• Satellite Pro U300 - CD DRIVE NOT RECOGNIZED IN MY COMPUTER

  My cd/dvd drive is no longer recognized in my computer. It seems to be working, opens and closes and seeing little flashes when I put in a disc. but the disc does not load and the hard drive is not available in 'computer '.

  Ive tried the Device Manager. He comes in there, and ive done the scan for hardware changes and its still not to come. Ive also tried the microsoft help forum, and their suggestion didn't help either.

  Any ideas?

  > Ive tried Device Manager. He comes in there, and ive done the scan for hardware changes and its still not to come.
  Have you checked if the drive is listed in the BIOS?
  Check this please.

  I thought is might be only a registry key problem, but if the drive is not listed in Device Manager, if the BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive, then a hardware malfunction could be possible

• Impossible to install Win 7 on Satellite C660 - 26H - HARD drive not recognized

  I reinstall windows 7 on a Satellite C660 - 26H
  The hard drive failed on this laptop, so I added a new Toshiba 160 GB sata drive.

  When I try to install windows 7 I get the error message

  "no device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click ok"

  I get this when I would normally be choose which windows installation disc too. I guess I need driver sata for the laptop?

  Where can I get the driver for this laptop sata?
  Or do I have driver sata for the new hard drive?

  Any help appreciated, thanks!

  Hello

  First check to see if the new HARD drive is listed and recognized in the BIOS. It must appear on the first page of the BIOS.

  If his list, and save the changes by pressing F10 and access to the BIOS.

  I'm not very well if you need the SATA drivers because AFAIK Win 7 should already contain a standard SATA driver from m.

  However, the SATA drivers are on Intel page.
  You should look for Intel Storage Manager.

  You can use nLite software to create a new XP CD and include drivers SATA (Intel Storage Manager) on this new CD of XP.
  The nLite is a freeware software and you can find and download from many Web sites.

  Google is the key ;)

• New DVD drive not recognized on my Satellite Pro 4600

  Hi all

  I recently bought an engraver of DVD in NEC ND-6650 nine.
  This drive is NOT recognized by my Satellite Pro 4600 at all - neither Windows 2000 nor in the BIOS (v 2.60). BIOS updates higher than the 2.60 version are not provided.
  Does that mean I can forget about using the new writer in my old notebook?

  Thank you and best regards,

  Nils

  Hi Nils,

  I suspect that your new drive may be not be compatible with your laptop. Like all scanners to your new drive will be configured as slave or master (or CSEL possible), and this configuration should match your laptop.

  Usually your hard drive is configured as master on IDE channel 0 with optical drive is the slave on the same channel device. However, you may find that your optical drive is configured as master on the IDE 1 channel.

  Normally the setting is preconfigured by the manufacturer so you will need to check both the conficuration of your new drive and the configuration of your original drive to make sure they are the same.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A30-514: BIOS is not recognizing the CD/DVD or HARD drive

  Hi I'm having a little trouble with my Toshiba Satellite A30 friends. The hard drive died recently, and the cd tray was damaged.
  I found an exact replacement unit and we have a new hard drive, but the Bios is not recognizing the hard drive or Cd/DVD unit.

  I installed Windows Me via my own laptop and boot from the hard drive of the computer's hard disk, but it still does not recognize the DVD even if Windows does, and it is fully operational.

  This prevents me to install windows XP, the operating system it is. If anyone can help, I'd be much obliged, too, I flashed the bios with V1.80.

  Hello

  It is the first time I heard about this issue. The Bios doesn't recognize the drive but Windows is possible use it t.
  Why suggest that peut t BIOS recognizes the drive? Is it not possible to boot from the drive?
  Check if the IDE controller is enabled and the Boot section. The CD/DVD drive should be selected and activated.

• Satellite M70: HARD drive not recognized external - various XP error messages

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M70 and I have a Western Digital external hard drive.
  Initially, it worked great, I was able to put my large collection of music, etc. on it and run a computer off to save space on my integrated HD.

  But recently I had problems with XP not recognizing HD or be able to write in it. It appears in my computer, then disappear, often randomly when I write new files to it.
  I reformatted the hard drive to NTFS as it ran originally as FAT32.

  I updated my BIOS as well, but I'm out of ideas.

  Anyone else had similar problems with XP?

  Thank you

• Floppy USB drive not recognized when installing WinXP on Satellite Pro L40

  History:

  I bought a Satellite Pro L40, it came with windows vista. I can't stand vista windows for obvious reasons. so I formatted the HARD drive. I have a copy of windows XP.

  IV ' e read on the internet that I need Intel storage driver manager...

  IA´ve got the driver, he got on a floppy, and it does not, because when I start to install XP, it works (after pressing F6 & choose the driver to install). I come to the part of license agreement, press F8 accept...

  I select the partition I want to use (in format completely on vista). It starts to load more stuff... so he said "PLEASE INSERT LABELD - INTEL MATRIX STORAGE MANAGER DRIVER - DISK IN DRIVE A:" "PRESS ENTER WHEN READY."

  The disc that I used in the first place is always in. when I press on enter, nothing NOT to PAST (the USB floppy drive is not yet into action)

  How can I make it work? It is that I can get.

  I DON'T WANT BACK TO VISTA - HELP!

  This could happen if the floppy USB doesn t drive supports the standards of law. Some people have reported on different websites many floppy drives are not recognized.

  However, worry guy. I have a solution ;) (jeaaa: D)

  Try to create a new XP CD using the software called nLite!
  Then, you could include the SATA (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) driver in this new CD and then you could boot from the XP CD again.

  For details and how to use the nLite please Google because there are a lot of useful Web sites.

  HI Paul,.

  I think that your first priority will be to remove the virus from your laptop. The following link contains the virus details: -.

  You are shown in the BIOS to CD-ROM? If yes then set to be the first selectable boot device and you should be able to load your recovery disk and restart it.

• CD/DVD drive not recognized by Windows Vista

  I installed a suite of burningb of CD and DVD on my Toshiba (under Vista Home Premium). My CD/DVD drive appeared more in the computer and was no longer functional. I deleted the program I installed and apparently caused the problem, but it did not help. I have read through the help of Microsoft (929461, 314060) documents and used the Fix - It utility. Also unsuccessful. I discovered the response of Martin, the technical support engineer made on May 5, 2009. I followed his instructions with great success. However, my question now is this: I have still some remains of the problem left over. I get an error message at startup saying, 'InstaBurn UDF driver is not installed correctly. Run the InstaBurn installation program. ' InstaBurn is part of the suite of the copy (hotpics by Nova Development Corp.).  I also have an error message of my reader DVD Toshiba saying that the DVD player does not work - although it is. I played a DVD as a test on it after that I followed the instructions above. How can I remove these error messages annoying that aren't accurate?  Would appreciate any information about this minor - but annoying problem.

  Hello

  Do a Restore Point then you can go back to where you are if necessary although you should not have to:

  ---------------------------------------------------------------

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
