Satellite M30X-144 DVD - RAM cannot read DVD

Hello

I have a portable Satellite M30X-144 and I'm having a problem with my DVD player (Mat * a DVD - RAM UJ-8315).

I can play CDs, but when I put any kind of DVD in there, it does not read anything.

What can I do to solve it?

Hi João,.

you have a problem with your DVD player? I suggest the following:

Remove the disc in the "device manager" Windows, let windows reinstall, test if it works. If the same problem persists contact an ASP in local (certified partner)
because your drive is probably faulty then your machine should be checked by a qualified technician.
Here is a site where you can find the nearest ASP:

I hope that I helped you a little bit of the problem of your Satellite M30X. ;)

Greetings from Croatia

    According to this statement you must have installed Windows XP SP3 home edition.

    Your ad is a bit confusing to me. You have a problem with the functionality of DVD - RAM or optical disc drive cannot read all drives (different CD, DVD, DVD - R formats. DVD + R and so on)?

    I put t know what is the problem with the optical disc drive, but way generally, an installation of software packages has nothing to do with ODD when you use it as first boot device.

    I have a problem with a carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ 8425 in my notebook U200.

  • Satellite A20-130: SD-R2412 cannot read that DVD burned in some optical drives

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite A20-130, running Windows XP and Ununtu Dapper in a double score. My 2nd laptop is not a Toshiba. When I burned the DVD (DVD + R) with my laptop Toshiba no and played against them in my Satellite everything has worked well.

    However, when I bought a new optical drive for my 2nd my Toshiba laptop suddenly stopped playing DVDs burned in this new optical disc (I was using exactly the same brand of disc and the same format - DVD + R). I tried the old DVD (those burned in the laptop before that material from the optical drive has been upgraded) and they can still read perfectly well.

    This problem applies to both Ubuntu and Windows XP. Computer support portable 2nd said that sounds like a problem of firmware with my Toshiba. I updated the driver for my optical drive Toshiba R2412 SD (which according to the manual of the leader, seems to fix a DVD-Ram compatibility issue). Now the reader occasionally reads some of the new DVDs burnt (after doing lots of noise and waiting for ages), but more often that not, I get an error message saying that the device cannot be read, because the format is wrong or the device needs to be formatted.

    This computer non-Toshiba laptop read DVD, it burns using the optical drive improved perfectly.

    Hello

    Satellite A20 is old enough laptop model, and after intensive use, it may be that the disc is more sensitive. If all this happens occasionally there no explanation just why this happens.

    I know it's pretty boring, but I don't see any magic solution. In the end, you should test with new disc.

  • Satellite P100-10U preinstalled Vista cannot read DVD - event code 11

    After the work with my new Toshiba P100-10U system could not read DVD more, it is still able to read CD-Roms! In Device Manager, an exclamation point grey is visible.

    The event log indicates repeatedly "Treiber Der hat einen Controllerfehler auf \Device\CdRom0 found.", something like "the pilot detected error on \Device\CdRom0 controller."

    I installed the system again, but the wrong behavior is still there.
    The system has a carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s drive.

    I already checked the registry entry {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}. There's no UpperFilter or UpperFilter attributes.

    Any idea?

    Thank for Kalle

    Hello

    I m really surprised because such error problem should be resolved after the installation of the new operating system.
    More as you already suggested the filter upstream and downstream in the registry key are mainly responsible for these strange drive problems.

    In any case, I recommend to remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot the laptop. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the CD/DVD drive again. You should see a message as new device has been installed or something like that

    In addition, it would be desirable to use a system like CCleaner repair program. It s freeware!

    Finally, you should check the registry again if the upper and lower filter exists and delete it.
    Don t forget to reboot the device.

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro M10: IO error, cannot read DVDs/CDs, USB driver for Port Replicator

    I had to format my m10 pro like the multidrive dvd kept as an IO error and refuses to read my dvd/cd etc.
    I reloaded all software and the multidrive dvd (Panasonic coursc 810) will always return the same IO error.
    I have also continued to asked a USB driver load? Replicator port, I can't find my original installation CD?
    Someone help please?

    Hello Joe

    I saw in some your previous assignments that you use external DVD drive too.

    I use my Tecra with Replicator port and a multi LG external DL disk attached to the port replicator (due to the fast data transfer firewire connection). Everything works fine and I wonder how you can have all of these problems.

    If your device is set up correctly, including all the original drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba download page should not have any problem. I hope that you have installed the unit without port replicator and you don t forget Mobile extension tool. As much as I know there is no driver for Replicator port and all the signals are loop just to the ports of the replicaror port.

    What is the status of the Panasonic player in Device Manager? The drive is displayed in Windows Explorer?

  • Satellite M30x + Win7: DVD not detected by the CD/DVD drive

    Hello

    I use a M30x since 2004 with its CD/DVD drive * a S mat. DVD-RAM UJ-831
    When I was with Windows XP, I have never had problems to read or write on CD, CD - R, DVD, DVD - R or DVD - RW. But recently I installed windows seven, and since that day the drive won't recognize the DVD. I can still read and burn CDs and CD - R. I'm burning the same Virgin DVD-+ R/RW as before, but the drive won't detect them. Those I have already burn are not detected or the other.
    My computer says that the CD/DVD drive work properly and drivers are up to date.
    I tried to clean the lens, but nothing has changed. And I tried to reinstall the drivers, but I could not found for windows seven.

    Thanks for the help.

    My satellite L40 was bought a year ago, and so far I never needed the system restore CD. But now I have a missing system file so I will try to re - install. But my computer will not read the CD, if I insert it before starting my computer or windows Vista.
    Is there a way I can download the CD to restore the system on the Internet?

    No you can't download because that would hurt microsoft license stuff. I recommend you ask a partner in your country for replacement, if your machine is still under warranty.

    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.
