Satellite A350-CD/DVD drive does not appear

My CD drive does not appear in my computer and no longer works

Help, please!

Thank you

Hi denis,.

It appears perhaps with yellow exclamation point in Device Manager? With the code 19 error? I ask this question because I founded this interesting article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314060

In addition, it would be interesting to know if the drive is seen in BIOS or not because in the worst case, need to replace the disk.

  • Satellite A100: CD/DVD drive does not appear in the Manager of peripherals and BIOS

    The CD/DVD drive does not appear in the window manager and I can't incert CD
    The BIOS displays "none" instead of "optical device".

    This means that the CD device is dead?

    Hey Micky,

    Unfortunately it's probably :-(. You can try to remove the optical drive and then reinsert it into Notepad, and then marketing and see if it is recognized as a new device.

    Check also that it is not displayed in Device Manager and if it is remove before trying the above.

    Kind regards

  • My DVD drive does not appear in Windows Explorer

    This morning my computer ran a scan virus and other things, and when this was done, my computer will not respond to any type of CD.  No DVD, CD or even disks with files stored on them.
    When I open windows Explorer, the drive from DVD (e) is not even more appear.  I was wondering how to fix this.

    Hello

    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    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 loose 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.

    Hope these helps.

  • Satellite L755 - CD/DVD drive does not

    I own Satellite L755 and the dvd rom does not work (do not read disks and show on the disks in the computer).

    When I go into the Device Manager in windows it displays error code: 39 which means that the driver is defective.

    It is not the first time its happening.
    It happens after a few months and I need to back up and do the system recovery each time.

    Is there a way to fix this without making the system recovery each time?

    Hello

    Try this workaround:

    Go to Device Manager and remove the CD/DVD drive entry (mark and press DELETE)

    Then start the registry and remove the filters above and below the following key:

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

  • DVD drive does not appear on the screen of the reader 'computer '.

    I lost access to the DVD drive. It does not appear on the screen of the reader 'computer '.
    It starts with a disc inserted, but stops after about 20 seconds without opening all files.
    The DVD comes on when it starts first and then turns off after a few seconds.
    I have re-installed the driver of Toshiba and still no access.

    I think it all started when I installed a new WD 1 TB external hard drive which its virtual CD drive on the E: drive, which was used by the installation DVD player. I moved the external hard drive G: and drive E: letter has left vacant, but still does not work.

    Any ideas how I can fix this problem? It would be greatly appreciated.

  • Satellite 2430: CD/DVD drive does not work - i/o error

    Hello all Toshiba people.i have recently bought a Toshiba Satellite 2430 for a very good price. One thing the carpet * a DVD - ram Uj - 810 drive does not work when I put in any type of cd or dvd, I get this error
    F:\ is not accessible.
    The request could not be performed because of an i/o error.

    I talked to my local computer Wizz and does everything that he suggested to the letter and still the same problem. He suggested updating the bios drivers and the only way to do that is on a disk drive that she cannot take the an or a CD or dvd drive is not working. Can you please help me!

    Begging you a lot
    Michael Borger

    In my view BIOS update will not change.
    I assume that the reader has worked in the past with the same BIOS version
    It is a drive hardware problem or some registry keys are corrupt.

    I think that it s a hardware malfunction may be a matter of lenses.
    But try this;
    Remove the drive from Device Manager and shut the laptop computer. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the drive again. Then you can check the functionality.

    Otherwise, you can remove the disk from the laptop, and then start the laptop without the drive. Then stop the laptop, put the drive in the notebook and start over.
    The firmware should again loads.

    But if these procedures help t, I don t see it differently as for replace the drive

  • CD/DVD drive does not appear in Windows 8

    My CD/DVD drive no longer appears in Windows Explorer in point 8.1 of Windows on my desktop HP Pavilion Slimline 400-034. The disc rotates during startup. I tried the troubleshooting of Microsoft Window 8 with no luck. I would try the HP troubleshooting which requires access BIOS when booting, but by pressing F10 at startup me does not BIOS but Windows load normally. Any suggestions to at least help me get the BIOS?

    Solved! No. thanks to HP. Even if I had never opened the file on my PC and make sure that the cable DVD could not be disconnected, I decided to look for. Much to my surprise, he has been disconnected - but not by me - by a HP technician. I remembered that I had to return the PC to HP to replace the power supply warranty in June 2014. Not only have they not reconnect the cable SATA DVD, they put the cable from the hard drive in the MB connector where the DVD cable was supposed to be. After trial and error and insert the DVD cable in the 3 open SATA connectors with no luck, and finally move the cable from the hard drive to another connector and put the cable DVD where the cable from the hard drive was, the DVD has been recognized by Windows and working correctly. Thanks to HP for the many hours I lost to try to correct their mistake.

  • Aspire 5740g and the dvd drive does not appear in 'my computer '.

    I had to have a new installed hard drive I got an error message saying old default disk.

    I also had a clean install of windows 7 that I was uncertain if my discs that I created would be ok.

    So I have not all the gifts that have been installed on the laptop like new. Now, I find that the dvd drive is not displayed in my computer and nothing happens when I insert the disc.

    This has happened a couple of days and I did a restore of the system to a previous restore point.  Does anyone know how to solve this problem.

    I also do not have the secure egis - any ideas how to get this back

    Then... your DVD is probably defective.

    did you check in the BIOS if it is listed on bootable devices?

    Press F2 at startup, if it is not listed, it is defective.

  • Satellite C660 - 11K DVD drive does not

    I was just become acquainted with my new laptop Satellite C660 - 11K that I bought for Christmas and came to try playing a DVD for the first time tonight.

    The first one I tried was a business produced in format DVD RW DVD. When I inserted in the DVD player, I got a "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem during playback of the file" error message. Following the troubleshooting guide to check my sound, video settings and game controllers do not solve the problem.

    I then tried a purchased movie DVD (DVD-video format) and received the same error message.

    Finally, I have inserted an audio CD purchased and tried to play it through Windows Media Player and iTunes, but could not play all titles. The Gracenote software did, however, identify the CD and track names.

    By Device Manager, I found that my DVD drive is a TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633C and that it is enabled, the value of region 2 DVD and it has drivers up to date.

    Am I missing something stupid that prevents me to get my DVD player to work, or do I have a defective DVD player?

    Any help or ideas greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hi mate

    Perhaps you need a firmware update for the CD/DVD drive.
    I found this Toshiba document:

    + ODD Firmware Update to fix problems with audio sound distortion on playback of the CD in Windows 7 +.

  • Satellite L350 - CD/DVD drive does not open

    I have a new laptop, less than a month, but his habit of CD/DVD tray open by pressing eject button. Eject-do a right-click on its icon does not open it no more.

    There is no disc inside, it is visible in the BIOS, no sign of a driver problem in Device Manager. I tried reinstalling the driver, but that didn't help.

    Any solution for this problem would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi inecro,

    If the CD/DVD drive doesn t open more I think that you can do anything in this case.

    I can only confirm what writes Akuma. You need to replace the CD/DVD drive and you get a new from an authorized service provider. If your laptop is under warranty you can get a new one for free.

    I had the same problem a few months ago. EPA has replaced the CD/DVD drive in a few days and I come back my laptop. Very fast service and the technicians are friendly. :)

  • Satellite L40 - CD/DVD drive does not end to close after burning

    Hello

    My TOSHIBA SATELLITE L40 works correctly under VISTA HOME PREMIUM. This is the first time that I realize that the CD/DVD driver is unable to complete a session of engraving using NERO8, NERO9, ASHAMPO TSHIBA DISC CREATOR or in Windows mode. The burn starts fine from 0% to 100% where it remains for a long time. Where can be the problem come from? Is the driver broken only for burning?

    It correctly reads all CDs and DVDs once loaded.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I think that this problem can be caused by using fully compatible diskettes
    I had many problems with different CD or DVD from different manufacturers.
    I tested several brands and finally I had a good experience with TDK discs Verbatim R my disk manages this disc better than others

    Perhaps, you should also test different drives from different manufacturers.

    Hello

    Don t use Roxio program to burn the CD.
    Use Nero! It of much better! I also use it and I m very happy.

    I noticed that Roxio modifies the registry key, and so sometimes the CD/DVD drive cannot read or burn some mediums.

    Delete the Upperfilter and UpperFilter in this key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  • My CD/DVD drive does not appear as a drive on your computer with other readers. All points of restoration before March 1 are gone. How can I fix it?

    I have windows vista Home premium OS on a Dell Inspiron 530.  Some time previously, autorun would not work, but I could open the program manually.  Who has also disappeared.  The drivers are later and Device Manager shows the drive works properly.

    I also have a problem importing pictures from my camera even though I reinstalled the whole program.  When I try to download, I get a screen showing the camera as a storage device.  No way to get around.

    All points before March 1 of restoration, have disappeared.

    I've used RegZooka.  If I have damaged registry, how can I restore it?  If I open REGEDIT it opens directly onto the CD/DVD key.
