Satellite L300D-11A - DVD-drive issue and Blue Screen

Hi
I'm going out of my mind :o//
My Satellite L300D-11A was delivered with a Windows Vista Home Premium, but I recently made a clean installation of the Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits.
Since then I have had problems with "Blue screen error's" comming randomly. Have purchased and installed a Registry clean up program, but that did not fix the problem. Any one else with that problem - and a possible solution.
And now for my big problem. My CD and DVD drive is driving me crazy ;o) It's a Mat****a DVD-RAM UJ-850S ATA and from my search on the internet I have found that a lot of other Mat****a owners have had the same or similar problem(s). My drive will not regonize or play/read from CD's. DVD with movies or programs I can play. Burning CD's is not possible and burning DVD's is sometimes working, and other times not.
I have read about the different fixes that is posted - also here on the Toshiba forum - Non of the suggested solutions is working for me - any new solutions that I could try.
Seriously thinking about buying a external USB DVD drive/burner - but can someone please tell me why Toshiba does not get the fingers out off their B** and find a solution like it seams Sony has done.
Look forward to any reply ;o))
Someone once told me about this quote - "Don't wish it was easier - work on getting clever !" I need your help to get clever ;o))

> But I do not now how/where to get the registration keys! I have tried looking for them.
Are you talking about *Upper/Lower Filters* ?
Follow these instructions for clearing the Upper/Lower Filters:
Click on Start --> Run --> and type in 'regedit' followed by the enter key
Expand the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" key (looks like a folder) by double clicking it (or clicking the "+" next to it.)
Expand the "SYSTEM" Key
Expand the "CurrentControlSet" Key
Expand the "Control" Key
Expand the "Class" Key
Please look for a key containing the following string of letter and numbers:{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
High light this key by left clicking once on it
On the right hand side you are looking for "UpperFilters" and "LowerFilters" under the "Name" column, once you find these please delete them by right clicking on them and choosing "delete"
Please exit the registry by clicking on the "X" in the top right hand corner of the screen
Reboot your computer

Toshiba Satellite a505-6005 hard drive issue and questions regarding options I may have

Issue: start up computer and windows does not start. It eventually goes to a startup repair screen and eventually says "resolving disk errors...", and that's if it even gets to that screen. Unfortunately I never made a recovery disk or system image discs (I know that was not smart). I did however kept my files backed up so that was good.
Steps I took: Took it to Best Buy and the tech advised me that the Black Tie 2 year protection had expired on Jan 30th 2012, and so it could not be repaired for free. I asked the tech there how much it would cost to fix and they had advised me that it was most likely a hard drive issue and that it would cost nearly $400 to replace/fix it. So I decided to buy a new Asus K53E-BBR14 laptop since it was not much more. When I got home and loaded everything up and got the computer to how I want, I went ahead and made a recovery disc and system image disc's. I tried using the recovery disc that I had made with my Asus in the Toshiba laptop and boot it from the dvd drive and it did not get anywhere. So I ASSUME that it really is a hard drive error because the RAM worked just fine in my new laptop and "repairing disk errors.." means something is wrong with the hard drive:
Now that you know the background of what has happened my questions are as followed:
1. Can I buy a new hard drive for the Toshiba and use the recovery and system image disc's i created on the new hard drive that i install in the toshiba? and just removed the bloatware from Asus (or does that not even get added to the disc's I created)?
2. If so, will it prompt me to enter the Windows 7 product key? and therefore using the product key located on the bottom of the toshiba?
3. What other steps could I take to make this toshiba laptop salvageable? This way i can turn around and sell it.
Thanks,
Russell States

Also,
I noticed that i can purchase (well pay the shipping anyways) recovery media from Toshiba. Can I use that on a new hard drive installed in the toshiba?
BTW ran the Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool and no problems were found with the memory. and i do not care about the old hard drive as I have MY files backed up. I just want to try to get this toshiba laptop back to being "like new".
Thanks,
Russell

DVD drive issue and permissions repair

Forgive me if I'm combining two issues in this posting. If they are not related I can separate them out.
I don't know if my drive is going, but I have a DVD for a tv show that I wanted to watch on my Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard (latest patches). For a while now I've had to keep reinserting the disc because it's not registering. I put it in, and can hear mechanisms, then it spits it back out.
I watched one disc, ejected it then tried to play another and it just would not load.
I thought of checking disk permissions, thinking maybe the OS had some permissions problems that may be preventing it from reliably reading the disc. The disk utility reported a number of permissions errors and owner errors, so I repaired the permissions and it reported that it was completed successfully. I thought I'd run the verify permissions again, just to make sure the errors had really been repaired, and they're still there - some of them were gone, but there were others reported. I ran the repair and verify a number of times now and nothing's changed.
My questions:
1. Could the problem I'm seeing with my DVD drive be related to permissions of some of the system files?
2. Do I have anything to worry about with the disk permissions not appearing to be repaired?
3. Would I gain anything by booting to install media and running the verify and repair from there?
Thanks much in advance!

Could the problem I'm seeing with my DVD drive be related to permissions of some of the system files?
If you've repaired permissions, and you still have the problem, then the answer is no.
Do I have anything to worry about with the disk permissions not appearing to be repaired?
Mac OS X: Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore
Would I gain anything by booting to install media and running the verify and repair from there?
No.

Satellite A - CD/DVD drive issues

Hi guys going insane..
I have the following issues, trying to burn cd or dvd. Sometimes i wont recignise the disk as a blank disk ready to use, sometimes it burns then shows nothing on the disk, sometimes it burns most of a disk then fails, sometimes it works perfect..
Today for example i put in a 6 disks tried to copy data off hd then failed, 7th disk works fine. Then when i get back into the program, it all of a sudden wont recignise any blank disks i put in keeps saying inserted cd/dvd could not be detected successfully, there is not logic to it.. few times i have gone into only ever ashampoo and it says no cd burner device detected, never had that before.. Sometimes i have issues rarely with it finding a dvd i have to put it in a few times then it finds it.
Im not sure if its related but i have had this error come up as well, or what does this relate to?

I have run a cleaning cd through it no help.. tried different cds and dvds no help, and set up windows from scratch twice, and update some software, used different formatting software and options.
I have restored the computer from backup disks no better, i have updated the value added package drivers, and the dvd silencer software. I have tried burning in explorer, nero, dvd shrink, ashampoo buring etc etc.. Still getting mixed results.
Im not sure if its a hardware or software issue, i have never had a problem with it reading real copy dvds, sometimes probs wih burnt ones but if i put it in and out six times it works.
Any ideas, im wasting a whole lot of cds and dvds with my failures..

Hi
>Whats a hardware Odd problem mean and can it be fixed?
I dont know what hardware issue could it be but in most cases the drives laser lens could be one of the reasons why the ODD does not handle the inserted disks correctly.
> I wonder if it could also be a drm issue?
Maybe, its not the first time that music files couldnt be copied due to the copy protection but in my opinion this is not the case because you said that sometimes the ODD worked properly.
> I never thought about it being the disks, so do you use tdk dvd and cds and have no dramas now? And were you having the same problems as me previosuly?
Well, I said only that I made a good experience which such disks (CD and DVD).
But every ODD supports different disk. In you user manual you could find a list of compatible disks
However, I think you should test the CDs and DVD from different manufacturers in order to find out the best disk for your drive.

Satellite L300D-11V - DVD drive disappeared

I have an L300D 11V. The DVD drive seems to have disappeared can someone suggest a way of getting replacement drive? They don't appear to be in the computer.
thanks

Hi
Is the drive listed in device manager or where doesnt appear the drive exactly?
If you go into BIOS, can you see the drive there?
Anyway, in your case I would try to remove the upper- and lowerfilters as you can read here:

DVD drive issues and other problems

Nothing but problems with my mac since day one. This is the reason why I went from PC to Mac to avoid all these problems.
Started with DVD drive problems. Took my computer in as they said wound need to replace the drive -and it would take a week.... sorry I can't be down for a week. Many of my businesses rely heavily on me have access to my computer.
There have been many small glitches since then also. Some times the display wont come back on after I have closed the lid and re-opened. Only way to get it working again is to do a manual restart.... and sometimes that doesn't even work.
<Title Edited by Host>

I forgot to mention that I have also cleared my PRAM (a few times) -- so that's probably not the culprit.

Need help with Low disk space issue and blue screen

Hi Everyone, just seen a message stating a low disk space on my Mac pro bought last November and tried plugging in an external hard drive to remove some pictures to free up some space but it seems that the computer did not have enough space left to start up and run the hard drive. I then tried to restart and ended up with a blue screen and have no knowledge now how to fix this problem. I phoned support but they say I have no technical support left but do have warranty and I would need to either try with the community here or take the unit to an apple store for an appointment. The store is an 1 and 1/2 from me and I really want o see if there is another fix that could allow me to start again then remove some files and then add external drive to remove more. I was blown away at the low amount of storage.....looked for the icloud option last night to upload there as i was told about this by a UK client of mine and now see it is not up and running. Any advice or help by the communtiy would be greatly appreciated as this is my business and travelling laptop. Cheers, Dean <")))><

Great to hear Dean, thanks!
Further notes: OSX needs about 15% or 10GB Free space minimum, but will run mucch faster/safer with 30-40% or 50GB of Free Space... Free Space is no longer ours to use.
Another tool to help clear up assorted things is Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

BSOD open cd dvd drive nvgts.sys blue screens

hello
I recently built my MSi mainboard system
I started getting the BSOD almost anytime I opened my dvd drive. After a few minuets of using Google I discovered this is a common problem but with no certain fix. I did find a fix for a 750i msi mainboard but i have a MSI p7n diamond (780I)
Can you offer any help with this?
Thank you so much!

Ok. Your current DVD drivers can be found in - Start - Settings - Control Panel - System Properties - Hardware - Device Manager - DVD/CD ROM Drives - 'Select' Lite-On, right click, click properties - Driver. If it doesn't say 'Provider Microsoft', that's got be uninstalled, let the reboot detect the new hardware (your installed drive), & let Windows install it's driver. (It may ask for your XP install disc to find the driver for the hardware setup).
Any way, this is what mine shows as drivers for my DVD/CD/BD drives = (100% troublefree), & I'm running & burning some heavy duty app's.;
Driver Provider: Microsoft
Driver Date: 7/1/2001
Driver Version: 5.1.2535.0
Digital Signer: Microsoft Windows Publisher
I'll do some more forum searching, because it was here I found the fix. Time frame was around Jun/Jul '08. Also seems it involved something about RAID drivers as a part of the discussion. Also going to pull out the MSI Install disc & browse it to maybe help remember more, but using the Windows driver should solve this for you.
The Drive's firmware is what counts most (BL06 is the most recent). The Driver that will make the drive recognized for sure, is the Windows version. Nvidia can provide a new driver today, but that don't mean it will work.
Edit: That referenced forum post you linked, is the one that propelled me to find the other one. Will start my search Apr. Don't think it was in the OC & Mod. subject. Will start in the Intel Core 2 first.

Satellite L630-10R - Won't boot and blue screen

Hi everyone,
I recently bought this laptop that had everything to satisfy me, unfortunately, I've been encountering a problem since yesterday night and I want to try everything reasonable before bringing it back to guarantee.
I was using the computer quite casually (online games, web browsing, VoIP mostly) when it decided to shutdown and reboot. Now, everytime I try to boot windows, even in safe mode, I get a blue screen as soon as I've entered my password. The same problem happens when trying to run in safe mode.
I thought it could just be a really aggressive and efficient virus and thought it was well deserved, knowing I hadn't installed an antivirus yet. So I burned an Ubuntu liveCD on another computer and tried to recover my data from there, but to no avail : Ubuntu won't start either, instead it just gives me some kind of memdump or stacktrace (at least I guess it is, because it's got hexadecimal addresses and what looks like function names)
I'm kinda stuck and I really don't understand what could have caused this. Any idea would be appreciated. An error code that showed up when trying to boot windows, but that does not _always_ show up, is something along the lines of *DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL*
Thanks in advance,
shin

Hi,
sorry for the late reply, I was busy this week end but I finally solved my problem on sunday in the evening by updating the BIOS from the 1.4 version to the 1.7 version using a bootable CD. No more blue screen when starting windows and no more problem with Ubuntu either (which I had been able to run in the meantime with the "noacpi" option.)
I wasn't able to find the recovery CD like you suggested, I'm not even sure it was in the box - then again, I'm not the most tidy person in the world and it could be anywhere in the room as far as I know...), but thank you anyway for taking the time to reply. =)

Satellite Pro L300 - DVD drive error code 10 on Vista.

Can't see DVD drive on "my computer" Under device manager its showing drive but with yellow triange, after looking at info, the device status is "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" tried restarting 2 times. Thats not working.
Also cheaked drivers, on my computer and internet, windows is saying there up to date and im running the latest.
Tried to uninstall drive and restart thats failed.
When instering a disk the drive does move and spin the disk, so im hoping its a technical issue and doesnt need new drive.
Any help is welcome
thanks

Hi mate
Dont worry it seems its just a registry issue.
First of all remove the CD/DVD drive from the device manager list.
Then go to registry and remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
+HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contr ol\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}+
Details here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us
Then reboot the notebook.
Wait until the OS has recognized the CD/DVD drive again and check it.

G50-70: empty DVD-drive clicking and freezing other drives for about 30 seconds all the time

Hello board. Big problem. Seem to be the only one having this after searching the board:
Brand new G50-70: When using OS from the SSD or using OS from the SSD and doing things with a USB-drive, the empty internal DVD-drive making clicking sound and sometimes freezing SSD read/write operation for about 30 seconds but all the time freezing USB-storage read/write operation for about 30 seconds.
When freezing there's always clicking. But when clicking there's not always freezing except when using USB-storage.
OS is Win81-64.
An example scenario: connect USB stick, open terminal, type diskpart, dvd-drive clicks and freezes opening of diskpart for about 30 seconds, then the same may or may not happen when entering commands like clear the stick and format the stick.
Any clues, why I have this issue? Thank you very much for reading.
Solved!

hi georg43,
it's possible that there's a software running on startup that's accessing the ODD when the machine is being used (especially if the ODD LED blinks when it's being accessed)..
To check, you can perform a clean boot to temporarily disable apps & services running on startup. If the machine functions properly on a clean boot, you will need to enable the startup services/programs that you have disabled in groups of two or three (trial and error) to find the culprit. You can start by enabling the lenovo services and apps first followed by the Intel ones and observe.
In addition, you can also try to disable the DVD-drive under device manager and observe.

ITunes for 64bit Windows 7 Driver/CD/DVD/Drive Issues-

Hi There
I am sure that there are many many users out there suffering the same frustration as me in regard to ITunes just not working properly with Windoews 7 (64Bit).
I have been trying to solve the mystery of "ITunes for Windows Registry Settings Warning When Opening Itunes.
I have tried all the recommended actions to correct this problem without any success and I do mean ALL.
Below is a screen shot of my registry, can anyone see anything wrong with it?
In the meantime (Last four months) I have stopped using ITunes and instead have used Digital 7, this will be my very last attempt to get ITunes working properly, failure will mean consigning ITunes to the same place as any other Software that does not do wshat it says on the can.
I hope someone can help.

That's good that it is in device manager, but what about in Computer with the rest of the drivers?
Also, are the drives listed in Computer and device manager or just device manager?
I want to verify if the symptoms are present for a particular software issue before looking at other issues. I really doubt it is a driver issue at this point. If it was, then I suspect the issue would be present from day one.
It could be that the lens has dust buildup preventing it from working properly. They do make CD cleaning kits that have a special CD designed to clean the laser as it passes over the lens. If you happen to have one of these, or access to one, I recommend trying this step to make sure it isn't as simple as dust buildup interfering with the laser.
It could also be hardware failure, but I would like to try a few other steps before coming to that conclusion.
It may be worth reviewing this document as it covers a lot of the most common issues behind DVD drive issues. Feel free to skip any steps you have already tried.
Let me know what happens.

I still have Cd/DVD drive issues

The CD is ejected after a short while and never mounted. I have cleaned the optics of the CD drive and reset my PRAM.
Has anybody discovered a complete solution for this problem.

Satellite Pro A210 DVD Drive not working - error code 39

Hi All
My Satellite Pro A210 dvd drive is not loading.
When I looked into it it showed an error code 39.
I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it but it's still not working.
Any ideas?

Hi
From my knowledge the error message 39 appears if the CD/DVD drive is not visible in the My Computer.
You can try this workaround:
Go to device manager and delete the CD/DVD drive from the device list.
Then go to registry (regedit) and remove the upper and lower filters from the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Then reboot the unit and test it again
I think this should help!
