Update driver for CD/DVD on Equium L20-264

Hiya,

I would like to replace the driver in my laptop because it is not working properly, and dixons said it will take 4 to 6 weeks to fix. I need my laptop, so I can't wait that long.
Could you tell me please, what brands and types are suitable for this laptop? Is it easy to replace?
Thank you very much

Gabor

Hello

Not every reader of the laptop is compatible because the parameters master/slave/c-salt and, therefore, it is important to know which drive can be used.
Did you check your user manual? In my manual, I found the compatible players and supported for my laptop.

The removal of the drive is not very difficult for a person with experience in computer science.
The reader is fixed with a screw under the keyboard and with a screw at the bottom of the unit
You must turn the computer over and remove the screws holding an optical disk drive. An optical disk drive, then unplug the connector on the system board.

But if you have no experience, you should do that. You should ask the technician for help!

    Thanks in advance

    Hi mate.

    As far as I know your laptop supports two memory locations.
    They must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
    If you n t know how to change this then I recommend consulted the user manual!
    The manual can be downloaded from the Toshiba European page.
    I think that the laptop can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM. So, you can use 1 GB of RAM in one slot.

    PS: you must use the RAM DDR2 PC2-4200 memory - 200pin modules

  • Recommended graphics card and processor for Equium L20-264

    Hello

    I was wondering which graphics cards are compatiable with equium l20-264 because I have a radeon eXpress standard ATI 200 m (waste) and wanted to update my graphics card, but I'm a beginner I upgraded my ram but really need an update for my graphics card to a lot of games for vista (you probably think how I have vista on a computer no-vista laptop ^_^)

    I was also wondering if I coould go my Proccesor to a best something like 1.0 GHZ to 2.5 GHZ but a one celeron so I don't have to get a new motherboard.

    Hello

    I would recommend not all graphics cards for this camera because it s is usually not possible to replace or update the chip graphic card on laptops.

    Upgrading the CPU would be possible.
    The CPU of the new generation of motherboards for laptop is not welded and it might be possible to remove it.
    BUT the updates are not recommended because
    -first of all, you will lose the warranty and
    -Second, the laptop could run unstable due to the higher temperature.

    However, I found a few compatible Intel Celeron - M CPU, which are supported by the motherboard:
    Intel Celeron-M 350 (1.30 GHz) FSB: 400 MHz
    360 (1.40 GHz)
    370 (1.50 GHz)
    380 (1.60 GHz)

  • Updating drivers for CD & DVD corupts

    After today's windows XP update of my CD - RW and DVD disappeared from the 'My Computer' list.  When I go into the device manager that I have failed to load the corrupted or missing device drivers.  I get an error code 39?  Looking for a resolution, thanks JB

    Hello

    Code 39 means that the driver is corrupted or missing.

    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    =================================

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
    Operation of the network.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  • Satellite A200 - need driver for CD/DVD drive

    Hey people.

    Recently installed WXP Pro on my laptop A200 PSAEC, so I'm now in dual boot XP and Vista on my laptop.

    Problem is that I have all the drivers doesn't work on XP and everything works perfectly, but when I tried to burn a DVD, Nero said the recorder cannot burn DVDs. In 'My Computer', the drive shows up as a DVD - RW drive, but when I insert a blank DVD, it says CD drive. The drive shows up as "TCSDcor" CD/DVGW TC - L6 #2D "" in Device Manager. I searched a driver, but it is impossible to find an exact match for this drive and there is no driver optical drive on this section of driver from the Toshiba site. The only thing I found is an executable file of the firmware upgrade, but it throws an error saying that it is the wrong drive.

    Anyone got any ideas?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello

    You don't need a new driver for CD/DVD drive because it s a part of the operating system. So, you won't find one.

    I think you should try to remove the upper and lower filters in the registry. I did the same thing a few days ago, if I also had problems with my CD/DVD player and it worked for me! :)

    I guess you use a bad video driver or a bad graphics card driver update procedure.
    Toshiba recommends to use own graphics drivers. All the drivers for laptops Toshiba Europe you will find on this site:

    After having successfully downloaded, please unzip the driver. There you should find a setup.exe. Please install it.
