update my optical drive DVD - RW for Blue Ray

Hello

I have the HP - dm4. I want to upgrade the optical drive to Ray blue one. Anyone know how to find the correct Blue ray optical drive for the dm4 computer?

Concerning

Here are the dimensions of the player, 128 (W) x 12.7 (H) x 127 mm (D). The thickness is what may change, but something after 2008 will be 12.7 mm thick. Remove your old drive and I can somewhat guarantee that these dimensions will be the same. The depth is measured with on the cover.

I also did some checking autour and some new very can be even thinner at 9.5 mm thick, check yours and compare with what you're going to buy, but your probably going to be 12.7 mm thick. (thickness is measured at its share of thickness)

  • HDX 18 laptop: DVD drive plays but not Blu - ray discs. No idea why?

    Drive seems to work fine and it plays DVDs, but when I insert a Blu - Ray disc, Media Smart software opens and after a few seconds, a boc opens and asks me "do you want to check for updates?"  with a Yes and no button.  No button produced no results and the Blu - Ray does not play.  Any thoughts?

    Hello

    If you use HP MediaSmart DVD to read Blu - ray disc, try the following.

    HP now provides a version of PowerDVD 10 Cyberlinks which seems to be a better solution.  Download the installer for it on the link below and save it to your desktop.

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp53001-53500/sp53029.exe

    When the download is complete, open windows panneau Panel configuration, open programs and features, right click the entry for HP MediaSmart DVD and select uninstall - once this process is complete, restart the laptop.

    When windows has reloaded, double-click the installer for PowerDVD 10 start the installation.  Once this done, see if your Blu - ray disc now plays OK.

    Hello

    I think that it should be possible, but we need to find an internal Bluray drive with compatible master/slave/c-salt settings.
    Optical disc with bad settings would not be recognized by the BIOS.

    As far as I know that some Toshiba laptops are equipped with an internal bluray drive.
    I recommend a compatible player requesting an ASP.

    My HP computer won't accept Blu - ray disc even though I have Cyberlink Pro 15 software is there a fix for this problem?

    Look at the drive on the computer and check if it has a Blu - Ray logo image on it.  If this isn't the case, you will need to buy a new drive able to read Blu - ray.

    I installed a new optical drive and I can't seem to use several DVD discs. It will install the first but does not install any more wide. Sometimes diving keeps opening and closing of the drive.

    Device Manager displays the driver for TS-H653R but optical device signals the driver to be SH-224DB_Sb00/1

  • Upgrade to a DVD to a Blu - Ray drive in a HP Pavilion DV6910 laptop

    My DV6910 came with a dvd/cd rom drive and I thought that the switch will be simple, but I have a feeling that the sata connector is going to be different. I bought a used one and it is on its way, but I'm starting to see photos of some of the connection point and the connectors while the two sata, are different. The one I bought did not have a picture of the back, but I suspect it's like others I've seen. All this experience?

    Hello

    I don't think that the laptop is powerful enough to manage blu - ray discs. I checked the specs for a dv6910us and there's a D2C AMD 2 GHz cpu and nVidia 7150 M, which is a very bad set config to play BR discs Readers Blu - Ray are supported on Intel based dv6700 recommended full portable series that might suggest that it would be the same on dv6900 series laptops.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

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

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and the
    correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.

  • How to burn videos full hd to dvd - r with Blu - ray burner for playback on a Blu - ray set top player?

    Hello

    Blu - ray media is still expensive for export small HD projects.

    If I have a Blu - ray burner,

    can I burn BD on DVD-r (4.7 GB) exports

    and play on a Blu - ray set top player?

    alias: DVD-r accepts a laser "blue"?

    (Menus at this point are not necessary)

    For the most part, I'm wanting to burn music videos for 3-4 minutes on DVD-r disks

    full HD Blu - ray without having to use expensive Blu - ray disc every time.

    Thank you

    j

    Ouch!  I don't really remember, but I think I burn with a DVD ol burner ' ordinary.  I have two; a BD - R drive and the DVD-R drive.  Once the image is made I don't think it's important.

    I would say go for it.

    If I'm wrong, I'll blame "Friday afternoon near time to quit smoking."

  • Help with the driver DvD Ram for satellite P10

    Where can I get a driver that works on my laptop?

    Hi Val,

    The correct driver for your laptop running Wnidows 2000 should be version 3.0.8.0 and is available for download from the Web from Toshiba website.

    I presume that it is the one that you tried, so I don't know what you mean when you say that "it doesn't."

  • It is Possible to replace the drive DVD Bluray for HP Pavilion dv6-6176sx

    Hi all

    It is Possible to replace the DVD Bluray for HP Pavilion dv6-6176sx notebook PC Player?

    Thank you

    Of course it isn't yet very difficult. You just need a BR drive or a drive? The replacement drive will be $80-120, or so, maybe a little less. You can find them on eBay. You can use a generic but that may require a redesign of the front or just get a car dv6-6000 BR on eBay. Trade on with a few screws on the bottom. Get out and drag the replacement. You will need new software to play BR movies, of course.
