  This article will tell you 3 ways to solve the problem of the CD/DVD drive do not read the DVD disc. Please the process step by step.

  Solution1. Clean the DVD disc

  If your Player cannot detect the DVD disc, the first thing you need to do is to clean the DVD disc. Use a soft and dry cloth (not painted) to wipe the disc from the center of the disc to the edge. Please take care to not to use a paper to clean the disc with a circular motion, it will scratch the disc.

  After cleaning, inert the DVD on the drive to see if it works, if the reader can't read the disc, use a cloth of cotton wet with water or alcohol to clean the disc.

• Portege Z930-118 does not recognize the external USB CD/DVD drive

  My new Z930-118, with windows 7 64 bit home, does not recognize the external CD/DVD drive when I plug it into the USB port.

  The CD/DVD device does not even appear at all in Device Manager.

  The reader is a SE-S084 Samsun and works well on another laptop.

  I already checked for the "upper_filter", "lower_filter" with the regedit, but entries are not there, so no help.

  Hello
  I m not very well how to help you.

  I found some information about this WEIRD disc and it seems that he didn't need an external power supply. Its USB bus powered so I guess around 500mA power since it is the default value provided by a USB 2.0 port.

  I don t think that there is a problem of missing software. It is a plug n play device so you need to connect it to the USB port and the system should automatically recognise.

  From my point of view of the few you try to connect the external USB ODD two ports to aid a * Y * Cableusb.
  I think the reader needs more power provided by a single USB port.

• Satellite A300 - how to use the recovery with external DVD drive disc?

  Hello

  I bought a toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 d

  FTM the tsscorp drive that is installed in the camera no longer works (does not detect any type of media what so ever). ) need to recover the laptop, so I used a USB DVD drive to boot from the restore disc, but after that the charges of recovery console it says waiting for media in the f: drive, which is the tsscorp drive although I used an external drive to load the disc.

  What files should I edit to make it to load from the drive externally and if this isn't the solution, what do I do?

  Thanks in advance

  Hey Buddy,

  Unfortunately I think that it of not possible to use the recovery with external CD/DVD drive disc. Therefore, place the internal for use the recovery disc.
  You can get a new drive to an authorized service provider.

  But if the original OS from Toshiba is installed, you can use the function of disk recovery HARD reinstall Windows as well. Go to the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer :)

• To the Satellite 2450-101 DVD drive failure

  Hi guys again...

  I have another problem with my old laptop Toshiba Satellite 2450-101 which I hope you can help me with.
  The original DVD-rom drive - a Teac DW - 224th - went "off the radar" a couple of times a year and only re - appear in my computer after a re-boot, but he then quickly disappear again.

  It is curious that the drive is still listed in device as Manager works correctly.
  Would have to be a complete reinstallation to get it back again when the process would start over.

  Now during the boot process, a message appears at the top of the screen saying "error Eide...

  In both cases, readers are completely dead and does not eject even trays.
  Needless to say, it's driving me crazy.

  You can boot from the bootable CD?

  If so, then try to remove the upperfilters and lowerfilters:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?ID=314060

  If you cannot start from the CD, then either:

  (1) the ODD or another component of the motherboard connector is defective / in bulk.
  (2) the original Teac ODD is defective, and the new Sony is not compatible (has the wrong master/slave settings)

• The satellite A65-S1063 DVD drive does not work with this type of disc

  Hello world
  have a strange problem - my combo does not read dvd - r of a box. Everything is ok, when I put a disk anywhere else, but in this particular area or empty or written are recognized, it crashes just after trying to read and the lamp burning. The most funny thing is that when I check the discs on other computers, everything is fine with them. Any ideas?

  Hello

  For me it s case. You have updated firmware and this kind of DVD is not listed in the list of firmware. As Stefan has suggested, try a different brand of DVD.

  Can anyone throw any light on what is happening on Earth on?

  Hello

  There are various reasons why this error message:
  In most cases this error because the laptop is trying to boot from a HARD drive or flash drive that is not configured correctly. Maybe the drive is not bootable or not compatible.

  It would also be possible that some sectors on the HARD disk, HARD drive failures are corrupt or BIOS is damaged. NTLDR error messages may also appear if the master boot record is damaged.

  In your case I recommend that you format the first HARD drive before booting from the hard drive CD7DVD external using Win XP CD.

  By the way: you must add SATA driver to CD Win XP using nLite.
  The SATA driver is placed on the European driver Toshiba page in the Intel Storage Manager

  The SATA driver is needed to recognize the HDD by Win XP!
