Satellite A500 DVD/CD Driver does not (can't read the discs)

• Satellite A60 DVD - RW drive does not

  Hi guys,.
  The DVD - RW drive does not read anything I put in it.
  He works certainly (in some form) because it runs on start and when I put a disc inside, but he can't always SEE.

  I tried to uninstall/reinstall the drive itself, uninstalling/reinstalling the driver. I searched on the net for drivers (thinking that the driver file was corrupted), but I couldn't find a driver for the DVD-RAM.

  I was restarted after each task but still no luck.

  Help, please

  Thank you
  Dave

  Looks like a dead drive. I think it should replace the disk.
  Try to contact the ASP in your country, and it will get you more details.

• Satellite A660 DVD/CD drive does not detect disks

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A660 with a CARPET * A BD - CMB UJ141ES DVD/CD-ROM. It is around the age of 18 months and recently I noticed that it does not recognize the CD/DVD. He made a few noises once inserted but then stops spinning and nothing happens or changes in my computer.

  Please note that there seems to be no apparent problem with the reader:
  -It is present in my computer
  -The device works correctly in Device Manager

  I already tried things:
  -Run Microsoft FixIt and troubleshooting of CD-ROM/DVD - both said that he could not recognize media
  -Remove the upper filter in the registry according to the many suggestions (this lower filters)
  -Update driver

  I don't know what else to do. Please help because it's frustrating for a relatively new laptop which is never left my office (don't expect much damaged parts).

  See you soon

• Satellite A500-138 - lighting buttons does not work even in the BIOS

  Hello.

  I'm just curious to know if anyone else has a problem with the (play/pause excatly) multimedia keyboard backlight? Mine died today, and there is nothing I can do to make it work again.

  The key still works, but when I turn on the backlight, backlight on everyone, but the play/pause (the backlight of the other keys work, touchpad and Satellite logo too).

  I use Windows 7, but the problem persists even in the BIOS.

  I think the backlight of the button is just dead.

  I have to admit I'm really disappointed with this laptop. Config is great, design and are also involved, but I can just take the couine noise that makes C2D (RMClock, one utility, I know that to solve this problem, does not recognize the A500 motherboard) and the fan almost never works to 70%, and now that the backlight...

  If the backlight of the multimedia key stops working after 3 weeks of use, which will be in the future? It's too scary to think ;)

  I was really excited by Toshiba, but day after day I come to the conclusion, that it is the first and the last laptop that I bought at Toshiba - never had similar problems on other laptops, same nonames.

  Of course, I know that I can has sent for fix, I guarantee (and wait about a month to get a backlight fixed stupid). But why hell not the backlight stoped working, if LEDs vitality is long as hell? It can mean two things: I really don't have a chance, or Toshiba did not pay too much attention to detail during production A500s. And after 3 weeks of use, I fear that the second option is much more likely...

  Then, someone has a feeling similar to this topic? And someone has a problem with backlight?

  Hello

  He damage of s to hear that your light has stopped working, but I think that it s just a software problem.
  I have a Satellite A500 equipped with buttons of enlightenment and everything works great with Vista and XP I m very satisfied.
  Unfortunately until that yet I didn't test with Win 7.

  I doubt you want to send this laptop for ASP, as I said, there seems to be a software problem and you can find it easily
  You must set the notebook to factory settings I mean that you must use the recovery disc in order to get the same State as on the first day of purchase

  Moreover, I visited the European driver of Toshiba page and, unfortunately, I didn't see no Win 7 drivers for this series at this time
  I guess that Windows 7 drivers will be released in the near future.
  So I wonder how you came to the button illumination because this feature requires the Toshiba driver and tools as well as the drivers aren't there?  :|

• CD/DVD-Rom drive does not not on Equium A100

  I installed a webcam, and it made my DVD - rom drive does not not with all drives. I uninstalled everything to do with the webcam and it still does not work. Can someone help me solve this problem without using the recovery disk of the product came with my laptop?

  I had this problem before, but I didn't the first time, it's the webcam that has caused the problem. It s webcam trust wb - 1400T. I had to use the product recovery disc and he had a lot of hassle to install all my programs again and this time I'm in the middle of exams and can't get it all done in time for my exams, as I have vital work on here I have to do.

  .. .Please help me... I think it is the driver, but I don't know how to fix it.

  Hi mate

  > I installed a webcam, and it made my DVD - rom drive does not not with all drives
  To be honest I have never seen that the webcam may have a negative influence on the internal CD/DVD drive.
  I see really no connection between the webcam and ODD... very strange
  Do you get any error messages?

  Anyway, in my opinion, you should try these solution ideas;

  (1) remove the drive from the Device Manager CD/DVD and restart the laptop. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the STRANGE and should re-install the drivers.

  2) access the registry and delete 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 laptop.

  (3) download and install the tool freeware "CCleaner". This tool repairs registry and solves several problems in System.

  If this does not work, then the new installation of the OS would be wise to check if the problem could be related to a software problem.

• Help! DVD/CD drive does not!

  Help! I used the Microsoft Fix It, I went through community forums and followed the links here and there, I even followed of it: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/929461 that requires you to modify your registry! YET, without success!

  Yesterday, the Windows Vista update ran, everything was hunky dory and a-okay (or so I thought). After that I turned off the computer, ran some errands, the CD-ROM/DVD-rom drive does not work! When I try to run a program installed which requires a disc (like a video game) I get the message "unable to locate the CD-ROM: Please insert the right CD-ROM, select OK and restart the program" even if the disk is in the computer. When I try to insert media, AutoPlay will not... Well... running! I went to the COMPUTER file and found 2 things; underneith the tip where it know "Devices with removable storage" I found a D:\ RW Drive who said that the device was not found, and to the right a menu similer who told me to "Insert a disc" when I clicked on D:\ RW.

  I looked in the DEVICE MANAGER to take a peek at my drivers and find my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM driver and he told me that the unit was working properly - HOWEVER, when I run Microsoft Fix It he told me something different. He told me my filters of class are corrupt, filter of device drivers are corrupt, device is not working properly, drive is disabled, drive is not assigned a drive letter. Now it's all hunky dory but I don't speak computer, and I would like to DISABLE ONE and non-CORRUPT everything!

  I have already done a system restore and follow the link that requires you to enter in your registry and remove the filters. It's a gateway computer, I already spoke with gateway and they told me to do a factory restore (which I have not yet done because I would like to know if there is a way to fix this problem without uninstalling EVERYTHING on my computer).

  I really hope that this is not a lost cause. Help me to Microsoft, you're my only hope.

• My DVD/CD drive does not work in Windows 8 Professional, and it ISN'T a hardware problem.

  My DVD/CD drive does not work in Windows 8 Professional with or without data or audio in it. However, if I turn off the PC with a bootable CD/DVD in there, the PC recognize the media and initiate the CD when turned on. This confirms that the DVD/CD drive actually works, but for some stupid reason, Microsoft Windows 8 Professional will not recognize the same DVD/CD player it loaded since! Thanks again Microsoft for another product of shit. Now, how are you going to fix this? And how are we supposed to run things such as WordPad or paint, etc. I predict that Windows 8 will fall faster than Windows Me!

  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

  My CD/DVD drive does not seem to start DVD, it runs and runs and the only way I can run a DVD (i.e. film) is using Windows Media Center, while the software to install must be enabled in Windows Explorer.

  Anyone?

• Satellite A500-17 x - wifi does not work - not found in Device Manager

  Hi people,

  I need help please.

  My wireless adapter does not work.
  It worked perfectly until I connected to a wired connection in a hotel I was staying in and since then I can not connect to my wireless router.

  I tried restoring the tosystem several times to old dates, but it has not solved the problem. When I restart the computer laptop and go into devices and printers, I thought that the computer needs to be troubleshooted.

  The program runs and try to install the driver for the Wlan but returns with errors. Namely, windows could not load the driver or can verify the digital signature.

  There is also no icon in the network for lan wlan connections only. When I use the radar in connectivity doctor tells me that the WiFi network is disabled but I can't understand how to activate it.

  When I start in safe mode and go to Device Manager I see the wireless network adapter, but when I try to install the driver I leave safe mode and restart. I did and then the WiFi network is displayed in the Device Manager but when I try to load the driver, I thought that the driver is updated and then the adapter disappears from the Device Manager.

  I'm so frustrated at this point and I'm very close to a full erase and start over.

  I also tried to reload and load the default configuration settings in the installation program, but didn't make any difference.

  My laptop is a Satellite A500-17 x with windows 7 64 bit.
  The WiFi network is Realtek RTL8192E Wireless Lan 802.11 PCI - ENIC

  Hello

  Go to BIOS (press F2) and set it to default settings.
  Save the changes and restart the device.
  Then try to reinstall the WLan driver again.

  If that does not help, download the most recent and updated BIOS to BIOS first day.
  Then, restart the device and try reinstalling the Wlan driver.

  Last but not least you could test the WLan feature on laptop running with factory settings current (after using the Toshiba Recovery)

  PS: in order to use the WiFi network you must use the FN + F8 key combination and must turn on the WLan (in front of the laptop) switch to position.
