• 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:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314060

  I had a similar problem that some discs can't be read more. And I went thorugh based forum to clean the CD/DVD drive lens with a microfibre cloth. Be careful if you do this and don't scratch the lens.

• HP 15 Notebook PC: iTunes error 4450 - can't burn CDs

  I bought this laptop 2 months ago. It has all the latest updates installed. I bought the laptop computer mainly to house all my files itunes, images and videos. I managed to transfer all the data to the laptop, but my first attempt to burn a CD from itunes, I got an "unknown error 4450.  I then tried burning the files manually on a drive using the Cyberlink burning software which is installed on the laptop and it also did not work.  It starts as it will burn the disc, runs for 30 seconds and then stops and opens drive poster "Audio CD - #0xEB020BED - an unknown error has been found.

  Because I could not manually burn a cd, I suppose that the problem is in the laptop and is not iTunes.  It seems that something is wrong, but I don't know how to solve this problem.  Because the laptop is new, a system restore probably will not solve anything, especially if it's a failure of construction plant.  If I can't burn CDs on this unit, he was buying at all.

  Please notify.

  For those seeking the resolution of a similar error, it was a setting in the default programs in the laptop. The WIndows Disk Image burner is by default to read mp4 files. Once I changed that, it works great now in iTunes and Power2Go.

• Satellite M70 - 159-> update bios-> DVD ROM missing

  Hello
  I have the Satellite M70-159, PSM71E
  I made the big mistake, please help and suggestions are welcome.

  History:
  I installed Windows XP home sp2
  A few days ago I tried to update my hardware drivers (last attempt was a few years ago) and the BIOS too.
  So, first of all, I decided to update the bios of 1.30 to 1.50
  -bios150win has been downloaded and install completely and it works very well. But since then, that my laptop doesn't see DVD - ROM - it disappeared at all.
  WindowsXP says - no CD/DVD-ROM in your stack of material, and I can't boot from bootable CD/DVD drive.

  I tried to downgrade the BIOS to 1.30 but the f * ng tool shows me a message that I have more new bios and I do not need to downgrade.
  Hey! Toshiba! Please, give me a chance! Just remove your Bios update a few lines of code! Do not check the version of the bios.

  PPL! Please help. Because now I can't reinstall OS, I can't burn, I can't get my data, I can't do anything.

  Thank you
  MIMO

  Thanks for the info, but could you please post how you solved this?

• Satellite A200 - 23P - mechanic of DVD - rom does not

  I'm sorry for my English in advance this topic! -Thank you

  I have a very big problem with my engraver of DVD (RM).
  I bought SAT A200 - 23P three weeks ago.
  The Win VISTA operating system has been installed. DVD - rom worked well.

  If I have installed Win XP to the second partition on my HARD drive (to install the disk with driver for sata drive in nlite) and installed all the drivers and utilities for Toshiba laptop, I found that my DVD-rom is not working while I press eject button.

  Mechanic of DVD is not responding to eject in XP and not even in the BIOS!
  It is interesting, mechanic DVD is the detection in BIOS, detects in XP, XP operating system votes - mechanic to the DVD works properly - its fable.

  However, if I have installed XP on the second partition, Win Vista does not load :(
  I don't have a second chance for second selection (Vista and XP).
  I now have XP only, even if Vista is on the first partition - I didn't delete it.

  Do you think that the DVD-rom is HW or SW problem?
  I think that, given that the DVD-rom does not in the BIOS - HW error.

  But is very strange, if I install XP from mechanic to the DVD and then close is, DVD - rom does not...:)

  If I manually open and insert the CD, the DVD does not (diode led no blink, just if I turn off the computer, led blinked once).

  PLS help me someone-

  Thank you!

  Hi Michal

  Your question is very strange, I mean the number of CD/DVD drive

  The fact is that the readers of CD/DVD eject function functions should any operating system has been installed on your laptop. It has nothing to do with your software on the HARD drive.

  So I wonder why the eject button works with Vista and not XP preinstalled OS?  :|

  My only plausible explanation is that sometimes there is a bad connection between the laptop and the drive. However the problem could be related to the hardware problem too

  As you see it s not easy to say what's wrong exactly, we can only speculate.

  Now some details about your installation of OS double.

  You cannot choose between Windows XP and Vista because Vista boot manager was obliterated during the installation of Win XP.
  This happened to me also. I installed Win XP on my Satellite and could not start Vista.

  The solution was simple; I used another original DVD of Vista (from my friend) and booted from this DVD. Vista has renewed the Boot Manager, and then I was able to boot Vista.

  Then I downloaded the tool called Easy BCD.
  This tool can change the Vista Boot Manager settings. I've edited and inserted a new Windwos XP OS entry.

  That s it!

  -In the management of the computer the CD-ROM (Dvd - rom) doesnot appear;

  2. has tried to remove the DVD CD Rom of the computer laptop but cannot get 'live', who still holds the DVD CD rom on its place.

  Please let me know what I could do.

  + The message was edited: changed laptop model name +.

  Hello

  I assume that you have installed Win XP on this oldi.
  Win XP and other systems such as Win Vista or Win 7 use the Microsoft CD/DVD driver and a STRANGE special drivers is therefore not necessary.
  The ODD (optical disc) must be recognized by Win XP automatically without installation of any other drivers driver update is not necessary.

  I recommend the removal of the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager, and then remove the upper and lower registry filters.

• Satellite L30-134 PSL33E: CD/DVD player can't read data CD

  I bought my laptop (Satellite L30-134 PSL33E) 4 months ago and I had no problem with the optical drive of my Satellite. But yesterday, I discovered that my drive is no longer can read data CDs.

  I created a CD with the Toshiba ToDisc utility which contained MP3s. The CD works fine on another computer but when I try to play them on this computer Windows laptop tells me that the CD is blank and asks me if I want to save data.

  It doesn't have this problem with the DVD, I can read and write perfectly. My optical drive is a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S. Windows says I have the latest driver for it (5.1.2535.0) but it says it's from 2001 (?) in the properties under the selected hardware.

  Help, please!

• Satellite M100 boot from CD/DVD-Rom

  A friend tried to put a standard of operation of XP sp2 on its M100 cause he has lost all the cd of for her!

  Of course the laptop does not start to the top of the cd/dvd-rom more!
  How can format us again and all the hardware work properly again if it does not start?

  It is really strange. Please try all three methods to force the CD/DVD drive to start as first boot device:

  -change the settings of the BIOS
  -use F12 at startup and choose the CD/DVD drive
  -Press c at start up

  Somehow, he has to work.

  By the way:

  What you think with OF COURSE? Is this normal or how do we understand it?

• Re: Satellite A100-207 player of DVD-ROM must be replaced

  My DVD - ROM drive has stopped reading / recognition of the disks. It is not a case of needing a disc cleaner so I think it plays up and needs to be replaced. Someone has any advice / manuals etc. to know how to get chase him and the perils of trying such a replacement?

  I would appreciate all the advice really.

  Thank you.

  I tried once in my previous laptop, it is not as easy as a desktop PC, because readers of the laptop are not exactly standard.

  The façade of the new player was not properly aligned, and I could not transfer the front plate of the defective drive because the buttons and the clips are different.
  More it would work even without the façade, the laptop simply failed to detect.

  I think it was a firmware issue.

  So if you want a replacement, the best option would be to go to a Toshiba Service Center and replace the disk with a real. You may even be able to upgrade to a DVD-R/W drive.

  Are but before you replace the disk, you sure this isn't a software problem? It boot from the bootable CD?
  It may just be the upper/lower filters in the registry.

• Satellite A20-S103: can't burn CDs

  I use satellite A20-S103.
  my laptop won't burn CD more!
  This laptop uses a combo CDRw-DVD-ROM
  It reads, but he's not burn CDs?
  I looked in the tools and utilities cdrom. I saw a driver called DVDRAM. also I searched toshiba.com drivers latest. She also wrote driver DVDRAM here.

  What is the true driver?
  What can I do to fix this?

  Hello

  As far as I know, DVD player is automatically recognized by the operating system and you n t need to install any driver. Driver DVD-RAM is something else and it is not only the driver but the little tool too and must be installed if the unit has DVD - RAM drive.

  If you can't burn CD the only thing you can do is to do some tests.
  Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then restart the device. The reader will be recognized and installed automatically
  Check if you have any success with the media from different manufacturers
  Try to clean the lens

  If this does not help, I guess that your drive should be replaced.

  Good luck!

• Tecra S1: DVD ROM not recognized burner (Plextor PX-608AL)

  Hi all

  I bought a DVD ROM Writer (Plextor PX-608AL) that is not recognized by my Tecra S1 with XP Pro.

  I installed the latest BIOS v2.50 as well as the latest Windows patches.

  To the search, in the Setup of the BIOS (ESC during startup), the drive is not available.

  I tested the drive in my old non - Toshiba with Win2k laptop with no problems.

  Mounting frame is also OK (tested with the original Toshiba DVD ROM)

  Y at - there a trick to getting a 3rd disc part DVD working in a Tecra notebook?
  What is generally a problem

  Thanks for reading my ad and you answers or advice

  Klaus

  Hello

  It won't be very easy get your new work of drive on your S1, I will explain why:

  Most DVD players for laptops (including your Plextor 608AL) do not have jumpers to set
  their place according to the requirements of the laptop.
  Three settings are available: master/slave/CableSelect

  Most Toshiba laptops require the CD to react as a secondary master drive, unfortunately
  a disc factory settings in bulk comes as a disk Primary Master or CS.

  There are two options how to get to missing jumpers to make it work.
  (1) thanks to a new firmware patch that has this option defined by the software based on Toshiba standard or
  (2) by a bridge of material on some pins to the back of the drive.

  As you can see, both options will cancel the guarantee of the reader and are not easy for a techie/technician.

  As for option 1) on the search for a suitable firmware... no there are none available now. I checked the official site of Plextor, but also sites of patch firmware... NO CONCLUSION.
  According to another Forum, business Plextor responded to a request for a firmware adapted with this answer:

  start of quote:
  Dear Sir.

  The drive is detected beeing as a master drive.
  This setting cannot be changed. Are there no rider to do so.
  How mount you the device to your laptop, it's up to you.
  It of different for every laptop and either found in the manual of books or you can request that information from the manufacturers for your laptop.

  Kind regards
  end quote (source: http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=199145 )

  As in option 2), it requires some skills with soldering and I do not think that this forum is suitable for me to explain this procedure. You should google around to find the procedure "pin 47 ashore" on your own, taking all the risks of losing the warranty and/or the drive on your own.

• I can't burn CDs on my Satellite A 100-455

  Hello

  My problem is that I can't burn the files to CD with my Satellite A 100-455. I tried different types of CD, but the driver does not see anyone of them!
  The driver is reading CD correctly either CD or DVD. Any idea?

  Thank you

  Hello

  What program you´re with the help of burn your files? Are you trying to burn the files with windows Explorer? Maybe you should try another program, such as Nero or cdburnerXP (which is free for download).

  Another option would be to go on the toshiba driver download site and download the latest driver DVD-RAM of your machine if it is not already done.

  Would be nice if you give some information you give some information on your problem.

  I restarted the laptop with the recovery cd, but still the same problems. Before robooting, I used nero 6, thougth perhaps, this is the problem in nero, now using just Sonic record now accompanies the DVD.

  Please anybode help me?

  Hello

  How to help you if you don't mention what CD cannot be burned (original music CD, homes burned CDs, just specific producers, only some files are not readable). Give us more info on this issue.

  Check a little better, and if there is no success is perhaps the defective drive. It is well known that some CD (a cheaper) cannot be burned properly.
