Satellite M40X - big problems with Sims 3 - help with disk drives!

Hello
I recently bought the sims 3 and unfortunately an error message appears saying "Disk authentication failure" I noticed after calling EA games and reading through many forums that there was a problem evident with laptops Toshiba and their ability to play the sims 3 (disk DLA).
I did like the forums all recommended, and I have disabled the DLA drive, uninstalled the sims and restarted the computer. Not only could I not play the sims or re - install, but my computer did not recognize even the hard drive, he kept saying 'bad volume' etc.
I got the sims on the computer and then re-enabled the DLA drive, causing my computer to close and show a major error on a blue screen.

I then turned the computer back on, and it does not recognize the disc sims 3 more... It recognizes the other placed disks in the cd-rom drive... But now when I put the sims 3 in the player and enter my computer to open it it tells me to insert a disc into the cd player...

My questions are the following...

A.) how can I get my hard drive to recognize the disc sims being in the drive

(B) once this problem is solved, how can I go about installing and using the sims 3 without disabling the DLA, which proved detrimental drive.

(C.) other problems with computers laptop toshiba have turned around an individual driver... Metisha or something? My driver's - VOB COMPUTERSYSTEME GMHB
Or something to that effect, which means that it has nothing to do with the DLA drive.

For the person who can help me, that would be so so appreciated...

Thank you

This isn't a problem or issue of laptop but the Sims 3 game problem
It has been fixed in version 1.2.7

Maybe you need to download all the patches and updates the game for you!

  • Satellite M40X-184: problem with keyboard - only writes a character in 1 second

    Hello

    There is an interesting problem with my laptop, it cams with Xp Home edition with 1 partition, I used partition magic to create another and then format C:, after installation of XP Pro. Install drivers one by one, now when I try to write something in anywhere like msn, notepad or Word, she wrote just a character in 1 second;

    Like when I write "trial" he write in 5 seconds... Why what happened and above all how can I work this?

    Hello

    have you tried to uninstall the pilot how you installed? Maybe you should do this, I think it's probably just a software problem and no hardware failure.
    So you can also try to set the rate of your keyboard type in Control Panel-> keyboard control-> (delay repeat, repeat rate) and maybe it s just there a setting that needs to be corrected.

  • Satellite A500 / big problem with keyboard

    Hello everyone, first sorry for my English, I'm French!

    Anyway, since 2 days now my Satellite A500 has a big keyboard problem and I don't know how to fix it. I used it as usually, just cleaned each week arriving at work with a simple cloth and after starting my computer, when I started typing, I realized that the keyboard has disappeared as a "madman".

    Some keys are reversed, others like the space bar just doesn't work anymore, capslock button now unlock with the key has and another example, when I press D writes 'CD' and other stuff like that. It is simply impossible to type correctly. I'm running on Windows 7, I have the first test to look for any kinf of viruses, vain, so I formatted my hard drive, reinstalled Windows 7, then after I did the update to the Bios and now everything is clear and clean, but the keyboard problem is still there.

    The fact is that I have this laptop since August 2009 and my warranty no longer applies, so before I should send my computer to any computer repair store I want to know if it's really a problem of keyboard/equipment which can be fixed, "softwarely" or if there is always some kind of alternative for me.

    Thanks to all for your future responses.

    Hello

    Crazy keyboard?
    Hmm. Don t think that it s software or related bios looks more keyboard problem.
    You can try to plug an external USB keyboard to check if the problem would be also available
    If it s not available using the external USB keyboard, then it s internal problem of keyboard and the part needs to be replaced.

    Keyboard replacement is not difficult. The keyboard is secured by two or three screws that are hidden under the cover of thin plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons.
    Remove the plastic cover, remove the screws, lift the keyboard, disconnect the cable (notice, two tiny locks on the connector needs to be moved).
    Then, you would be able to remove the cable of the flat keyboard which is connected to the mobo.

    But if you have no experience, then you this replacement must be done by laptop computer technician.

  • Satellite A200-25Z: problem with display driver

    I am trying to install WIN XP on an A200 25Z. In the beginning, everything seemed to work fine, but now I constantly receive a blue screen before loading xp building saying something like memory issue on pilot ati2mtag.dll

    Sometimes it starts but then when I have to restart the next time it starts again...

    I reinstalled xp now several times, extend the bios to version xp but still the problem remains the same.

    Anyone else had a similar experience like this?

    Best

    > The problem is now, as a first step, that it seemed to work. But about two weeks later after I installed a game that at the next restart came with a blue screen. The game itself was no problem. Just on the next reboot. And since then all I try doesn't really help.

    It seems that the error with you graphic driver appears only after the installation of the game. To me, this looks like a compatibility issue with the graphics driver and the game installed.

    I noticed that some other series of laptops use the same Mobility Radeon X 2600 graphics card.
    So try to use the ATI page European Toshiba driver graphics driver:

    Hello

    I bought a game controller, it's called "Final Fantasy XIV". The appropriate driver is [this | http://www.snakebyte-europe.com/en/products/pc/final-fantasyR-xiv-controller/downloads/].
    I downloaded the driver and installed it, but whenever I tried and connected to the joystick, Windows told me that there was an "unknown device". Sometimes he showed the correct name, but after a little while he waited, he always says again that there is an "unknown device".

    I reinstalled the driver several times. I also deleted the INFCACHE and restarted the laptop to install the new driver, but I still get the same result, it does not work. Can someone help me with this?

    Thank you

    Have you contacted gamepad support and ask them what can be the problem?

  • Big problem with the D810 images

    I have a big problem with lightroom. He presents objects in images to avoid. An example is the following:

    Bildschirmfoto 2014-09-20 um 15.18.04.png

    The same image converted with Nikon ViewNX 2, does to 16 bit TIF and reimported into Lightroom is much better:

    Bildschirmfoto 2014-09-20 um 15.19.01.png

    Is there something I can do? Is there a problem with my settings? Is this a known on the side of lightroom problem? Will there be improvements corrections? This may be due to active d-lightning without knowing about this in lightroom?

    Thanks for any help and suggestions!

    There is a problem of Posterization with the camera matching profiles having Lightroom for the D810. This could well be her. As I know there is no update for those yet. Try a different camera such as Adobe Standard profile. If this resolves the Posterization that this question and you will have to wait for the next update of Lightroom to get updated profiles to update (I hope).

    > This can be caused by active d-lightning without knowing about this in lightroom?

    No, but it is advisable not to use all modes like this in camera when you use Lightroom or any other software gross non-Nikon because all that camera RAW isn't to underexpose it and save a statement to apply treatment HDR with Nikon raw software. Other software will not be able to read as the statement and it will make images appear underexposed because they are in reality.

  • Big problem with Windows XP, IE8

    I have a big problem with windows xp. Many things do not work as they had passed him. For example the personal setting are not recalled from session to session. IE 8 does not funtion properly (icons on the desktop are re-arraged, toolbars cannot be deleted or I'm unable to load pages from the internet). Programs do not work, the files will not open. When I look at my hard C disk folders and files are hidden.

    Recently, IE has been upgraded to IE8 and I installed Norton 360 but I don't mean that they caused the problem. However, whenever the Norton scan executes a "error 8 506 421" stands up and says me that I have to uninstall and re install Norton.» But I lost the ADMIN privileges so I am not able to uninstall or go back to a restore point.

    I can't go in safe mode. Pressing F8 takes me to the quick screen C not the windows safe mode screen. I can't go in safe BOOT mode. INI or the other.

    If I switch to another user, everything seems fine but I don't have ADMIN privileges with this user to be able to make changes.

    Is this a problem with norton? IE8? A virus?

    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Lost without a computer

    It sounds like you have a corrupted for your user to administrator user profile.

    You may be able to recover using System Restore to restore to a point in time before your problem.  Based on the F8 key, you bring in a command prompt window, try to start restoring the system to the command prompt by using the following procedure:

    "How to start the System Restore tool by using the option of safe mode with prompt theCommand in Windows XP"

    <>https://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304449/en-us >

    If this does not work, you can still be able to recover by performing a check disk to your command prompt window operation (after that you press the F8 key).  Enter the following command:

    CHKDSK c: /R

    If you are in the Recovery Console, it can simply begin, or you may need to restart before it will start.  Corrupt profiles are most often caused by the Corruption of system files, so a chkdsk operation should be performed little matter how you end up recovery.  Note that this can take a few hours to run.

  • Adobe Muse - big problems with SEO/metadata?

    Hello

    I just finished mysite using muse adobe but I have big problems with the metadata tool, basically, it does not work.

    I can't find my site anywhere on google except if I type in the domain itself, despite the fact that I inserted a full description and several key words.  When it seems that the description is not what it is supposed to be. Rather than taking the actual description, it must be just a paragraph of my site.

    Metadata Adobe Muse option actually works? Anyone who has used with success. Seems to be a major flaw in the product Adobe Muse.

    While Muse inserts metadata into your page correctly, search engines do rely not 100% on this subject. You can add semantic properties to your pages by creating paragraph styles, applying, and then choosing the tag type in the paragraph style options. You can add h1, h2 and so on, for example.
