player just wouldn't recognize anything - CD or DVD

    Tried everything with this unit - but at the end of the day understood the drive was gone.

    Another bought a (SD-R6252) and lo-and-this is the same thing happens.

    Each diagnosis that I run says the drive is OK - but there is no disk in it.
    I reinstalled windows from the recovery factory - discs
    Update the BIOS
    Tried to update the firmware of the drive-, but the update said that this was not necessary.

    Tried with Nero, Windows, InterVideo - nothing.

    As it is now a working machine that I can't afford 3 months back in time to send it off and watched it (that's how long it took the last time) and my nearest dealer of Toshiba is in place at the other end of the country.

    Suggestions for things that I can try out would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    The new drive can read CDs but can not burn anything. Am I wrong?
    Or the drive cannot recognize the media that in the Windows operating system?
    You said that you have reinstalled the widows. In this case, you used the drive.

    Try to remove the drive from Device Manager. Restart the unit. Now check if you can use CDs and DVDs

  • Satellite A500 - video/dvd player is not compatible with Windows 10

    After having recently updated of my laptop for windows 10 I discovered that the dvd player does not work. A message is displayed informing that the player is not compatible with this version of windows. A scan using Norton suggests dvd will not work because it needs to be configured.

    Does anyone else have this problem?

    Obviously, Toshiba DVD playback application that is preinstalled on this Satellite A500 model is not compatible with the system Windows 10.

    In this case this software will not properly work after the upgrade to win 10 and I guess you have to remove the system Win 10.

    Unfortunately, the Satellite A500 is not listed as Win 10 portable computers and so I don't think you will get an update to this software for DVD playback.

    Here is a list of models supported for upgrading to Windows 10

  • Satellite Pro U300 - DVD Player error

    Hello
    I had not used my DVD player for a long time, and when I tried to use it again the other day that he has stopped working. Where to insert the DVD and the DVD player provided Toshiba starts a message pops up saying
    "Impossible for the release of the video on an external device. "Please change your display keys of the device by pressing the Fn + F5 after the end of the application.

    I did what he said and further and have made sure the computer does not recognize somehow, another device connected to my laptop. All that shows is the LCD screen of the laptop and nothing more. No clue as to how can I fix? I don't have an external display at the moment as im at Uni. so I can't plug a hook to the top and see if it works like that and then properly close. Any other suggestions? Would be great,

    Thank you

  • 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,

    Satellite P25-S520
    PIONEER DVD - RW DVR-K12D
    Driver provider: Microsoft
    Driver date: 01/07/2001
    Driver version: 5.1.2535.0
    Digital signer: Microsoft Windows Publisher

    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.

  • Satellite A100-447 - DVD player does not read some discs

    Hello

    I have a 4 month old Satellite 100-447 (PSAAN), came preloaded with Vista Home Premium and a carpet * CD/DVD super-multi UJ-850 s player.

    The DVD player does not work properly. It will recognize a few blank, but never DVD-R DVD and won't recognise any DVD at all serious. He is very good with CD and DVD movie discs. It's just recordable DVD where there is a problem.

    Also when you try to write to a DVD, when he chooses to recognize a TI-error in half way through.

    What can I do?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    You can do the follwowing:

    Go to this website http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp,

    Download the latest update of the firmware for this drive, install it, and then try again.

    Sometimes, the manufacturer must update their readers for the newer recordable media and so I think that it is possible that your drive is simply not up to date.

    I searched this forum for similar issues and I think I have a solution.
    It seems that the Realtek audio driver causes this problem.

    According to this Toshiba document a new soud driver installation will help you solve this problem of HD - DVD.
