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.

  • 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 2430: CD/DVD drive does not work - i/o error

    Hello all Toshiba people.i have recently bought a Toshiba Satellite 2430 for a very good price. One thing the carpet * a DVD - ram Uj - 810 drive does not work when I put in any type of cd or dvd, I get this error
    F:\ is not accessible.
    The request could not be performed because of an i/o error.

    I talked to my local computer Wizz and does everything that he suggested to the letter and still the same problem. He suggested updating the bios drivers and the only way to do that is on a disk drive that she cannot take the an or a CD or dvd drive is not working. Can you please help me!

    Begging you a lot
    Michael Borger

    In my view BIOS update will not change.
    I assume that the reader has worked in the past with the same BIOS version
    It is a drive hardware problem or some registry keys are corrupt.

    I think that it s a hardware malfunction may be a matter of lenses.
    But try this;
    Remove the drive from Device Manager and shut the laptop computer. After restarting again the operating system should recognize the drive again. Then you can check the functionality.

    Otherwise, you can remove the disk from the laptop, and then start the laptop without the drive. Then stop the laptop, put the drive in the notebook and start over.
    The firmware should again loads.

    But if these procedures help t, I don t see it differently as for replace the drive

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Satellite Pro 6000 - new RAM does not work

    Hi all

    New to this forum sorry if this was asked before, I did a search but could not find anything so here goes.

    I just bought a new RAM for my Satellite Pro 6000. When I install it nothing happens the laptop won't boot. If I put the old stick in no problem. The ram I bought is unb 512 MB PC133 CL3 and old RAM 256 MB PC133s. I think little small to read with these old eyes.

    I was told I might need an update of the BIOS but cannot find one for my laptop under 1.4 for the moment.
    Any help would be thank Lindsey

    I think that the new RAM is not compatible with the motherboard or laptop.

    The manufacturing of the new RAM you said does not for me so I would buy an another RAM, such as Kingston. Kingston makes high quality RAM and many users here buy Kingston RAM to upgrade its RAM.

    By the way: do you use the RAM or only the new? Normally, if you use two memory modules live, you must use it with the same specifications.

    The update of the BIOS, you can find the Toshiba site, but this doesn t affect the compatibility of Aries.

  • The satellite A65-S1063 DVD drive does not work with this type of disc

    Hello world
    have a strange problem - my combo does not read dvd - r of a box.

The most funny thing is that when I check the discs on other computers, everything is fine with them. Any ideas?

  • 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...

    To be honest I n don't know 100% what your problem is.
    If you want to watch DVD movies on your computer with the help of a reader DVD Toshiba but the captain must be indicated on the external screen follow these steps:

    When you have connected the HDMI cable (other) outside on the screen, use FN + F5 and switch to the external display only. When you see the desktop on the beginning of the display external Toshiba DVD player and I think that everything should be OK.

  • Satellite L500 - 1CQ PSLS0E - CD/DVD drive does not work - driver problem?

    Hello

    My DVD player does not work.

    There is power to it. The engine turns when I eject and reinsert. Troubleshooting Control Panel for the equipment and devices said it is a driver problem, but cannot fix it. Problem with the driver.

    I reinstalled it from the Toshiba site.
    It records in the right place?
    I am Windows 7 64 bit and chose the right driver for it.

    Should I use the 64-bit?
    I have 3 MB of RAM which was the spec when bought.

    If I wanted to change to 32 bit how you take you without the CD/DVD drive?
    Is there any point in doing this?

    Thank you

    Hello

    To be honest I m a bit confused.
    You are not able to boot from THE disks; Windows disk, disk recovery, disk Linux?

    If it of the case, then it means that your CD/DVD drive is faulty.
    Why? Because the CD/DVD drive is recognized and controlled by the BIOS when booting from CD or DVD.

    When the Windows operating system has started, the CD/DVD drive must use the Microsoft common driver which is part of the Windows operating system.
    This means that you n t need to install ALL the drivers in order to get the job of CD/DVD.

    If you can boot from any disk, but if the CD/DVD drive is not recognized by MY computer, then I recommend this:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us

    Before you remove the upper and lower registry filters, remove the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager and then go into the registry and remove the filters. Restart the unit.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A200 - 19L: no sound after hibernation & CD/DVD drive does not work

    First of all, my laptop computer became very slow loading vista after formula 1 week to buy it.

    Second, sometimes when I put the mode 'sleep' a revival of the laptop, there is no sound and a red circle appears over the speaker icon in the bar of tasks, and when I go into control panel > Sound, he tells me that no. his drive was installed and when restarting the laptop the problem resolved?

    Thirdly, after the formula of the week 3 buy the computer also dvd - cd player has the same problem, like the sound and when you open my computer that NO cd\dvd drive icon and when I put a cd or dvd, it does not work or run and it happens all the time, even if the laptop restarts.

    Since then im able to watch movies or work.

    I'm lost and I don't know what to do!

    Hey Osama

    I think I can help you. The questions that appear on your laptop are not serious and the only one associated with software or registry.

    Regarding your noise problem:
    Please check this Microsoft document
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929685/en-us
    or
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/937077/

    the MS update must be downloaded and installed ;)

    Regarding the missing CD/DVD drive;
    I think you should try to remove the drive from Device Manager and reboot the laptop. Then the operating system should recognize the STRANGE again.
    Secondly you should access the registry editor and should remove the upper filter and bring back the key filter
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
