T430 optical drive power management?

I remember when I first to get unity in its pre-installed state, I have to press on the eject button on the optical drive twice, first to turn it on and secondly to actually eject.

But now I installed a new Windows 7 x 64. I downloaded the drivers and the power of the Lenovo site management software and installed. Much of the work of things, but doesn't seem that the optical drive is still on, i.e. only pressing the eject button ejects the disc.

May I know if the power management actually manages the power of optical disc when it is not in use?

Well, I discovered the cause, I did not install the AHCI driver. After installing, there is an option to automatically turn off the player.

  • Satellite A660 - optical driver turns off when burning DVD

    I have a problem with the optical drive of energy saving options that disables the drive while burning.

    I tried all the suggestions mentioned here [http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Satellite-Laptops-A-Series/Optical-drive-automatically-turns-off-due-to-power-saver/td-p/223654], but it does not help.

    I start at the burn in Ashampoo Burning Studio free, and he seems to be good until the end. When it starts the process of lead-out the popup of the optical signals Drive Power drive is turned off. It's funny because it is still running at the speed of combustion and it will not stop. The reader becomes unresponsive, even I can't the DVD out. Even, that it disappears from the list of devices.

    The only way I thought so far to stop the car and release the DVD is in the shutdown/Hibernate the computer.

    Once the dive starts working again the STRANGE Fn-tab functionality started working and I can turn it on/Off/ejection at will.

    All the burned DVD - s are not valid, and so far I have not managed to burn a single functional DVD.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A660 - PSAW3E with Win7 Enterprise 64-bit.

    Is there a way to fix this? Remove the optical drive power management?

    Hello

    To be honest I have never heard of this issue, but it appears that the optical drive power management is part of the power of Toshiba configuration utility.
    Part of the Toshiba value added package configuration done Toshiba power utility.

    What you can try, for testing purposes, to remove the Toshiba added value of the system package, restart your computer and try to burn DVDs again to see if the same problem will occur again.

    Toshiba value added package contains several tools such as utility cards flash FN so after his withdrawal, you will not be able to use the FN keys. In any case, after that trial, you can download and install Toshiba value added package again.

    I mean, I know what kind of conflict is there, but maybe you should consider it.

  • Power Manager is suspended.

    Hello

    There is a ThinkPad Edge 15, which I've updated the BIOS system 1.21.

    I installed Power Manager for him and he hung around 5 times. Then I uninstalled it, and it does not crash again.

    I thought that maybe the problem is with the battery firmware, so I downloaded the firmware (and also the wrapper) and they both said: "There is no battery attached to the system in need of update of the firmware." or something like that.

    I thought perhaps that he needs, a battery meter, so I installed Power Manager again and the hanging started.

    I think the time it works on battery is too low, even for a battery 4 cells. He first said about 1 hour 45 minuets when it is loaded to 100%, then after 45 minutes (with the same low use, as in the beginning), it is said remainging of 45 minutes (of which a quarter is absent here.) and in the final minutes, it seems like running more than the estimate, he does now (every 2 minutes minute is decreesed of the estimate).

    Thanks in advance.

    Power Manager is 3.52 now. You can download it below.

  • Feature "Automatically turn off the optical drive" deleted in Power Manager 6.61 Update?

    Hello Lenovo Community!

    I'm running a Lenovo W510 4391-A72 Windows 7 Professional (x 86) SP1.

    Recently, (thanks to sclexman for helping me) after the installation of System Update 5.05 and update all my Lenovo software, including Power Manager (6.65.2-> 6.66.1), the ability to 'Automatically power down from optical drive' is no longer available! Is there an explanation as to why this feature was removed?

    If so, is it possible to restore this functionality?

    Thank you

    it_geek.

    Shortly after that I posted about I tried to redo the system update. Wa - la, when you mentioned something about Intel AHCI rapid storage driver I checked to see that when the system update ran the last time he uninstalled the old version but somehow, it didn't update the new version in. System update has since installed version 12.8.10.1005, and the option appears according to normal on Power Manager 6.66.1.

  • My optical drive is not displayed in "Device Manager" the eject button does not work

    Latitude Dell with Windows 7

    My optical drive does not show in the "Device Manager", the eject button does not work - I can only eject through the pin hole.

    This means that the drivers are missing or that the disc is broken?

    I tried to restart.

    Thanks in advance

    Original title: Reader in mind windows 7

    Its possible the drive has failed. Is this an internal or an external drive? In both cases, make sure that all cables are properly connected and functional, including the power cables. If its a USB external drive then try another USB port.

    But, assuming that you tried to update the drivers (get the latest compatible drivers on the manufacturers for your brand/model/OS(32/64 bit) PC support site and install to see if that helps - first set a system restore point)) and then see if this MS article helps - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/cd_dvd_drive_problems?wa=wsignin1.0

  • Satellite A660 Win7 - power management system action center is missing driver

    I replaced the battery on my laptop Toshiba A660-15J and a few months, is back with the battery high capacity and now Action Center 7 win keeps popping up with the message that I need to download and install the missing driver for power management system.

    The power supply has been replaced not at all, nothing has changed, except for the battery.

    Costs of light on the functions of the laptop, as it did before the battery change.
    It turns on and is red and after a few hours, it becomes white and the battery level shows that it is 100%

    The problem is that this center of windows 7 says that missing one driver ACER? -> WTF?

    The link to download it from DOES NOT

    It seems odd that the link that windows provides its on a site of acer, but since part´s manufacturers other´s manufacturers use it does not at all surprise me.

    I want just the clarification and confirmation of what I have to do here, and why to toshiba Service does not show this update?

    I read that the BIOS update can fix this, however there is NO bios update for my laptop.
    I have also contacted MICRO$ OFT but I'm still waiting for a response from them.

    I also read other messages on various toshiba forums that relate to this same problem, but they used to say that the model is not supported by toshiba in this country...

    I clicked on the link on this forum directly on the site of Toshiba Australia, so please do not tell me that my model is not supported on this forum of Toshiba Europe!

    The exact message:
    Download and install the driver for your power management system
    Your power management system is missing a driver.
    To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
    Press or click on to download the driver of the A + c + e + r society Web site
    Download and extract the driver files
    Type and click on save or save as, and then save the file to your desktop. If you can t choose where to save the file, you will need to find and copy it to your desktop. When you download files, most of the web browsers save them in the folder to download on your computer.

  • G550 power management driver

    Hello

    Somewhere in my travels I have uninstalled the Lenovo power management driver, preferring to rely on the installation of clean energy from Win7. But now I think that I need this driver in order to activate Bluetooth. A research on the Lenovo site grew up anything for the G550.

    I have the original adapter broadcom 802.11 wireless, and I put his advanced properties, the bluetooth collaboration, to activate. But there is no Bluetooth item in Control Panel, and Fn + F5 does nothing. I downloaded and tried utility of Broadcom Bluetooth discovery, nothing helps. Lenovo ReadyComm said that no BT software is available.

    So maybe the key is to install the Lenovo power management driver. Anyone know where I can get it?
