• CD/DVD drive missing (vista)

  This problem is getting ridiculous.  My CD/DVD drive has been appearing and disappearing in recent weeks power on and off.  I tried the deleting the upper and lower limits registry hack and it seemed to work once, but after a while the disc disappears again, sometimes after the mode 'sleep' and sometimes spontaneously.  Reset used to clear up the problem for a while, but now the drive seems definitely over.  I uninstalled iTunes and Nero, I have because they may have caused problems.  I can't use Device Manager, because the device is not listed, so no way to update the drivers.  I am now at the point where there is much more information that I found Microsoft or from other sources, if anyone has had this problem or knows something, I can try to get Vista to recognize the drive that I would be really grateful.  Thank you!

  ===================================

  After the foregoing:

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  Hope these helps.

• CD/DVD-drive missing when Windows 7 is installed.

  I installed Win 7 32 bits, with a cd - everything works fine.
  But the CD/DVD drive is missing from Device Manager.

  I did a Win 7 clean install and have installed all the drivers for the hardware (all from the manufacturer). I tried some things I mentioned forums, like the one to delete data in the registry. This didn t solve the problem. I even tried to install win 7 again (tried 64 bit as well).

  Can anyone help?

  Solved!  I think so.  I had the same problem - installed Windows 7 on my Zepto 6625WD and Windows 7 could not recognize my TSST SN-S082H DVD player, although everything worked again well under ubuntu.  After several days of intermittent Googling, I came across this fix , which (even if it's for Vista) resolved my problems in Windows 7 - the DVD player is now detected and works perfectly.

  Hope that helps...

  WIN8.1 on this older machine? Not bad.

  Before we start the discussion can offer you please some basic info?
  ODD is in the BIOS settings and the Device Manager?

  Enter in BIOS, select this check box, set it to default settings, restart Windows.

• On Satellite A100 DVD drive is not accessible - i/o device error

  I have a Satellite A100 - 01 G, but the CD/DVD drive is not accessible when I try to open the files on a disc. When I try to run a disc I ge "the request cannot be performed an i/o device error.
  When I click on the drive icon it says that the application is not found.

  Hello

  Have you tried to update the CD/DVD drive?
  You could go to the Device Manager and could remove the reader of CD/DVD from the list of devices.
  Then, you must restart the laptop.
  After restarting again the Windows operating system will recognize the new device as the CD/DVD drive and will initialize and reinstall the driver.

  Then try using the new CD/DVD drive

• Satellite 2430 DVD drive problem

  Hello
  My Satellite 2430 has had a strange DVD problem and may not know what is all about. All started when I tried to make a full recovery. The unit was not able to boot from the DVD. I checked the DVD player with different bootable disk, but still nothing. Unit won't boot from DVD drive even if you press F12 and peripheral DVD selected. Not to mention that the recovery DVDs is loaded normally in my desktop pc. Notepad starts Windows OK the HARD disk and, which is incredible, is that, inside Windows, everything is OK. The DVD player works like a dream. However, it is not enough to perform a full restore, as the recovery process cannot be initialized by Windows. A leap that the BIOS is at the origin of the problem, I've upgraded to version 1.6, but there is no change in the behavior of the DVD.
  Any thoughts, before using a big-big hammer?

  Hello

  Have you tried to change the boot priority in the BIOS?
  If this isn't the case, then first change the startup procedure to the CD player. The local network must be on the end.

• Satellite A30 - ACPI driver missing

  Hello
  I have an old A30 that I just installed Win7 on. Everything is fine apart from a missing driver - unknown device ACPI

  In Device manager the hardware ID is ACPI\CMP0101

  Now this laptop fan lights not bad and she has a random problem to close without reason. I checked the fans and they are clear. In my view, that stops can be connected to this driver missing because it can control the temp/fans that stop it overheating, and then I could be wrong...

  I would appreciate any help and advice

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Are you sure that you want to use Windows 7 on this computer laptop oldie? In my opinion, you should be happy with a preinstalled OS to Toshiba. There are all the drivers and tools pre-installed and you don t have the stress with the driver installation. You can have fun with your laptop :)

  As you can see in another thread, you must reinstall Windows to solve this problem:

• Satellite R630 DVD drive is power off and cannot turn on again

  For the first time, I tried to use DVD drive to install software. However, I found that his power was turned off. I checked the manual, which suggests that the FN + TAB key to turn on. But nothing happened after that I indexed both keys. I don't know what to do now. Thanks for your suggestions!

  Hello

  It s really strange that FN + TAB combination of keys doesn t work I often use this key combination to power on/off of the DVD player and it has always worked

  In any case, have you checked if the CD/DVD drive is listed in Device Manager correctly?

  Usually, if some keys FN n t work you must reinstall Flash Cards Support utility and added value package. These two tools can be downloaded from the official website of Toshiba:

  I hope that it helps :)

• Equium A200 - DVD drive missing

  Hello

  My Equium A200 is only 3 months old and the dvd player has "disappeared."
  It does not appear in my computer or Device Manager.

  The tray will also not stay closed... any ideas anyone?

  Hello

  The fact is that the CD/DVD drive doesn t need a special driver because the STRANGE simply uses them pilot which belongs to the Windows operating system.

  I think you should check if the CD/DVD drive functions. So how can I test?
  Well, you can try to boot from the Toshiba restore CD to check if the ODD is able to manage the CD.

  I think that whole OS installation is a drastic procedure, but I think he might back allows for the STRANGE.

  Good luck

• Satellite - CD/DVD drive reads only CD

  I'm abit confused in this situation. My CD/DVD drive reads CDs but does not read the DVD. I don't know if I have to reinstall the driver for the CD/DVD or should be replaced.

  Please can someone help.

  Hello!

  There is no special driver first of all for the CD/DVD drive. The pilot is part of the operating system and should be updated or exchanged.

  I also put t know why the drive isn't reading DVD s more but have you tried to clean the lens of the drive? Therefore, you must use a microfibre cloth than zero of the lens doesn t and be careful!

  In addition, you can boot from a CD?

  Good bye
