Trying to get HD-DVD drive to work on Satellite P100-463

Hi everybody.
I bought this baby on the weekend and since I am struggeling trying to get HD-DVD to work on it. I added the xbox 360 HD_DVD drive but the Power DVD Software Advisor keeps telling that the graphic card 9Geforce Go 7900) drivers need to be updated in order to play HD-DVD content. Now, there is no newer driver available as the one installed (84.0?)
Can anybody please advise if the card supports hdcp protection anyways? Maybe my problem has another source.
Thanks for advice.

Wait do you use the drive designed for the Xbox in the Satellite P100?
Hmm, Im surprised that this device is compatible with the Toshiba notebook.
Anyway, as far as I know you need a special DVD software player to play and watch HD-DVD on the notebook.
A simple WinDVD does not support the new HD-DVDs.
By the way: I know one Toshiba model that was delivered with the HD_DVD drive.
It was a Qosmio G30 DVD HD Model.
I found in the driver download section on the Toshiba site a new update of Nvidia GeForce Go7600 graphic card driver Version 8.3.2.7
But I dont know if its compatible with you card...

Is there a TB limit on Macs over USB? Trying to get a 3TB drive to work in a dock over USB and it shows up as a 800Gig drive.

I purchased a StarTech Dual Dock eSata / USB 2.0 model #:SATADOCK22UE. I've tried using it with 3TB drives and it works fine over eSata, but when I plug it in via USB, the drives show up un-initialized and in disk utility, show up as 800Gig drives. I contacted StarTech's technical support and they said this is a limitation in Mac's USB chipset. The max you can plug into USB is 2TB. Is this correct? I've never heard of this before.
I have a Mac Pro 3,1, running Mountain Lion. I tried the dock on a Mac Mini, same thing.

The answer you got is only have right. There are certain limits that limit you to 2.2TB.
It is a limitation in a chipset, but NOT the one in the Mac. It is a limitation of the Enclosure.
The technician who advised you needs additional training.

DVD drive not working on Satellite Pro U400-142

My DVD drive is not working. I insert a disk, can hear the drive working for some time but then nothing happens. I checked 'Device Manager' - under DVD/CD-ROM drives it shows: MAT****A DVD-RAM UJ862AS, but there is a black exclamation mark on a yellow circle next to it. I opened the 'Properties' dialogue box and under device status it says:
'Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot find the hardware device. (Code 41)
I'd like to try to try to solve the problem by re-installing the driver. I have checked the Toshiba website for the driver, but cannot find it.
I'd be most grateful if someone could give me any ideas on how to sove this problem.
Thanks
P

What you can do is follow:
Remove optical disc drive from device manager and restart your notebook.
The drive should be recognized and installed properly. If the same happen again try please > http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ8101LA0000R01.htm

Check the manufacturer website if the device is supported on Yosemite.
If not, you can get a SuperDrive from Apple which can run on any OS X version.

My DVD Drive dosent work and its dented and i can't get my DVD out. I have apple care so would I be able to get it replaced?

So I somehow dented my DVD drive for my macbook pro but I tried putting a disc if it would work (stupid idea) It went in but it now wont come out. I've been wanting to get to apple for a while about my DVD drive not working and now my DVD is stuck in there. I have apple care plan so would I be able to take my macbook into the store and get it replaced or parts of it replaced?

Yes, if you are in warranty. Take it in, only Apple employees can speak for Apple ( we are users here, just like you).

You would need to have burned the disc using iDVD or a third-party application such as Toast. Is that what you did?

Error code 39 - CD/DVD drive not working properly

Satellite C55D-5170 came with Win 8 and the first automatic software update upgraded it to Win 8.1.
I believe this is the first time I have tried to access the DVD drive but I had successfully used the flash drive. The DVD drive is not recognized. The Device Manager, under DVD/CD-ROM drives shows the yellow triangle in front of TSSTcorp CDDVDW SU-208FB. Clicking on that shows the following:
Location: Bus Number 2, Target Id 0, LUN 0
Device status
Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)
{Unable to Load Device Driver}
%hs device driver could not be loaded
Error Status was 0x%s
I looked through these forums and found that this Code 39 is frightfully common and does not seem to have an answer. I went to Microsoft's site and using their fix it, but nothing changed. I tried to update the driver but got the message saying I already had the current driver. I uninstalled the driver and rebooted the laptop and the driver was reinstalled but nothing changed, still not recognizing the DVD drive.
I need a solution so that I can install a WiFi router. It would be nice to play some CDs as well. Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide a solution.

You don't say which site and which fix. If it's the usual registry problem, this article should apply. Work your way through the suggestions.

Dvd drive not worked properly

i have hp pavilion dv4 series.my dvd drive not worked properly.for that purpose only i went 7 times in your service centre but they won't take action till now .why u people do like this .i want explation and just change my dvd drive that's all.

tcrite,
Sounds like a bad drive...I would get a replacement. According to Accelerate Your Mac database, it should work without issue.
Just enter the model number of the drive and select your Powerbook G3 2000, and you will see four reports on this model.

External DVD drive not working with Lombard G3 333

I have an external DVD drive that worked when I had 10.4, but had to reformat HD and now only have 10.3.9, and now the DVD drive does not work with DVDs, it will work with CDs and CDR media, but not with DVD media. My Lombard did not come with DVD originally and I am using a PC Card (Macintosh PowerBook DVD-Video PC Card For PowerBook G3 Series) and it worked before with 10.4, but not with 10.3, any ideas? Also have tried with 9.x, no go either. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, would it be difficult to add a DVD logic board to my Lombard?
Joey

xamdu,
I am reading and replying to this post after first replying to your other post, so a few of my previous comments are redundant.
Regarding the FireWire(?) USB 2.0(?) DVD drive: It is possible Tiger supported your DVD drive but Panther does not. I would give PatchBurn for Panther a try:

If the above is unsuccessful, take a look at this workaround:

You can swap logic boards but it does require a lot of disassembly.
Since no version of OSX supports Apple DVD Player, I am assuming you have a third-party player like VLC installed to watch movies. If this is the case, the DVD Decoder PC card is not necessary. If booted to 9.x, you of course will need the decoder PC card but I did not know 9.x's Apple DVD Player supported external drives.

My cd/dvd drive wont work what do i do ?

Hello teperepc,
Take a look at this page for trouleshooting your cd/dvd drive not working. About those other programs - do they freeze every time you use them? Do any other programs freeze, or just the audio/video stuff?
Thanks,

My CD/DVD Drive Only Works When I Jam the CD/DVD in hard..?

My CD/DVD drive only works when I stuff the CD/DVD in the drive EXTRA hard. If I just try to put in with normal force (that at one time worked) it spins the disc around, makes a spinning noise, and then ejects it. I'm taking it to the Apple Store soon. What should I expect to be wrong and is it fixable? Please share details. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
It sounds like the spring that loads the drive has gotten jammed by something. This can often happen if you use CDs with sticky labels, or do anything to label the discs directly. As a result of issues like these, I've not labeled any discs directly, and instead store the in jewelcases, and purchase them prepackaged in jewelcases to avoid such issues.
