• Satellite A205: Vista & BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive

  After a crash of the sudden family Vista system premium on a Toshiba Satellite A205 the system does not recognize the DVD CD - RW drive. Neither in Explorer, Device Manager, nor BIOS.

  Laptop is only a few months old.
  Have you tried the Toshiba check system - it ignores DVD disk check.
  Tried Windows Update - does not help.
  Tried registry fix - does not help.

  Cannot use the CD to reinstall all drivers - because it is not recognized.
  The DVD drive LED is on. If the disk looks ok physically.

  Does anyone have an idea what to do?

  Very strange what s
  Try this:

  Access the BIOS and set the default settings and save the changes.
  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

  You said that the notebook is only several months old so I assume that the warranty is still valid and that's why everything has to be done for free

  Good luck my friend

• My DVD drive does not recognize DVD game discs.

  My NEC ND-4550-reader DVD - RW does not recognize DVD game discs.
  He has no problem reading movie DVDs and music CDs or access data CD and DVD burnt with data on them.
  I removed and let XP Reinstall the device and high-low filters removed the registry etc nothing works.
  I made a copy of a DVD game on another PC and it is recognized and install my PC.
  All DVD discs work very well on the other PC.
  I am running Windows XP Professional with SP2.
  MS Fixit controls indicate no problems.
  This would be a matter of software protection?
  All tried game DVDs are official records and not copies.
  The NEC ND-4550 uses cdrom.sys as pilot.

  Finally, I replaced the drive for a new one (Pioneer DVR-S18L) and everything now works as it should.
  So I suspect that it's a hardware problem and not one that can be resolved by any of the Windows settings.

• Windows 7 does not recognize the installation discs

  Hello

  I have a problem, and I don't know if there is a solution, but here goes.

  My laptop is a HP DV6-7029WM Windows 7, 64 bit.

  The hard drive was dead, and he was replaced last month.  I sent it to HP.  C is the hard drive, and was originally the recovery on D. Removable media were on E, and when I connected a USB stick or memory card reader it would on F.

  When I came back, hard drive was on C as it was originally, and there was no recovery drive D. D is now my removable media drive. When I put in a USB stick or a memory card reader, which is now on the E drive.

  After I bought this, I put the recovery on a USB key, but I've accidentally thrown out. (My mistake) So I ordered the installation diskettes after that I return my HP PC.  I had 2 DVD system recovery disks and an Application and a recovery DVD Drivery.

  I want to reinstall Windows back to the default settings. I put disc 1 (System Recovery DVD) and close.  I reboot and it goes directly to the office. I hear the whirring disc, but nothing happens.

  I go to the control panel > Recovery > advanced retrieval methods. I click on restart, and it loads files and then says DVD set, which I do. He told me that he does not recognize the installation disc.

  I googled this problem and found a poster on CNET that had the same problem as I do. Also, I can't do a system restore.  My problem is the same as this poster on CNET.  I can read DVDs and CDs.  Those that work very well.

  http://forums.CNET.com/7723-19411_102-568059/Windows-7-installation-disc-not-recognized/

  The files are on the DVD, because I see them.

  I don't know what to do. Should I send my PC back? Can I do to solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello:

  With recovery disc 1 into the DVD drive, restart the computer and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, press the ESC key to display a menu of options.

  Select the F9 boot menu option.

  Select the DVD drive on the list of bootable devices, and press the Enter key.

• Windows does not recognize a blank disc in the DVD player.

  When you try to burn a CD and have a blank CD - R into the DVD player, I get 'Windows cannot read the disk in drive D ". I tried other discs and DVD, but it seems that Windows does not recognize a blank disc. I have another DVD drive and the same is true here as well.  I tried to update the drivers and deactivation and reactivation of readers but nothing is done. However, CDs or DVDs with the content are recognized.

  I had the same problem on Windows 7 32-bit (suspect this fix as well under Vista). After trying everything under the Sun entered Services (search for programs and files, type 'Services') and looked "Shell Hardware Detection. Found that it was disabled (not sure how he got that way). Right-click on it to get the properties. Change startup type to "Automatic", press apply then OK. Problem solved without even having to restart!

• Satellite M50-A-110 does not recognize the new SSD?

  Hello

  I bought the M50-A-110 model and tried to replace the HARD drive by a Pro 840 Samsung SSD. The laptop does not recognize the SSD drive, so I sent him to the local Toshiba service for inspection.

  They discovered that the laptop does not recognize ALL of the latest SSD (they tried to Samsun, Intel, Crucial, Kingston and SSD Seagate). They checked, and I possible newer BIOS, so this isn't a problem, and the SSD worked fine on other computers.

  Someone knows how to solve this mess?
  Toshiba has a BIOS beta I could try?
  Any other ideas would be welcome.

  As a user of long date Toshiba, I must say that I am a little disappointed. I mean I work in it, and this is the first time that something like this happened to me with a new product.

  Hello

  I can't believe that Satellite M50 - A can not handle any of the mentioned SSDS.

  I upgraded my Toshiba laptop with SSD Pro 840. But before I did, the update of the firmware of SSD was necessary. Before the firmware update, the SSD has failed, after the firmware update, BIOS can handle the SSD.

  I would recommend to check the SSD for the firmware update!

  I have a problem.

  I ve downgraded my Toshiba Satellite A5222 C55T for Windows 7 64 bit and it does not have many pilots.
  Windows does not recognize my network connection and it didn't install my wireless driver.

  Maybe I need a chipset driver, but I found no drivers for windows 7.

  If Windows 7 has not recognized the LAN and WLan card, you have not installed the proper drivers.

  to me, this looks like a hardware problem. It must be checked by the service, and perhaps that the drive must be replaced.

• Satellite A205-S4777 - XP does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hello!

  Recently I buyed a new satellite Toshiba A205-S4777 with Windows Vista home premium installed
  and I noticed too many errors in Windows Vista and the pc is very slow so I decided to downgrade to XP

  I want to directly install Windows XP but the installer does not recognize the hard drive or more exactly controllers!

  I nLite Sata drivers in Windows Xp Sp2, I bought on the microsoft.com site!

  Everything worked well.
  The Installer recognized fine hard and Setup finallased!

  But here's the problem when loading windows and try to pass on gorge yourself sort of blue screen one unreadable!

  And restarts and let, it does all day the same thing!

  I'm afraid that I have not nLite the right drivers.

  Is there anyone Heve downgraded this model?
  Thanx

  Hello

  Maybe you did not use good SATA driver?  :| Who knows
  The point is that there are two different versions of Intel Matrix Storage Manager supports different chipsets.
  I put t know what chipset is in charge of your laptop but you should check this and must also check the description of the Intel Storage Manager and check what chipsets are supported.

  In addition, you should have a look here in this doc from Toshiba:

• Satellite P105-S6084: MCE does not recognize the external TV tuner

  I bought the laptop P105-S6084 of United States satellite, but I use it in the United Kingdom. It comes with Windows XP MCE and an external TV tuner. However when I try to set up the tuner, it is said that the United Kingdom is not a region supported and that I should install a different tuner. I have my old USB DVB - T stick and I tried to use that, but the CCM does not recognize.

  Can someone, please?

  I found an info that the Microsoft Windows Edition Media Center operating system is only the installer for use in the country in which the laptop was purchased. This configuration corresponds to functions such as obtaining the electronic Program Guide through the Internet.
  Maybb so the FDM may not be able to manage your TV tuner

• Satellite L50 - B suddenly does not recognize USB devices

  Suddenly my laptop does not recognize any USB.

  The USB key or external hard drive works on other computers, but not on my laptop.
  Only cards SD-are recognized.

  I tried to remove the usb portals on the Control Panel, but after I restarted my computer all returned.
  One reappear with a caveat that it does not work, but when I search a new program to run it, it can not be found. After removing it, it comes back with the same caveat.

  I also tried to download the new discs (chip set utility) but who doesn't either.
  I don't know what else to do.

  Can someone help me if I can access my USB-products once again on my laptop?

  Hello

  What about the USB mouse? You can use the USB mouse connected to one of the USB ports?

  Have you changed the system or you have installed new OS on this laptop?
  I m asking because the L50 - B Satellite supports USB 2.0 as well USB 3.0 ports

  In the case where you have installed the new OS (Win 7?) on this laptop, the USB 3.0 ports would require additional USB 3.0 driver

  However, in case that you are always using the OS preinstalled Toshiba, I recommend you to reset the initial setup and test the USB ports once more.

• Satellite A30 PSA30E - BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive

  Is it possible to restore the BIOS?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

  Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
  If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

  Please provide more info. You see error messages?

• Satellite A100 PSAA5A Windows does not recognize ethernet controller

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with a PSAA5A-01H00T A100 running Win XP sp2.
  Windows does not recognize an ethernet controller, so the wireless NETWORK card does not work, even if the wired connection is.
  I tried to install the latest WLAN drivers on the support site (two of them), does not. Windows insists that the correct drivers are not installed.

  I suspect a hardware problem and I have the user on an external wireless NETWORK card, but I would appreciate any idea that you guys can provide.

  Thank you.

  Hi mate

  What Ethernet controller is not recognized? WLan or LAN?
  You have a few unknown devices in Device Manager?
  If so, then a critical driver is missing, and so the controller is not recognized correctly.

  You n t know what LAN or Wlan chip you have and what driver is needed?
  Check this box:
