Satellite M35 - drive replacement DVD and compatibility

My dvd - rw is no longer work and must be replaced. I started this adventure in position directly on the Toshiba site to order my disc replacement on their part. Toshiba provided to order my replacement is a dead link. Given no option to replace my drive by Toshiba, I had no choice but to look elsewhere. I finally found a dvd - rw, the same brand and model, but alas, I have IDE dreaded #2 in startup error.

I read that the 3rd replacement of readers cd Toshiba through third-party vendors is not an easy thing to do. It seems that the readers are master by default but Toshiba sets on the slave, which means that a player with the default settings will not work. However, it was suggested that it might be possible to work around this problem by flashing the firmware of the player.

My dvd - rw drive is broken and Toshiba can't solve this problem, then, how can I fix it instead?

I put t know what you mean less difficulty it but we know that defective optical drive will not be repaired but exchanged. Usually in the user s manuals document there is a list of all compatible optical disk drives. I put t know if the same situation is in US, manual s user (I presume M35 is model laptop us).

Satellite M30, you can use

  • Satellite P100-286 stuttering DVDs and games

    Hi all

    I just bought a P100-286, the VISTA OS and come with DVD and games stutter.
    I updated to the latest graphic driver on the Toshiba site, and made sure all the settings are set on the performance (although it seems to make no difference).
    I put this down to VISTA, but it is very annoying.
    Is anyone else having the same problem / found a solution?
    Any help will be appreciated.

    I found a few threads here in the forum about stuttering game on P100 with Vista.
    The problem was the Vista operating system. After installing XP, everything is fine!

  • Satellite A210-171 - replacement screen and HARD drive

    Hello

    My partner is having some problems with his laptop computer, namely one - screen flickering Guard (lines run through, like a jump of TV) indicates that there may be a problem to use. She's out of its warranty, so I'm going to replace the screen.
    Can anyone suggest where to look for a replacement, we are not rich - I have a budget for it and so I'm looking for some advice.

    Second, she had a replacement hard drive recently, the person who put the new, has done so with a lot less of it, 60 GB instead of 160 GB, I'm looking to replace it in the same was as above.

    So, can you give me advice on this practice as the last time I worked on a portable computer was 2001 (the size of a house!) and also make suggestions on alternatives less expensive which would continue to operate.

    The laptop in question; http://www.morecomputers.com/extra.asp?PN=psafje-003003ks

    We are resident in the United Kingdom.

    Thank you very much

    Hey Buddy,

    In this case, you must contact an authorized service provider. Guys can order all spare parts Toshiba they will agree and will function properly. On the Toshiba site, you can find a list of them!

    On the LCD, you should choose an original. There are many different screen on the market and it is difficult to tell if another would work in your notebook.

    The HARD drive, you can buy everywhere. Just ask Google for some online stores where you can buy it. I have good experiences with Western Digital.

  • Satellite 1800-814-replacement ODD and HDD

    Hi all.

    I have a Toshiba satellite 1800-814, which has a dvd - rom SD-C2502 reader. This disc runs out of CD playback more every day. The question is: can I replace it for a clone dvd or dvd/rw cheap or should I stay with toshiba parts?

    And a second question. This laptop comes with a disc HITACHI DK23CA-20. What would be the largest size of HARD drive, that I couldn't go?

    Thank you.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    If you can get it on eBay the same drive, it will work with your laptop. Alternative check the user manual. You will find a list of compatible spare disks and don t forget that not all drives are compatible with all laptops. But the drives listed in the user manual are compatible.

    AFAIK for notebooks with IDE interface there is a limitation of LBA 28 bits. This means that you can use hard drives 120 GB.
    But in the worst case, you can use a 40/60 GB model.

  • Satellite Pro M30 replace DVD player - need repair

    Hello

    After a year since I bought my laptop, the optical drive started having problems reading most of my DVD discs, even those written with her self.

    Hello

    The replacement is not complicated and you don t need textbooks. The reader is fixed with a screw. You can find it in the bottom corner near the memory module cover. Remove it and turn off the player.

  • Drives CD DVD and external

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with my CD / DVD laptop. I have an error CODE 19. I tried all the suggestions form this forum and decided that the player may have rusted inside connection.

    I thought rather than to take it to repair and pay a lot of money, I would buy an external DVD drive and use instead.

    Any body know what type of player is good for my HP laptop with Vista operating system?

    Thank you in advance.

  • Slimline drive replacement DVD s5-1204

    I was disappointed to find that the standard DVD player doesn't have Lightscribe support. I saw in the guide of upgrade there are 3 cables to the DVD player. My old Lightscribe drive has only 2 cables (SATA and power). What is the third cable? Can I trade in my old drive without the third connection cable?

    HP slimline computers use a special CD/DVD player that has a third cable not found on standard disks. The three cables are power, data and ejection. You may be able to adapt a standard disc in the slot, but he won't go without cable to open/close eject when you press the eject button on the computer.

  • Project yet for DVD and Blu - ray?

    I'm new to Production Premium CS5. I did all my parts of my project and kept in HD and rendered in Media Encoder CS5 for blu - ray. I mounted my project in still and in preview then the disc blu - ray set to ensure that nothing has been left aside. Then I burned a DVD. After burning the DVD, my preview is more clear as clear HD. It's pixelated more like a DVD project. Is there a way to get the preview back to the overview of HD quality or do I copy the project again and rename it for a DVD project before burning my first one. The reason why I ask is I make two copies of the project still on my hard drive, a DVD and one for the Blu - ray and it works but the two doubles room on my hard drive. Any solution?

    Any solution?

    I recommend you to create two projects.  Do not change the parameters of a project.

  • Satellite P200-1 b 6: Sound Driver update fails, and HD-DVD player does not work

    I just bought a laptop Satellite P200-1 b 6 and spent the day installing the updates recommended by the TEMPO programme. One of them was an update of RealTek audio driver but on run this it fails at about 80% of the way through with an error: "install Realtek HD Audio Driver failure!

    Now, the reader of HD DVD, Toshiba will fail with an error "unable to output the video to an external device.

    Please change your display keys of the device by pressing the Fn + F5 after the end of the application "." I tried this but it seems to have no effect.

    I'm now regretting starting to update the drivers installed. Should I try to rebuild the machine using the recovery discs or is there another solution that someone found? Or if others have found the upgrade work?

    All advice welcome

    Hello

    When I started using PC, one of my friends told me something: do not touch the well-executed system. I know that you, like so many other people out there, have updated things but as you can see, it can go in the wrong direction.

    This TEMPO software is good, but if all goes well the leave it as it is. What you can try is to use the System Restore tool and move the BONES to earlier time and hope everything will be OK again.

    Please post the result.

  • Satellite L300 01:00 in WinXP-drive CD/DVD turns and stops alternately

    Hello
    I bought a new Satellite L300 01:00
    I installed Windows XP Home SP3 System (using nLite and driver of SATA Storage Manager) and all the drivers from the Web from Toshiba website.

    I have problem with CD/DVD drive (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N):
    -copy of CD/DVD on the HARD drive looks like follow: for some data of time (a few seconds up to several minutes) are the copy; then drive slows down and stops, the copy is stopped, progress bar doesn't move; After 1 minute for example the drive begins to spin and copy the next part of data. Sometimes the system stops to answer and it should reset the computer, sometimes computer restarts automatically.
    -listen to the audio CD music and watch DVD movies look like, it is easy to imagine...
    -uninstaling DVDRAM in Device Manager and reboot system helps a bit, i.e. the copy time becomes a little longer..., sometimes the problem occurs with the next CD/DVD in the drive
    AudioSilencer - don't change anything
    -write on CD/DVD is also impossible - progress bar stops after 1-2 minutes and nothing happens. Yellow led is always on and the shutdown process, you need to restart the system.

    What is interesting, drive works perfectly with the latest Debian LiveCD...

    Someone at - it ideas?
    Thanks in advance

  • Satellite Pro 1110 - replacing the CD/DVD drive

    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 5200 801: how to replace DVD burning drive?

    Hello
    A few days ago, I decided to replace my CD/DVD burning drive (burn DVD at 1 x) with a more faster and more modern.
    The problem is that, while turning on my laptop, it stops without any error message, as if she could not recognize the hard drive, so there is no professional Windows startup (problem of configuration master / slave?).
    I tried with two different burning drives and I also upgraded the BIOS of the laptop to version 1.40 (date 17/04/2003), but there was no result.
    Help me thanks
    Riccardo - Lecce - ITALY (South)

    You guessed it right,

    It's a question of master/slave/CS.
    Find out your old drive (firmware DI has something like 170) and try to locate the sense of them (current setting of M/S/CS) of it through the Internet on specific DVD player forums.

    Then determine WHAT type of disc, you will need to buy to make it work on your computer (or find the firmware suitable for do this... you'll need a different laptop that DOESN'T RECOGNIZE the DVD drive in the State, it is now).

    DVD Slimline portable computer readers usually do not come with a rider to make this adjustment (M/S/CS) on your own but are set with the internal firmware for this. There are other ways on how to get it to work (to force a shortcut on the back of the card), but I would not go for it if I were you.

  • Satellite 1000-Z2 CD/DVD drive has stopped working

    I had problems with the automatic eject button and have been doing it manually, and recently it was random when 'docking', so I reinserted, if not drive to work very well. Now he stopped to read the CD/DVD, and the entire computer freezes. Is it better to consider a repair shop or buy a new drive?

    Hello

    Generally, if the drive is dead only the drive replacement will solve the problems. I don t think that it is possible to repair the disk.
    But nevertheless, you must contact the service because there you can control compatible player. The problem is that not all readers are compatible with the device.
    The ASP from Toshiba have detailed information about the compatibility of the device and you can be sure that you will get a good player at 100%.
