Satellite L25 does burn the DVD-R

Hello

I am not very computer so I hope it's a simple question. I have a Satellite L25 with a DVD-ROM.
I am trying to record a video on a disc. It works when I save it to a CD - RW, but it does not seem to recognize the a DVD-R disc that I bought a whole bunch of today.

Have I bought the hard drive or is there something in my computer that should be adjusted?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Karen

Hello

I found information that on some laptops Satellite L25 there was only a CD-RW/DVD-Rom drive installed. In this case, you can only burn the CD and read only DVD-ROMS.
In this case, all ok on your laptop. You must use compatible support

  • DVD - RW DVR-K17LF for the Satellite series does not read DVD but only to CD

    Hello

    I have a serious problem with my DVD player.
    He stopped to work. I mean, he's not reading CD but not DVD discs.
    I don't know what the problem is.

    I went on the internet and found no solution.

    Please help me.
    It is not a software problem, because my laptop does not start the DVD, but due to the CD...

    Hello

    The issue could be linked to the anomaly of the player's laser lens.
    Maybe the lens can not handle the DVD because of a physical constraint.
    In most cases, the lens can not calibrate properly and therefore different media would not work.
    In this case there is not much to do in most of the cases that the drive needs to be replaced.

    But maybe you could try to clean the drive s laser lens using a cleaning professional who could be bought from the other computer dealers.
    I don't very well if this will help but it s worth to try m

    PS: Try this:
    Remove the drive from Device Manager, access the registry and remove the filters top and bottom of this key;
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Then restart the laptop and check the functionality of s by car.

    Hi people,

    New on here have just got my laptop last week.
    It is a standard configuration with Windows 7 64 bit and the DVD - RW is a Pioneer model.

    I used CD no problem to install programs, etc, but yesterday put a DVD movie into the machine for the first time only for it to purr and turn the disc for a few moments and then do nothing.

    I tried the DVD of all regions and tried to find any updated drivers without success.
    Standard dvd only software on it and I haven't installed burn programs etc. it can have an impact.

    The only strange thing is that the driver is from 2006 and seems to speak of CDs.
    Before contacting toshiba, does anyone have any suggestions?

  • Satellite S1410-S102 - replace the DVD drive

    Hello!

    On my Satellite S1410-S102 DVD player is not always correctly read DVD. Is it possible to replace it rather than getting an external?

    Hello!

    To change the DVD player on this model, it is not so easy. You have to remove many parts and remove several screws so I think it's better use you an external drive.

    But if you're familiar with this, you can try it because it is possible to change the disc.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L500 - cannot run the DVD-ROM games

    I am currently having problems with my Toshiba Satellite L500 series. The problem is, I can run purchased audio CD, as well as DVDs of the films, but I can't run games DVDrom. Music CD will automatically start Media Player very well, as well as films in their corresponding players... Games (like Dragon Age Origins and Left 4 Dead) DVD - ROM cannot read, or be recognized. When I go to "Computer" and try to access the game, it says "no available disk. Please insert disc into drive D: ". So from what I understand, the CD/DVD-rom may not be completely broken if he reads all types, except for games to DVDrom.

    Can someone help me with this please! It is quite frustrating because my computer is just now to a year! I wouldn't think that all computer companies sell computers that fall apart after a year... I was hoping that it was different with Toshiba.

    Once more, the CD/DVD-ROM can read CD and DVD of the film, but NOT the games to DVDrom. Help, please! Thanks in advance!

    Hi adecker,.

    Maybe it s caused due the upper and lower filters in the registry. You should try to remove as you can read in this article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
