• Satellite P25-S520 - DVD player does not work properly

  Difficulty of DVD player or buy the external drive

  My DVD player does not work properly, in fact it can never work properly. Recently, I tried to back up my PC on a DVD using Norton 360. Norton did not recognize that the DVD was present. Then I tried to write a text file on a DVD and was a failure. DVD + R and DVD-R media were found to be (Maxwell 16 X).

  I could have probably lived with this however, I received a copy of Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10 on a CD and my Toshiba would not recognize it. I tried the CD in my laptop nearby and it was recognized.

  An attempt to update the driver has also fails.

  I was able to copy a CD of music last night so that at least works properly.

  Does anyone know how can I fix? The important part is to be able to load my new program.

  Research on some forums I found that other people have had problems with the Pioneer drive. If the drive can't be fixed, I'm not adverse to buying an external DVD drive. Unfortunately, where I live there is no brick and mortar stores selling external drives and I prefer to avoid the hassle of getting a drive online and discovering that it does not work with my Toshiba. Can someone suggest an external USB drive that will read and write CD and DVD and is certain to be compatible with my Toshiba?

  Thanks for any help,

  Any external USB CD/DVD drive will be compatible with your laptop.

  However, you won't be able to boot from CD (run recovery for example) If you are using an external drive.

  So, your best option would be to replace the internal drive with a Toshiba drive designed for the laptop. Call an ASP and request a quote.

• Satellite A100-447 - DVD player does not read some discs

  Hello

  I have a 4 month old Satellite 100-447 (PSAAN), came preloaded with Vista Home Premium and a carpet * CD/DVD super-multi UJ-850 s player.

  The DVD player does not work properly. It will recognize a few blank, but never DVD-R DVD and won't recognise any DVD at all serious. He is very good with CD and DVD movie discs. It's just recordable DVD where there is a problem.

  Also when you try to write to a DVD, when he chooses to recognize a TI-error in half way through.

  What can I do?

  Thanks for your help.

  Hello

  You can do the follwowing:

  Go to this website http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp,

  Download the latest update of the firmware for this drive, install it, and then try again.

  Sometimes, the manufacturer must update their readers for the newer recordable media and so I think that it is possible that your drive is simply not up to date.

• DVD player does not accept disks

  My '' integrated '' DVD player does not read the disc (DVD, BluRay, any region code), but it ejects after a small delay of about 1 to 2 minutes.  Is there a diagnostic software to find the problem?

  Your Super Drive never read blu ray and probably did not. Try a cleaning disc. Try resetting the memory NVRAM How to reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support and SMC reset management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

  Finally buy and inexpensive external optical drive, but not apples Super USB drive because it does not work with your Mac.

• Satellite L300D-11V - DVD player does not work

  Hello

  I am a Satellite L300D-11V and the driver on the CD does not work. I think is not the right driver and an update of Windows could have messed up.
  Anyone know where I can download the correct driver for the DVD player for Vista? Or solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Mounira.

  Hello!

  I put t understand why you need a CD/DVD driver or tell you the driver does not work.

  The CD/DVD driver for the reader is part of Windows. You don't need one and should not install a new or something else. When you have problems with the drive, it s not the driver, it s another issue.

  Now have yellow marks in the Device Manager and can use the drive? On the right, a right click on the drive and select uninstall. Restart your laptop, and the driver should be installed automatically.

  Good bye

• Satellite P10 - 554 dvd - ram does not work

  I got a Satellite P10 554, and as I said above the RAM does not work.
  It should be a software problem, because if I reinstall the drivers it works a few minutes (it did until now yesterday it stopped completely)
  It is impossible to install the new drivers or update a firmware somehow
  (pilot: after rebooting, the old drivers are loaded again (but I uninstalled them))
  (firmware update: I still got the message: invalid drive to update f/w)

  I hope that someone of you can help me ;)

  Hello

  What did you mean with the work of t car doesn?
  You are not able to burn or read the media?

  The error message says it all. I think you re not able to update the firmware because the firmware is not supported on this drive.

  Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then shut down the laptop.
  Usually after restarting again the operating system should recognize the drive again.
  If this does not help, you can try to remove the drive from the laptop. Turn on the unit, then go into windows. The reader should disappear. Then stop and reset the drive in the notebook. After this procedure the laptop must load the firmware again.

  It will be useful.

• On the Satellite L650-12Z DVD player does not work

  (this is posted on the US forums who sent me here)

  Hello.

  I have a bit of a problem with my portable DVD player. If I put a DVD in there, he turns and runs for 2 minutes, but he made nothing read (read: I do not hear the lens engine).

  Now, in this age of digital distribution, it is less a problem then it used to be, but it is still a bit boring.
  It is also not a question relating to the OS because when I try to boot from a DVD of Windows 7 it also does not work.

  It is out of warranty, so I can't send it to cost me money.

  Thanks in advance.

  It looks like a hardware problem of the optic disc.
  In some cases it is only a matter of laser lenses, could you fix this by cleaning up that part.

  I cleaned the lens laser alcohol or cotton tip.
  Some people recommended this and in my case it helped also.

  Of course, this could be a solution only in case your laser lens is dirty.

  Hello

  Want to watch a DVD on the external monitor? Or can you explain what you mean with external device?
  Maybe the application should be reinstalled. You can download it on the Toshiba site.

  I don t use a Toshiba DVD player so I think that I can help you, but I use VLC media player to watch DVD s. It of a small video player that can play most audio and video files. It s really nice tool and freeware. You should try it too! ;)

• Satellite L30 VISTA - DVD player does not empty and clean recorded DVD

  DVD - RW 4 x discs ignored. When I try to 'burn' of ULead DVD Movie Factory or play a previously "burned" DVD made on my old model Qosmio, the DVD tray opens (with the disk in it) and with the message "Please insert disc". If the tray closes with the same disc always in it, it does exactly the same thing again.

  Product Commercilly DVD is most recognized and played. This problem exists since the laptop was purchased. Would appreciate any help.

  If this problem existed on the first day, why did you wait so long and not tried to resolve as soon as possible?

  I recommend you to install the Nero trial version and check the functionality of engraving. Try please to create CDs or DVDs burning data or maybe some movies on DVD. Test these media. If you report about the same so I can believe that there is a serious problem.

  One last thing. Try to start with recovery media. Please let me know if the recovery procedure starts correctly.

• Satellite U300: Toshiba DVD player does not work properly

  Hello, yesterday I downloaded a new driver for Toshiba DVD player (only had the laptop a week or two).

  Now when I try to play a DVD it tells me "unable to output the video to an external device. Please change your display device by pressing the Fn + F5 keys after the end of the application"

  Now, I closed the dvd and then did as he said with the Fn + F5 keys, but this seems to get me nowhere. It appears the laptop and the lcd screen icons are highlighted.

  Any suggestions please?

  Hi mate,

  It seems that the pilot has some sort of problems. What you might try is to restore the system to a previous restore point.
  With luck, you could play your DVD´s again with the player from Toshiba, but I suggest you wait for the next update, maybe they will fix this problem.

  You can also use the "VideoLan" drive which is freeware and probably one of the best available players that can play almost all formats. If you want to try the drive, then just go here-> www.videolan.org/

  Otherwise, you can perform a restore, use the Toshiba DVD player and wait until toshiba released a new update that works...

• Satellite A30-404: DVD player does not read some DVD

  Hello

  I have a satellite A30-404, and recently, I installed a new firmware update for my TOSHIBA DVD - ROM SD-R6112. (page can be found [here | http://nl.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?service=NL&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 153 & selProduct = 518 & langua ge = 33 & selOS = 10 & selType = all & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = 28 & selectedLanguage = 33 & type = all & page = 1 & ID = 46804 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42])

  Since then, I can't play some DVD I write, for the most part, the 4 GB DVD +, for example, I can perfectly read a 1, 3 GB DVD with 3 multisessions.

  However, other computers can read the DVD I can't.

  Help would be appreciated.

  Maybe the new firmware does contain all of the information on the DVD.
  Do you know what firmware is or what information it contains?

  The firmware of the drive contains simple information about the support that can be used, what burning/reading speed is supported, which average manufacturer is compatible, etc.

  Maybe the new firmware contains other information such as and therefore CD/DVD cannot be played correctly.
  I think in this case, you need to test different CDs/DVDs and try to burn at a different rate.

• Satellite A500 - video/dvd player is not compatible with Windows 10

  After having recently updated of my laptop for windows 10 I discovered that the dvd player does not work. A message is displayed informing that the player is not compatible with this version of windows. A scan using Norton suggests dvd will not work because it needs to be configured.

  Does anyone else have this problem?

  Obviously, Toshiba DVD playback application that is preinstalled on this Satellite A500 model is not compatible with the system Windows 10.

  In this case this software will not properly work after the upgrade to win 10 and I guess you have to remove the system Win 10.

  Unfortunately, the Satellite A500 is not listed as Win 10 portable computers and so I don't think you will get an update to this software for DVD playback.

  Here is a list of models supported for upgrading to Windows 10

• A DVD player is not detected (for Windows)

  Windows repeat me that "a DVD player is not detected," even if there is a DVD player installed in my computer by the manufacturer.  I pushed it completely with my thumb to make sure that it is not disconnected from its moorings of connection.  The little green light on the door of the reader flashes once every second about. It did not used to do this when the DVD used to work perfectly. The driver up to date.  But my DVD still does NOT appear on my device manager page. What could be the problem? How should I do?
