• Satellite 1900 (PS192E) - does not recognize the CD/DVD

  Hey all,.

  I just bought a Toshiba Satellite 1900 (PS192E) and place an old 20 GB HDD from an old laptop.

  When I boot, the screen is in VGA 16 color mode, it recognizes the DVD player, but does not recognize the CD/DVD when inserted. I tried to install and run the utility "driver robot" Toshibas, but the display is such that I see all of the screen to start the search.

  If there is someone out there who could give me some advice, I would be extremely grateful.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  OK, you have installed the disk HARD of another laptop but too format the HARD drive? I mean if the HARD drive performed from another laptop, you need to reinstall Windows because now you have other hardware installed.
  What version of Windows is it?

  If you want to install a driver for the graphics card go into Device Manager and select Update driver.

  If it doesn't help then I put t see any other possibilities for contact ASP in your country for a CD/DVD drive control and possibly a replacement

  Hello mike salinas.

  1. you have any third-party burning software installed on your computer?

  2. have you checked if the external CD drive works on another computer?

  I suggest that you check if your internal CD-ROM drive is detected in the BIOS.

  Usually, you must press a key (for example, F2, F12, DEL, ESC) or a key combination whenever you turn on your computer, but before I get to the BIOS to start Windows. Check to see if there is the CD/DVD drive in the BIOS.

  You can see the article for more information about the BIOS:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

  Regarding the external CD/DVD drive, I suggest you see if it works on another computer.

  Thank you

  sfc/scannow                (Note that there is a space between sfc and /)

  Let the entire process, then the output type and press ENTER.

  Then, click on the Start Menu, open Control Panel and click Device Manager.  Click to open the CD/DVD-ROM drives.  Right-click on the drive and choose uninstall.  Do not delete if requested drivers.  When the device has been uninstalled click the icon 'Search for hardware changes' (usually just below help in the toolbar).  Let windows reinstall the disc and see if it works now.

• Sdatellite M100 does not recognize the CD/DVD drive in Windows XP

  It is listed in the Device Manager, but with a yellow explanation mark.
  No mention of this in my computer.
  No icon.

  I am able to open the drawer and I put several types of cd/DVD in them without any result.
  The light flashes in orange on the door. The drive is listed as "Mat * advd-ram uj - 841 s-(sm)" in the bios under boot devices.

  I'm trying to figure out how to remove the drive and reconnect but it seems that I have to disassemble the thing to do and hesitate without a diagram.

  It is only a user guide in the downloads on this site so any help is appreciated: 0)

  Oh, I also downloaded the driver from this site for the drie. Before that, I uninstalled the drive in Device Manager, but there was no change when I installed the downloaded driver.

  Simply using a Ubuntu Linux live cd and it is running.
  Unfortunately its going to be hard to know for sure what the problem in this way because I don't want to install ubuntu on this machine it is someone elses machine and they are far from would you like to try linux.

  I'm in a live session now.
  Ah ok when I go in the media folder there is no mention of the cd/dvd drive.

  It is really a problem unless I can unplug physically the Mo and reconnect: 0 (Oh wait here it... is under 'cdrom' folder ' but only files with a relevance to the side by side with windows installation are mentioned... exe files, wubi etc..)

  Ah ok that's beyond my experience.
  Can someone give this amateur a tip?

  First remove the player of ODD (CD/DVD) from the list in Device Manager.
  Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ FAT32\ CurrentControlSet \ Control\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Finally, you must restart the device.

  Once again, windows will recognize the STRANGE

• Satellite Pro A60 does not recognize the accept/DVDs blank

  My computer will not accept blank CD - R disc so I can burn data on them, but my computer will not accept blank DVD discs that I want to be able to use to store more data.

  In the drive of my computer D reads "DVD - RW", I guess so, but am not sure that this means that my pc should be usable with DVD-R and DVD - RW discs but it do not accepts / acknowledges these when I put a try to burn something on them.

  My computer also does not accept / recognize DVD + R Virgin discs as I have tried those, just in case they might work.

  Help please!

  Hello

  Have you also tried to burn DVD-R discs?
  I had also some problems with DVD + R discs, so I changed to a DVD-R and since all works well! :)

  I don't use Windows Media Player to burn discs, I use CD Burner XP. It is a freeware tool, very small and fast. It works on most versions of Windows, and you should try it too!

  Also check the Toshiba page for an update of the firmware!

• Satellite L305D-S5881 does not recognize the new HARD drive

  Ok. I've had this laptop for a while now.
  It crashed recently. So, I tried to start it up.
  I got "Winload.exe missing or damaged".

  Fortunately, I found an answer to this!
  I got the Vista installation disc and inserted.
  I had this "PAGE_ERROR_IN_NONPAGED_AREA". I fixed too. Stick of 1 GB of RAM to my computer was bad.

  So I replaced it. And during the installation, it hangs. And beeps and undesirable.
  So I thought it was my hard drive. I have a new. (http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/adet.to?poid=431567 please TAKE a LOOK BEFORE RESPONDING).

  I (try) to install and it does nothing.
  I turn it on and it goes to this page with as my enthernet info. Then I go into the BIOS and it appears. I think I could install it wrong.

  Any help?

  Hello

  I think that the new HARD drive is not recognized, because you have not installed the SATA drivers!
  The new mobile phones support the new SATA controller and especially the drivers are not included in the Windows operating system.

  So, you must first include the SATA drivers before install you the operating system.
  AFAIK the L305D supports an AMD and ATI chipset and SATA drivers must be placed in the ATI graphics driver package.

  On the other hand, you could install the operating system without the use of SATA drivers.
  I think that the BIOS must contain the SATA mode option. Usually it s set to AHCI. Pass this option in compatibility mode and you should be able to install the operating system.

  Too recent for 2805 controller?

  This HARD disk supports an ATA-5 interface and about 30GB.

  If you want to be sure that the HARD drive works in your laptop 100% please contact the service provider authorized in your country and order the HARD drive support.
