Satellite L300-01:00 - DVD in PIO mode, cannot activate DMA mode

Hello everyone,

Recently, I have a laptop Toshiba L300-01:00 and I have a little problem with the DVD-ROM drive. Maybe some of you can help me with their knowledge. So here's the problem:
The DVD runs very slow, I guess in the PIO mode. I can't switch to DMA mode because there is no options.

On ' Device Manager / IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers ' options are a single - 'Intel(r) ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller' where you cannot activate DMA mode.

I have WinXP SP2, SATA and all the other drivers installed.

So my question is, how can I enable the DMA mode for the DVD player?

Thank you very much.

Hello

I have a laptop with installed U400 XP OS and I the primary IDE channel entry into the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers.

Main channel that you can switch to the PIO or DMA is available in IE.

Now the question is; How do you install XP on your laptop?
Usually, the SATA mode must be set to AHCI in the BIOS, and you must include the SATA drivers to install Win XP on this laptop.

Then a primary IDE channel should if poster in devices and the PIO or DMA settings manager should be there.

    I try to create the ad - hoc network in Windows 7 and Linux Fedora.
    New network is listed in the OS cmdlets, but no SSID appears on my laptop.

    Also tried with hosted network (virtual wifi adapter) and app named Connectify in Win7.
    SSID appears, but is unable to connect or link broken after a few minutes without any data transfer.

    Now, I came to ask me for this built in hotspot wifi device support mode at all?

    If so, is there a setting I'm missing?
    Or some utility runs, to check if the device is broken or have a driver problem, or something...?

    I put t know who don't L300 you have exactly and can't say what WLAN card is inside but the audit model in Device Manager and try to find the specification exact Googling autour.

    To be honest I really don t know if your problem has nothing to do with Toshiba directly.

    Hello

    You use the factory settings or you have installed your own version of Windows? Maybe a driver or incompatible program is the cause.

    But to be honest, for me, it looks like a hardware malfunction or made the same mistake occurs in the BIOS?

  • Satellite L300 01:00 in WinXP-drive CD/DVD turns and stops alternately

    Hello
    I bought a new Satellite L300 01:00
    I installed Windows XP Home SP3 System (using nLite and driver of SATA Storage Manager) and all the drivers from the Web from Toshiba website.

    I have problem with CD/DVD drive (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N):
    -copy of CD/DVD on the HARD drive looks like follow: for some data of time (a few seconds up to several minutes) are the copy; then drive slows down and stops, the copy is stopped, progress bar doesn't move; After 1 minute for example the drive begins to spin and copy the next part of data. Sometimes the system stops to answer and it should reset the computer, sometimes computer restarts automatically.
    -listen to the audio CD music and watch DVD movies look like, it is easy to imagine...
    -uninstaling DVDRAM in Device Manager and reboot system helps a bit, i.e. the copy time becomes a little longer..., sometimes the problem occurs with the next CD/DVD in the drive
    AudioSilencer - don't change anything
    -write on CD/DVD is also impossible - progress bar stops after 1-2 minutes and nothing happens. Yellow led is always on and the shutdown process, you need to restart the system.

    What is interesting, drive works perfectly with the latest Debian LiveCD...

    Someone at - it ideas?

  • Can satellite L300 - I play region 1 DVD?

    I'm having a slight dilemma and would like to request a preview. I am owner of a Satellite L300/L300D and I have my eye on a specific DVD set, however its marked as region 1. I would like to know if he would play on my laptop without any requirement must be respected (basically I question whether it is multi-region).

    I have not fiddled with the operating system (it came with Vista) or drive DVD Toshiba delivered pre-installed, etc..

    Hello

    Theoretically, there s no problem to change DVD region because you can change it in the properties of the Device Manager > CD/DVD drive.

    But don t forget the region code can be changed 4 times and then it is not possible to s more, but in Device Manager you can see how many times you can change it.

  • Satellite L300-29U - Vista crashes, even in safe mode

    Hi, I really hope there is someone out there who can help me, my laptop does not work (properly) more, and I don't know what is the cause.

    * The short version: *.

    Two days ago my computer froze all of a sudden for no apparent reason. It did not (without Ctrl-Alt-Del, etc), I could only move the pointer. Since then, has happened repeatedly, even in safe mode. A potential clue: runs chkdsk c: \r \f results in a blue screen.

    * Details: *.

    I have a Satellite L300-29U (about 3.5 years) with Windows Vista.
    Two days ago the computer is not responding, after running normally for a few hours. I had not installed a new hardware or software. Even the clock had stopped. Only the pointer could be moved, but clicking on had no effect, or no has Ctrl-Alt-Delete. I stopped him via the power button. It restarted normally, I opened it then Firefox, but shortly after the same problem has emerged.
    I selected the Mode without fail to start and then let my antivirus (Avira) program a complete check of the system. The computer froze again after about an hour and 30% in the analysis. (Curiously, the timer showing how much time had passed since the beginning of the analysis was still running, but had stopped the clock of the computer.)
    Later, I tried another full analysis and again once it froze. Before that, I ran a few quick scan negative that came.

    In general, I find that Windows starts fine, but in normal mode it freezes pretty quickly when I try to do something. In safe mode, it freezes more quickly, but it's still sometimes.

    I also tried the "repair your computer" option at startup.
    -System Restore does not help
    -Memory Diagnostic is not a problem

    Searching online, I found suggestions for select command prompt and try to chkdsk. My conclusions:
    -chkdsk c: /f gives no indication of errors. The only thing that might be unusual is the following message at the end (translated from Dutch): "cannot transfer the log to the event log messages. Status 50. »
    -chkdsk c: /r /f results in a blue screen, each time to the same point in the process, namely, the 4th stage (verification of the data of the file), after having transformed the 133 634 files. The blue screen that appears shows the following:

    -----
    QUOTE
    A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
    (...)
    Technical information: * STOP: 0 x 00008086 (0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
    WORDS
    -----

    * Things I have NOT tried (again): *.

    -Execution of TOSHIBA hard drive recovery
    -Formatting the hard drive

    Why not try these again is that I still have a glimmer of hope that he might be up to a corrupt file, and I don't want to use a gun if it turns out to be a mosquito.

    I tried to look online for questions asked by people with problems and similar symptoms, but I find not only the case with some similarities, not exactly the same thing.

    Any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

    > Two days my computer froze all of a sudden for no apparent reason
    Above all it s sign parts hardware problem as a module of memory or the motherboard can cause this.

    > Since it happened repeatedly, even in safe mode. A potential clue: runs chkdsk c: \r \f results in a blue screen.

    The command chkdsk access and HARD drive tests so it could also be that the HARD drive is the troublemaker.

    From my point of view, you should start the recovery and should set the device to the factory settings.
    If the device would not work even after you have used the factory condition, I guess that one of the mentioned parts malfunctions.
