Satellite Pro M70 does not read the DVD of some manufacturers

Recently, my Satellite Pro M70 stopped reading some DVDs, specifically verbatim...
When I put in, it is just to see any disk. If I put the same disk into any other computer, even my friends Toshiba Satellite Pro M70 - than mine, even it reads normally.

Any ideas?

WEIRD laser could be at fault, or it is maybe dirty. Try to clean the lens with a Microfiber cloth.

  • My laptop does not read the dvd, but another laptop computer bed. PL advise solution. Thank you

    My laptop is Pressario V2000. My laptop does not read the dvd, but another laptop reads the same dvd. PL is the solution. Thank you

    Try another DVD to verify that your laptop can read at least the other DVD.  If he can't play other DVD's then you need to replace the DVD - CD ROM drive supplied with your Pressario.

    Another thing you can try is to check fingerprints or scratches on the DVD, some DVD players are more sensitive than others.

  • Satellite Pro A60 does not recognize the accept/DVDs blank

    My computer will not accept blank CD - R disc so I can burn data on them, but my computer will not accept blank DVD discs that I want to be able to use to store more data.

    In the drive of my computer D reads "DVD - RW", I guess so, but am not sure that this means that my pc should be usable with DVD-R and DVD - RW discs but it do not accepts / acknowledges these when I put a try to burn something on them.

    My computer also does not accept / recognize DVD + R Virgin discs as I have tried those, just in case they might work.

    Help please!

    Hello

    Have you also tried to burn DVD-R discs?
    I had also some problems with DVD + R discs, so I changed to a DVD-R and since all works well! :)

    I don't use Windows Media Player to burn discs, I use CD Burner XP. It is a freeware tool, very small and fast. It works on most versions of Windows, and you should try it too!

    Also check the Toshiba page for an update of the firmware!

    By pressing the power on button laptops "wake up" and indicate that the battery is empty or may not even decide when completely loaded, then says connect the station even if still connected, looking under Toshiba console when it runs shows running on battery when still in the power of the ext?

    Hello

    Is your AC adapter malfunctions or there is something wrong with the power supply to electronic s laptop.
    In the first case you could purchase a new compatible AC adapter and could check if the laptop can run successfully.
    The second possibility is a serious hardware problem, but in this case, the laptop must be checked by an authorized technician.

  • Re: Satellite A200-1N7 does not read the SDHC card using Win 7 32 bit

    Hi all

    After that I installed windows 7 32 bit on my laptop, it does not read my sdhc card.
    And he did it when I got Vista.

    Can someone help what to do?

    Thank you very much:

    Adry

    Hello

    Have you installed the driver for the card reader?
    Have you noticed an unknown device in Device Manager?

    Please see the page of European disk from Toshiba for the card reader driver.
    Satellite A200-1N7 belongs to the PSAE3E series
    I found the driver of the card reader for Vista 64-bit
    Usually the Vista driver should work on Win 7 OS too

    If this does not work, then try the drivers released for A500 or L500 series!

    Thank you

    Hello

    First of all, you should check if are some registry issues.
    Go to the register a remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Then restart the device and check if you could read the CD.

    I had a lot of problems with different discs (CDs and DVDs) as well
    I could solve the problem. the problem is that my CD/DVD drive is not compatible with some CD and DVD from different manufacturers

    Finally, I bought some TDK CD - R and my CD/DVD player has been able to manage these disks
    I think you should check the different discs from different manufacturers too!

    Last but not least check if there is an update of the firmware of CD/DVD for you, CD/DVD player.
    To do this, you should visit checking page European driver Toshiba details more details.
    You will find the info if the firmware has been published for you CD/DVD drive.

  • Satellite P200-1EE does not read HD DVD drive TS-L802A HD

    I bought a P200-1EE of PC World and have found since that she has huge problems for reading HD DVDs via HD Toshiba DVD player software.

    I bought the last movie of Harry Potter of Warner Brothers to test the drive. Player software launches (after recognizing the media) once I inserted the disc to hd, but it crashes then once he eventually tries to read the disc. I know that the drive is ok because it worked without any problem on the Xbox HD dvd player, and on about 60 attempts, he played twice!

    The guys from PC World pulled a 1EE another P200 of their warehouse and after it is autoconfig he had the same problems, that is to say he ran the player then locked with a black screen (no error) and we finish the task the software does not respond.

    I'm a little frustrated and can not find the Board of anywhere. I have updated the bios of laptop computers, but can not find updates the firmware for Player software or drive. The driver doesn'tseem to have updates or the other (version 6.0.6000.16386)

    I have an exceptional appeal with Tosh but I hope someone else can have solved something similar.

    I am also looking for support playing movies through the HDMI cable, if I can get the laptop working.

    Thanks for your time my dear SIRS.

    Hello

    You use the Toshiba HD DVD player?
    If yes-> trying to update from Toshiba's HD DVD player with the update published on the Qosmio G30.
    There is an update of this utility, and the original version must be installed to perform this update!

    But please don t forget a fact; HD DVD technology is very recent, and not all movies have been designed with the same level.
    Sometimes may occur that the player will manage all HD DVD.

    Of course, you could try to test other HD DVD movies to ensure that equipment (HD-DVD player) is not defective

  • Satellite Pro A10 does not recognize the drive WEIRD AD - 7540A model

    Hi all.

    I just bought a new model slimline DVD rewritable AD - 7540A, brand Sony NEC Optiarc. When it is plugged into the computer laptop and for the POST, it appears the 'IDE #1 error' message after the operating system starts, I am unable to open the drawer and no CD/DVD can be read.

    I checked this drive on another laptop from another brand, and it works fine, so the problem is not in the drive itself. Could someone help me?

    Thanks in advance.

    The problem is simple.
    Your phone does support not all readers of CD/DVD slimline because different or bad master/slave/c-salt settings.

    The IDE #1 error message indicates that the BIOS cannot recognize the device connected to the #1 IDE controller.

    In your case, the solution is simple; you need to buy a compatible CD/DVD player and supported

    Mayen a user manual would provide details on the management of records.
    If not, then contact the ASP in your country and ask some compatible devices!

  • DVD/CD rom drive reads CDs but does not read the DVD.

    My Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop has a DVD/CD rom drive.  It loads all the CD I want and them automatically opens on the D drive.  When I put in a DVD movie it will not play.  I open my computer, and then look at the D drive, and it does not even recognize that there is a DVD inside but it shows a screen of a CD that I put in there.  This tells me that it works and it has a green light on the side which shows.  Also, when I insert the DVD it makes sounds as it tries to recognize, but then it stops and does not appear.  Can anyone help?  I really appreciate it.  I'm not very savvy computer.  I know that some in this topic because I am a teacher and try to catch up with things, but I'm certainly no computer technology.  Thank you very much!  Let me know if I need to give more info.  I think the reader is Sony CRX835EK but I'm not 100% sure on this one here.

    If your Player reads cd but not dvd which indicates that the material works very well. You need to change the registry inorder to solve this problem.

    1) click on the start menu
    2) click on 'run '.
    (3) type "regedit" and click ok
    4) go to the key of the string "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}.
    (5) delete "upper filters" and "lower in the right window.
    (6) right click on my computer in the start menu.
    7) click on properties
    8) go to the Hardware tab
    9) click on Device Manager
    (10) expand the dvd/cdrom drives
    (11) made a right click the dvd rom and click on uninstall
    (12) restart the computer

    After the reboot, windows should automatically install a ROM clean disc and read DVDs very well if you have the correctDVDdecoders

  • Satellite Pro A200 does not recognize the hard drive, XP Pro

    When I try and load XP Pro SP3 (32 bit) it will not install because it doesn't have SATA drivers. I downloaded the drivers and have an external floppy drive to install drivers by pressing F6. My question is the machine is listed as 64-bit and XP Pro is 32-bit. Choose the drivers ICH8M 32 or 64 bits. IE is the 32 or 64 bit on ICH8M see hardware or operating system.

  • Satellite Pro A10 does not pass the Windows page after removing SP2

    Hello

    I have a toshiba laptop Satellite Pro A10.
    I installed windows service pack 2 week last to try to get one of these dongles TNT to work, he never so I uninstalled service pack 2 I was going to try and reinstall it to see if it would work.

    Now, my problem is that the laptop will not go at all, it gets to the windows XP page and then everything stops, someone could help me I don't know what to do!

    Thank you
    Sharon

    Hi Sharon

    Seems that the system files are corrupted on the HARD drive.
    All of the installation and the removal of the service pack has damaged some files or registry entries.

    I don t think you will be able to resolve this situation without reinstalling the OS.
    In my opinion, it's a better way to get rid of this problem.

    Take the Toshiba Recovery CD and reinstall everything.
    If you want to back up your data, I recommend to connect the internal HARD drive to another computer via the external USB HDD controller.

    Good luck
