  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 :)

• Lenovo y530 Windows 7 installation cd/dvd driver problem

  Hello everyone!

I downloaded the image, tested on virtual machine and it works fine. So I decided to install it directly on my hard drive for portable computers. I burned a dvd with a possible minimum speed and here I had a problem. It starts very well, I choose the language and locale, but after she, I have information that there is a missing cd/dvd driver. Installer wants to give me a file location.

  I don't know what driver is needed. I downloaded files related to my Optirac drive but they are all exe and it does not accept the installation program. Could someone help me?

  I searched many forums, but there is no ansfer of satisfaing I can't use USB key to install it.

  Edit: have you tried with another order of start (CD 1) - with the same results

  The response was quite strange for me. I tried a DVD + R instead of DVD - R disc and it works

• Load Windows XP from external DVD drive

  Replaced the hard drive on laptop. DVD drive does not work on the laptop. How to install windows XP from an external DVD drive hard disk new?

  You must change the boot order in the BIOS of your computer.

  The boot order is order this computer tries to start from, for example, it can check the internal DVD first, then if there is nothing in there, go to the hard drive.

  You need to plug in your external DVD drive (it's probably USB).

  Then go into the BIOS setup - search for boot order and move the external DVD drive to the top of the boot list, so this is the first device to be "started" from.

  Then restart your laptop and then it should boot from the external DVD drive, which probably contains the installation media for Windows XP (DVD/CD).

• Windows thinks that my DVD drive is a floppy drive

  I've had my computer for almost 3 years now without problems and now my computer decided that my dvd drive is a floppy drive. I have no floppy drive in this computer.

  I am running windows vista ultimate, 32 bit. My dvd player is an Asus - model unknown, bought 3 years ago

  Device Manager can't find the drive, but does not have a floppy drive

  ->, I uninstalled the floppy drive he sees and has attempted to use the scan for hardware, but it cannot find the diskette again. Tried to restore the computer by using the system restore, which did not work. The player turns on and turn when I put a disc in but nothing and does not pop up in my computer (which only shows my hard drive and a non-existent floppy disk)

  After trying to use demon for a drive emulator tools so that I could actually stop using the physical disk that I don't want to wear them first noticed the problem. Daemon tools has been uninstalled from the restore points, I used so I don't think that is the question.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Bob

  I did what you suggested and none of it worked. Thank you for your help and I have a solution that worked well.

  I turned off the computer, unplug the drive (power and sata of course), computer turned off, shut down, reconnected and when I restarted it again, my drive was normal.

• CD/dvd drive is not listed in Device Manager

  my laptop is a hp pavillion entertainment pc dv6605us, running windows vista. the cd/dvd drive is not read / write any CD and it is not listed in Device Manager. I tried to fix this problem by using the microsoft fixit tool, but I'm still having the same problem. I checked the system registry and found no upperfilters and lowerfilters.
  Please, how can I solve this problem?

  Hello

  Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as it is often the total process
  which solves the problem.

  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.

  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.

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\IDE
