Satellite Pro M10: Cannot install SD-C2612 - device IDE hdc unknown

Hello.

My CD/DVD-Rom device (toshiba SD-C2612) stopped working - it was still registered as a player, but would not read disks - so I got a replacement and not at all settled.

I also noticed that in device - under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers Manager - there is an "unknown device" which is called "hdc" (hard disk controller?) who doesn't have a driver installed and can not find new drivers when I update. I disabled the device and who have stopped the old cd/dvd rom recognized and when I reboot it reinstalls the hdc, but it's still the record as an unknown device.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Hello

It seems that you have purchased an internal drive is not compatible.
It should know that the drive as master/slave or c - salt settings are fix and it of not possible to change it as on external drives by switching the jumper.

That is why it s always a good idea to ask the laptop manufacture support for a good disks before you buy a.
I found in my user manual for the list of compatible drives for my laptop. Maybe it s the same list in you user manual.
There you should find the readers supported.

  • Satellite Pro M10: Cannot get a resolution of 1680 x 1050 px

    Hello

    Recently I have bougth a screen Dell 2005FPW with a native resolution of 1680 x 1050.
    With the standarddrivers of the geforce4 420 go in my satellite pro m10, I can't get this resolution (max 1280 x 1024).
    How can I solve this problem and work to the full capacity of my screen?

    Hello Jorré

    Sorry, but I don't see any problem. The fact is that there is a restriction of the graphics card and if the max resolution is 1280 x 1024 you cannot set upward for external LCD.

    Maybe you can try with something like this http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Viewsonic/VTBOOK/

  • Satellite Pro M10 cannot start properly - AC LED flashing orange

    Hello

    I have a weird problem that I can't solve.

    (1) when my Satellite Pro M10 the plugged AC adapter and the battery, the AC led is green and battery led is orange.
    (2) when I try to turn it on, several times it not light and the dissepear of leds for 1 or 2 seconds and my AC led flashes orange. Sometimes it lights up as it should be.
    _________
    When this problem occurs, it will take a lot of time before it turns normally. I searched the internet for a solution, but I couldn't find one.

    I already removed the battery and try to turn it on, but it does not solve the problem. Or when I remove the AC adapter and try to start it on the battery itself.

    I also removed the two of them and you press the button power on for 60 seconds. After that, it will sometimes start with mains or battery adapter.

    My bios is updated to the latest version. (I've done this when he started only five minutes ago, but the problem is not resolved). I also believe that when the m10 is enabled and when I close it, it crashes also.

    Do anyone know how to solve the poblem? Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    These problems are very rare and shouldn't t happen if hardware or software is ok.
    Power LED blinking orange means there could be a hardware malfunction.
    It is a code flashing microphone and a technician can be read.
    This code must be translated into the hexadecimal digit.

    But for ordinary users it s not able to know what it means. In my opinion a power electronic malfunctions and must be verified by an ASP.

    Hi all

    I got a Satellite Pro L500 Windows 7 pro with disk created from computers, cell phones, but now cannot install a Realtek LAN driver for the laptop.

    The installation of the driver software program doesn't seem to work properly all the time, tried several times to install with only once a realtek 'repair' option becomes available.
    When I managed to install the driver I got an error "the device couldn't start. After restoring I also had problems with a "controller driver simple communication PCL.
    which seems to have been an Intel MEI according to the SAT, DEV info displayed in the information systems.

    If these problems are linked and how to install the driver required in an automated system if the system does not correctly detects hardware?

  • Satellite Pro A120 - cannot install recovery disc

    Hi - I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 PSAC1E-04H00VEN model number

    It was less his hard drive and I posted previously to try a 160 GB drive without success. I thought that the drive may be defective, so I have now acquired a 120 GB drive. It is not new, but assured me that it works. However, it does not work in this laptop! As before (with the disk 160), when I try to install it using the Toshiba restore disc, the operation just sticks on the "Please wait..." message. "for 30 minutes then the machine shuts down. Assuming that the hard drive is ok there at - it something more, that I can do to determine the problem with this laptop?

    FYI, this is what happens after installing the hard drive:
    I turn it on and get this message: NTLDR is missing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart.
    I insert the product recovery disc, put off and then again when you press F12.
    I get a soft Purring over the Toshiba logo. I select the CD/DVD symbol and get a short message saying: the installer inspects the hardware configuration of your computer.
    I then get RAMDISK image loading... which takes less than 2 minutes.
    I then get a short message saying: from Windows Preinstallation Environment. Press F6 if you need to install a third-party RAID or SCSI driver...
    I then get it please wait... and after 10 seconds, the fan goes into overdrive! This Carry on during 30 minutes with him please wait... message, then the laptop turns off automatically.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Thank you.

    Hi Lapitup,

    Before you buy another HARD drive, you need to test a different installation disk you have already tried the two hard disks with the same problem so I think that the problem is not HARD drive itself

    If you have a normal installation disc of Windows, you can install Windows on this drive. So you can check if the recovery disk works properly or not. Theoretically, the disc could be wiped off so that the files cannot be read properly.

    In the worst cases, some of the material is affected. Then, you need professional help of an authorized service provider.

  • Satellite Pro L300D: Cannot install because of the common Modules control utility

    Hi guys,.

    I'm new to this forum, but I spent two days looking around.
    I have a sat Pro L300D that I'm downgrading to XP, because many are, and I can't get the touchpad to work or function buttons.

    One problem seems to be to install the utility 'controls', which gives the message "common modules" not installed even though it was the first pilot, I have installed.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    OK, here we go.
    Toshiba pilot European page doesn't provide drivers XP ALL, tools or utilities for the Satellite Pro L300D.
    Is this good? I checked the page and there are no. XP applications.

    So I came to the conclusion that the common Modules cannot be installed because this software was not designed for this series of portable and therefore, you receive this error message.
    It is clear!

    So Don t wonder what impossible to install "utility controls" or common modules. These pieces of software are not compatible

    Hi Peter,.

    Try you to an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If Yes, please try a new and clean Windows 7 installation. It work?

    In your case, I would try to remove the drive from Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After that the drive will be recognized automatically.

  • Satellite Pro L510 - cannot install and start Intel Link 5100

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro L510 (P / N:PSLFML - 002004). Recently, I upgraded my Intel WIFI Link 5100 (my original WLAN is Realtek RTL8191SE). I tried Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit with intel driver, version 13.4 and 13.5, non of them worked so far. I always get this error 'this device cannot start' in Device Manager

    Can someone help me with this problem please?

    Duy

    Hello

    May I ask why you switched the WLAN card? Something was wrong with your old WLAN or why you did that?

    The WLAN feature was working before the upgrade?

    I can say with certainty why you get this message error, but to me it seems that the WLAN card is not activated, you permit wireless network adapter using the FN + F8 key combination?

  • Satellite Pro P200: Cannot install Server 2003 - parity memory error

    I have a Satellite Pro P200 and to the work required to install Windows 2003 server on it, but all I get is an error message:

    -Hardware malfunction

    Call your provider of support material

    NMI: Parity check / memory parity error

    -The system is shut down

    I checked the memory and everything seems OK. Vista runs very well on it, and all memory is recognized. I tried different flavors of Server 2003, although all I need is standard edition. Anyone who has met this problem, or someone has any suspicion as to how I can get it operational.

    So, how tested the RAM? With Memtest? Or Prime95?

    I read in many forums that people work servers (no laptop...) SERVERS) that correctly work 1 year with ECC memory, then windows 2003 server gives the same error message you have.

    I mean if Vista works flawlessly and you checked as you say the RAM while there could be a mismatch which must not be for lack of toshibas.
    Maybe you should try a linux ubuntu server edition, which works great on almost * ALL * systems, even on systems with faulty CPU/memory (Ok, ok, not 100%, but it works, I got this case :))

    So, maybe you can try to exchange the RAM, but if you're still the same error then ask microsoft or try another P200, if they are available.

    Sorry dude, but I Don t have a lot of ideas in your situation :/

  • Satellite Pro U400 - cannot install VAP on Vista 64-bit

    Hello
    Since I bought 4GB of RAM for my Satellite Pro U400 PSU45E, I installed vista Business 64-bit, with all drivers and bios 64 bit found on the toshiba site.
    easy, with the exception of the "value added package 1.1.19", whenever I try to install I get: error "failure of GetProfString."

    I installed every driver and utility for 64-bit, but still the same...
    Everyone has experienced with this?

    Without VAP, I can't use the Toshiba power saver, worst profiles I can't go back because I did a new install and deleted the recovery partition!
    Please, someone help!

    Hello

    VAP contains all the modules necessary and you n t need to install other tools in order to install VAP
    I think that it s a Vista may issue you should do a clean install, then you must update the Vista for the last State.
    After have installed all the patches Vista, try to install VAP and other tools.
