4. are there specific drivers for DVD player. ?

Experts or those who have recovered from the same problem. Please help me.

Thanks in advance.

Hello

Maybe your CD/DVD drive becomes faulty... What do you think?

But before you think to a new disk, you must remove the server - and lowerfilters in the registry. You can follow the workaround from Microsoft:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314060

Also, make sure that the CD/DVD drive lens is clean. You can use a microfibre cloth to clean. This rag doesn't scratch the lens.
Check this box!

Finally and above all, there is no special driver for CD/DVD drive. It s a part of t Windows and can be updated.

  • Satellite L670-112 - SSD slow read and write speed

    Hello.
    I put 120 GB SATA III SSD kingston (read and write above 500 MB/S), but when I run the sequential test I get 150 MB/S read and 107 MB/S in writing. I know SATA II limitation, so should not write and read nearly 300 MB/S?

    Yes, it should at least reach SATA II speeds (close to 270 MB/s).

    Most SSD's 4K sector drives you may need to realign the 512 to 4K sectors using a partition alignment tool (I think that WD have one available).

  • Read and write the empty file - InputStream

    Hi all

    I have a problem with the playback of a file.

    Thanks for your help...

    Welcome to the forum.

    Can't see anything obviously wrong.

    I suggest for now you change to use the SD card instead of the store and run in the Simulator with the SD card simulated as a directory.  You can browse the Windows directory and if, in fact, the file is created as expected.

    I wonder if it is possible to have some information about reading and write the totals of the IOPS / s and latency? The only one i have now in Explorer 'storage '. "VM performance top 10" is average information and tip of the Ops / s and latencies. I need information of reading and writing of the virtual machines instead of the totals.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Read and write data to the content repository.

    Hi all
    We use the content repository to store a document and images on the web server in the Center.
    So we have created/setup a repository of content on the web center.
    Please proivde me some might document page to get an idea of how I can read and write the date
    content repository.
    You are most welocme to provide some idea /suggestion.
    Thank you
    Arun.

    You are using webcenter spaces or you create a custom application webcenter?

    When you create a custom application webcenter, you can make use of the workflow Documents. Jdeveloper resources catalog, you will find a few flows of Documents job that will allow you to add some components to manage documents in a folder structure.
    You must first create a connection to your content from your application server. This can be done in the Application resources, right-click on the connection and in the context menu, select "content repository". Them you must filll in connection to your content server details. Make sure you have selected "Set as primary connection for document service" because otherwise the document taskflows you deposit on your page will not find a connection.

    Once you have added the connection, you will also find a datacontrol to the content repository. In this way, you can use the datacontrol place the taskflow and you can create several custom tables.
    I'm not sure but I think the datacontrol also include surgery to create the document but I'm not sure...

    And if not enough, you can always do use the webservices provided by content server. In Jdeveloper you can easily create a datacontrol from Web services by providing the wsdl file. UCM provides for services so that you can import the wsdl into your application and you can easily create your own forms checkin, tables...

    Here is some information on how to integrate services document:

  • Satellite M30X-165: Mat * a UJ - 831 S is not read and write any DVD

    Hello

    the next problem is sticky on the laptop Satellite M30X 165 with the burner Mat * a UJ - 831 S: it can read and write CDs, but is not able to write them to DVD or even read some of the ones I've burned and also read in the same drive. Even at the start of the DVD, it does not start from the recovery DVD, the player starts and slows down very quickly.
    Without doubt, it must be put at the service of repair or someone has other suggestions?

    Could you please tell me how long the repair takes (I know what it takes to install the desktop temporarily used).

    Thank you

    Hello

    If you cannot use recovery media, I guess that the drive is defective and must be replaced.

    As wrote Al - Ex what program you use to burn discs? I have good experience with Nero and CD Burner XP. Can you test with one of them, please?

    Hello

    First of all, you should check if are some registry issues.
    Go to the register a remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Then restart the device and check if you could read the CD.

    I had a lot of problems with different discs (CDs and DVDs) as well
    I could solve the problem. the problem is that my CD/DVD drive is not compatible with some CD and DVD from different manufacturers

    Finally, I bought some TDK CD - R and my CD/DVD player has been able to manage these disks
    I think you should check the different discs from different manufacturers too!

    Last but not least check if there is an update of the firmware of CD/DVD for you, CD/DVD player.
    To do this, you should visit checking page European driver Toshiba details more details.
    You will find the info if the firmware has been published for you CD/DVD drive.

    Hello

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
    correctly.

    A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    CD have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
    tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

    ===========================================

    This troubleshooting could not help if there is alignment and/or wear issues however it
    a shot.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive

    the parameters.

  • How to install Windows XP on Satellite A300-146?

    Hi all

    I need to know how can I install Windows XP on to my Toshiba Satellite A300-146 since I have windows vista with Arabic and this very bad.
    I heard in the laptop we have a SATA hard drive and the problems of British Colombia, who has not read the material.

    Also, I want to know how I can change vista from Arabic to English interface?

    How can configure LAN?

    Just a question;
    Did you go through this forum and simple threads on this topic before you posted this new topic?

    There is a lot of discussion on the installation of Win XP on laptops with SATA controller!
    The procedure is always the same on most portable models!

    You have 2 options; fade you assign compatible in the BIOS SATA mode and would not need to install the SATA drivers or you let the SATA AHCI mode and would include the SATA drivers using an external floppy drive you would have built a new disk Win XP using nLite software.

    PS: SATA drivers are part of the Intel Storage Manager!
