Satellite Pro A100 (PSAACE) CD-ROM does not

Computer: Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 (PSAACE)
Age: 1 year
Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP SP2
CD-ROM: Pioneer DVD - RW DVR-K16A

Whenever I put a cd in the rom it makes a series of strange noises, hard to explain, but this isn't really mather.

At the end of the day, I take the cd see nothing hapends don't never no mather how long I wait.
No error apears but it never had to read the cd.

I tried a long list of solutions:
Pilot Uppdate
Reset dma tool
Uninstall and reinstall

Have you tried the method with the disassembly of the upper and lower of certain registry entries filters? If this is not the case, here's the quick tutorial:

Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.
Then start the registry (regedit) and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

Have you tried if you can boot from the CD?
If you can, try to reinstall your Windows XP and see if problem persists.

  • Satellite Pro A100: CD/DVD player will not play the audio CD or video DVD

    People,
    I have a Satellite Pro A100, with a RUG * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841 S Drive.
    It will read fine data disks, but refuses to play with the audio CD or video DVD.

    I tried to uninstall & Re-Installing DVD - RAM Driver;
    That got rid of the "IO error" that I received, unfortunately I don't notice the full error: S.
    He now just doesn't see the drive. Someone at - it ideas?

    I did a full windows update, and the Toshiba Diagnostic util tell me anything useful except "Fail" :(

    I found a thread in this forum that describes a similar theme:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19747&MessageID=72404

    Sometimes this error is displayed because the player does not support the environment.
    Always it is every way is supported by readers and I think that in the user manual, you will find an index CDs or DVDs compatible

    Maybe the drive is defective and can not calibrate lens in the right position.
    But this laptop is not very old, and I can't imagine that the drive is defective
    However, nothing is impossible.

    What you can do is to carefully clean the lens and see that it will help.

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

  • Satellite Pro C50-A-153 - Touchpad does not work properly

    First, sorry for my bad English.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C50-A-153, the problem is its touchpad and not work correctly, the mouse does not move when I move the finger on the pad, it seems that if I had to roll the bar "or the mouse wheel.

    Sometimes, the 'mouse' works for 20 seconds and then again the same thing. An external mouse works fine.

    It is not the problem of the functions "Fn". I tried to stop, reset the battery and press the power button to 50seconds. I also tried to uninstall the drivers for the Touchpad, and I think that I tried to change all the properties on the 'Control Panel - mouse'.

    Can someone help me with this?

    Thank you.

    On most computers laptop Toshiba is installed the Synaptics touchpad driver. With this driver, there are available additional touchpad settings. Try it please change these settings and turn off the features you don't need.

  • Satellite Pro P300 - output HDMI port does not

    Hi all

    Well it starts to drive me to distraction and Im hoping that theres someone who can put me out of my missery lol.

    I tried to connect my laptop (toshiba satellite pro p300) up to my LCD TV via the same HDMI cable that I use for my PS3 but the connector does not simply. I keep finding all these messages in various forums saying how they can't get the HDMI connection... that would be great, at least, this means that they were connected.

    Are there different links for the HDMI? The one I have is diagonal connector but the port on the laptop is more square and just doesn't fit. So, if it is not a connector, does that mean I have a funky port on the laptop.

    There is also the issue of connecting my laptop to my amp which controls the surround sound system. Which link is best to use, as there is no real connections audio output?

    See you soon

    Hello

    Can you please tell us what Satellite Pro P300 you have exactly? I mean the exact model number.
    Maybe you can also post a picture of the HDMI port. Normally there is no different HDMI port, all have the same physical size.
    I m PS3 not owner, but maybe he has a special connector. Have you tried another cable?

    Regarding the audio connection I use the normal line of output port to my external speakers. Have you tested this?

  • Re: Satellite Pro A60 - PCMCIA WLAN card does not question CardBus

    I received an A60 to upgrade for a friend and one of the necessary things is a wireless card.

    I got a 32-bit cardbus card but when I insert into the laptop, nothing happens. XP does not recognize, the oo lights do not come on the map.
    First I thought it was a faulty card but I tried other cards and get the same results and I reinstalled XP and all the drivers but nothing.

    I've seen other messages on the change of the mode in the BIOS, but there is no mention of the CardBus in the BIOS.
    The laptop uses the BIOS version 1.9. I just want to check is there something escapes me or the CardBus location just does not work?

    Hello

    Satellite Pro A60 was equipped with the 32-bit and 16-bit PCMCIA slot that supports PCMCIA card * Type-II * only!

    Have you used the * PCMCIA Type-II card?

    Perhaps you have used is not compatible PCMCIA card, you should check this first!

  • Satellite Pro U200: My safe file does not open

    Hello
    Running XP Pro on a computer Satellite Pro U200, I have installed Norton Ghost 10 (after a lot of difficulties that I had to uninstall Norton anti-siphoning I've ever used on the machine).

    Subsequently the 'My Safe' folder does not open. Normally when double clicking it asks a fingerprint or a backup password but now it shows just an hourglass for a millisecond and then's there!

    Can anyone tell what he might have to get this service running the settings?
    Best regards, Robert

    Hey Buddy,

    may I ask what 'secure record' this is? This file has been accidentally created by Norton Protection System?
    So you have this fingerprint software which manages your fingerprint and your access in the system, etc., etc... ; have you checked if something in this software changed?
    A trial might reconfigure these programs.

  • Satellite Pro L500-1 t 5 - does not recognize battery

    My new Ii received only today) computer laptop Satellite Pro L500 does not recognize the battery. I can't turn it on without AC. When the AC is turned on, the battery LED lights up orange for 20-30 seconds and then turns off, and Windows 7 says, that there is no battery.

    I read on this forum, that I can put my battery in, while the windows is already happening and I tried, he founded the battery for 20-30 seconds and starts to load, but that she doesn't even once is not the battery. I checked the BIOS version, 1.90. It's a more later, as I understand it, isn't?

    What can I do with it? It's hardware problems and I should post in the service or can I fix it somehow?

    Hi Ponny,

    What happens if you leave the AC adapter plugged in for 24 hours or overnight and then you start the laptop without an AC/DC adapter? On the first charge, it takes a little longer until the battery is fully charged.

    If that doesn t work, you need to contact the store where you bought it or authorized service provider. In this case, you should get a new battery free.

  • Re: Satellite Pro L300-EZ1523 - FN + F8 does not

    Hello

    I have the Toshiba Satellite Pro L300-EZ1523 on win xp pro os, I installed all necessary drivers, including the hotkey utility, all work perfect, but funtion FN + F8 switch wi - fi does not.
    How cen be the problem? What is some difficulty for whom?

    Kind regards!

    Obviously missing something. To work well the FN feature, you must install all the necessary stuff from Toshiba. Most important for utilities and tools Toshiba is common modules. Is is kind of basic application and all others must be installed later.

    Make sure that you have installed the utilities and Toshiba hotkey utility. I don't know how you installed everything it and what facilities order you used but please check again all the specific tools of this Toshiba.
