Satellite L750 - upgrade of Windows 8 - DVD Drive missing

I have upgraded to Windows 8, after a short then I found the DVD was not displayed in Explorer windows and devices. I had seen this before on another laptop and install drivers SATA 8 Win seemed to heal.

I went to the section pilot on the Toshiba site for this model and there is none for SATA. Can someone point me in the right direction for a fix or Win 8 SATA drivers for the this model please?

    I CAN read the disc I've burned before the upgrade (with files/photos matching on etc.)

    Someone at - it ideas? Tried to update the driver and by stopping the service Detection hardware kernel (such as recommended on a forum of MS), but no luck

    Thanks in advance!

  • Satellite A660 - do not find external DVD drive

    Hey guys. Newbie displaying in total despair of and needing help! I posted in other forums without success. I bought a Samsung SH-D162D DVD drive in a USB enclosure to connect to my Satellite A660 via USB.

    I can't get Windows 7 to find! When I plug in the USB cable, the ball comes up to say that it has been installed (sometimes), I can see it on for about 1 or 2 minutes then he falls. It is not listed in my hardware or anything. Its not found in disk management or my devices, so it is not a case to change the drive letter - I can't find the drive to change. I also tried to find upper and lower settings in regedit. Could not find them so couldn't remove them as suggested in other posts of this nature.

    It is set to master, the IDE connector and power connectors are very good. Its got to be a cause of problem of Windows 7 it comes very briefly. In the minute or 2 sound, I can't do anything with it. It crashes right although it will open and close. I've google it and can't find anything. Mainly of registry issues, but they did not help.

    Ive also connected to another laptop with XP and had no problems so I know the DVD Rom works very well and all the cables are ok. Ive tried all 4 USB ports on my laptop and also disabled all the parameters of energy. All with no luck. And I also all Windows 7 update.

    This is exactly what happens to the power out of the Cabinet.

    1. I connect the USB cord then turn on the enclosure.
    2 - I quickly click Start, and I can see the DVD Rom E player beside my computer laptop dvd rom.
    3 - the green bar above starts to fill to the top, from left to right and gets to half way then suddenly disappears icon of DVD Rom and makes the green bar.
    4. He then flashes up in computers laptops DVD Rom icon with a player of Local E drive, but only for a fraction of a second.
    5. sometimes a balloon comes up saying peripheral installation, then the installed device successfully... but not every time.

    And that's all. I'm at a total loss and the cant work, so any help is really appreciated!

    Hi Smee,

    So if you have already connected the external hard drive on another computer, and it worked correctly, it seems to be a driver or compatibility between your external DVD drive problem and and your Satellite A660

    It will be connected to the port USB then you tried to remove all the USB ports on the Device Manager? After that, you must restart your computer and the USB ports will be recognized automatically from the Device Manager. In addition, I would also try updating the chipset driver. New version, which you can download on the official website of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Have you also tested other devices on your A660 if they work properly?

  • Satellite T110 - powered by USB CD/DVD drive not recognized in BIOS

    I have the T110, I can create recovery disks in Windows but when I restart the computer and press F12 it shows no CD/DVD drive in the BIOS.

    So I can't restore to start or boot from external CD/DVD drive.

    Help!

    Hey,.

    I n t have the laptop in front of me but check the BIOS if you can find an option called USB legacy support. If Yes, you need to activate this feature that your laptop can recognize the external hard drive.

    You can boot from a USB? I mean that you can also create files recovery on a USB key, so it would also be an option to restore factory settings.

    Hi Rob

    It is quite complicated to explain how to remove the optical disk drive. Before you do this, you must remove the top cover. The optical disk drive is fixed with two screws. When you remove the two of them, you can get out the ODD of its Bay.

    Sorry, but without exact maintenance manuals is not easy to explain this. It is quite complicated to disassemble the procedure for this model of laptop. Do you have already removed your Satellite Pro?

  • Satellite L650 - upgrade from Windows 7 Home Professional

    Hello

    I have the Satellite L650 - 15G with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium edition. Due to some limitations of this OS, I want to upgrade to Windows 7 professional since I am in Dubai, WAU is not available for me. I called Microsoft and they said I have to get through retailers.

    My query is, is it all Toshiba support available in the UNITED Arab Emirates, to upgrade the operating system? Toshiba allow the upgrade through the channel of the where I bought my laptop?

    Microsoft is not good!

    Hello

    As much as I know there no support for Toshiba to upgrade the operating system. Only the preinstalled OS will be supported, and some models are available with different versions of Windows.

    In any case, I think that Microsoft is right and you will need to purchase a Windows 7 upgrade disk. Using this disk, you can start the upgrade. This should be possible without new installation so that all programs and data will not be erased.

  • After dismantling Satellite A60 cannot detect the CD/DVD drive

    Hello

    I opened my laptop to clean-up and it was the first time that I never opened a laptop. Messed up at the opening of the cd/dvd drive.
    Instead of just pulling out, I started its opening screw but quickly realized that this is not the right way. So I took it out. Rest of the disassembly procedure went well and I assembled it back but he little silver r 2 bands and a small source, which I'm sure that belongs to the CD player and I couldn't adapt it.
    And I don't know how it fits.
    The computer does not detect the drive. Although I can open it by clicking on the Open button, then he hang out by sharp object. (The light will blink showing the power exists in)

    The second thing is the microphone. I've never used until last week, but my voice is going through. The system does not detect any microphone.

    Help appreciated

    Hello

    On this path, it is not easy to say what is the problem with CD/DVD player. Are there signs of the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager or the drive is not displayed in Windows Explorer?

    How did you test mic? Try it with the tape recorder for windows. So you can test the functionality of the mic on the easiest way.
