X220, UltraBase Series 3 and DVD Multi IV, series problem

Hi,
I have these combination:
ThinkPad X220, 4286-CTO i7/USB3.0 model
ThinkPad UltraBase Series 3 P/N: 0A33932
Serial UltraBay Slim DVD MULTI IV P/N: 45N7451 (HL-GU10N)
I have encountered this problem:
When the DVD writer is in the Ultrabay and I init a system undock (Choose Eject Docking Station from system tray), the system freeze. Same when I press the button at left side of Ultrabase.
When DVD writer is in the Ultrabay and I slide the switch near Ultrabay, the system freezes.
If I turn on the "Power Off CDROM device when idle" in power management, the system freezes after some idle time.
Everything works fine when the Ultrabay is empty.
Is seems that everything points to the DVD writer, however the same DVD works well in X201 Ultrabase.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

Great! that is the answer I am looking for. Thanks a lot!

Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update Problem

Hi, my Mac OS 10.4.11 has a software update on 10-19-2008. It installed the update Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update, since then, my sharing panel stopped working, I can`t set any option of Services tab and my Firewall tab does not open, it is gray and I can`t click on it.

X220 / Ultrabase Series 3

The ethernet port on the ultrabase stopped working. Windows shows the port as "unplugged" When docked, the ethernet port on the X220 will not work either. When undocked the X220 ethernet port works. I've switched out the ultrabase with a different one and the problem remains. Anyone have any ideas?

X230 Table doesn't detect DVD Multi IV Ultrabay Slim in UltraBase Series 3

We bought two X230 Tablets for two Professors of our University and I'm responsible for getting them ready to use.
Unfortunately the DVD burner isn't recognized in the UltraBase Series 3 that we intended to use together with the X230.
I tried it with both of the UltraBase units, with both X230 Tablets and with both DVD burner.
Did we buy the wrong devices? Is there any driver necessary?
The DVD burner is not listed at all in the device manager (Windows 7), not even with missing driver. I can't open the disc tray and the LED is not on.
Please help!!!

Try to set this in BIOS:
Security -> I/O Port Access -> Ultrabay (HDD/Optical) -> Enabled

Multi sessions CD's and DVD's

Hi...to all who read my post re burning CD's and DVD's...thanks. I have it figured out. Working good, so far. Is there any way my computer will burn multi-session CD's and/or DVD's? We just bought a camcorder...would like to transfer from camera to DVD....not have to wait until enuf data to fill a DVD.Thanks, if advance for you help.

Since there is no standard for multiple session DVDs, you can't create them.
As for CDs:
In Disk Utility, create a disk image that contains the files you want to burn to the disc.
The files must be from a volume with a Mac OS Extended disk format. To check a volume's disk format, select the disk in Disk Utility and look at the information at the bottom of the Disk Utility window.
Select the disk image in the Disk Utility list and choose Images > Burn.
Select the "Leave disc appendable" checkbox. If you don't see this option, click the triangle in the top-right corner.
Insert a blank recordable disc in the optical drive, and click Burn.

When problems occur go back to basics. You stated D: is unreadable but C: partition is readable (if I understood right).
As sharp said use only one stick of ram. Remove any additional PCI cards installed other than Video. Do not plug in anything but the hard drive set to master.
Check to see if system will detect.
If at this point it properly detects your drive, check for a boot to windows. If it boots then remove the hard drive and try just the CD-ROM for detection purposes. If this detects try them together again, if they fail to detect you most likely have a power supply issue. And yes, PSU issues can crop up very suddenly.
If this fails take the Hard Drive to a friend and have them test it along with the CD-RW/ROM drives. If they work there and your issue still persists when you have eliminated all other possible points of failure you probably have a bad motherboard.
Sorry i forgot to tell that the harddisk that the D: cannot unreadable is i check it on other system as a slave.
Okay i will try your suggestion.
Thanks for your comment

Where is the driver for the LGE-DMGSA-U10N(B) DVD multi Burner.

Where is the driver for the LGE-DMGSA-U10N(B) DVD multi Burner.
Thank you,

Hello,
As far as I know, DVD±RW disc drives are automatically detected by Microsoft Windows XP and newer versions of Windows. Are you looking for the latest firmware? The latest update I could find for a T61 is here on Lenovo's support web site.

Replacing CDRW/DVD with DVD Multi

Procrastinator here. T60 2008-SAA with origninal CDRW DVD Ultrabay Burner installed.
Long time back, bought new DVD Multi III Ultrabay burner, never installed. This is my wife's prime computer for browsing and email, viewing photos, very little else, but it could use the Multi for the photos long term. About to install Windows 7 for continued use indefinitely.
Drive comes with Thinkpad install CD with now dated software, (Multimedia Center 9.05 and such as WinDVD 5.0.11). It is probably Vista based since produced in 2008. I guess all the necessary drivers for install are on there as well.
QUESTION: Should I risk installing this with the CD after the upgrade to Win 7? If not, would the necessary drivers be on TVSU ? I have not been able to track down anything for Win 7 except for a special instance of particular installs on specific computers, not the T60 unfortuantely. It seems like it should be eligible as the cost of buying this as an accessory included the install software with the special third party programs, like the WinDVD.
Thanks for any help you could offer on this.

Hello,
Generally speaking, any software that works under Microsoft Windows Vista is going to work fine under Microsoft Windows 7 as well. The few kinds of programs that do not are ones that make use of filter drivers, such as anti-malware software, some kinds of encryption software, tape backup software and other programs which directly access to hardware. In those cases, you do have to install the correct version of the program that works with that version of the operating system.
As far as DVD software goes, though, I don't think you will have any problems. I am not sure, though, if ThinkVantage System Update will see the updates for them (or if there are any, for that matter). If it does not, you will need to search Lenovo's support web site for the updates.
If you are concerned, you can always do a backup before installing the software onto the computer.

Aryeh Goretsky

Need new battery and DVD burner for T61

Hi,
I need a new battery. Old one has totally died and won't hold a charge.
The burner is a different story. Sometimes it will read discs other times it won't read at all, so I'm thinking it's on its way out. Can someone supply correct part numbers? Do you need the current part numbers of the parts that I have?
Thx
Mark

Hi Mark,
if you have a 14.1" 4:3 standard screen or 15.4" T61, you will need the T60 type battery now commonly referred to as battery 41+ 6-cell or 41++ 9-cell by Lenovo marketing. If you have a 14.1" widescreen T61, you will need battery 33 4-cell, 33+ 6-cell or 33++ 9-cell.
Here is a useful post with some detailed information I shared with someone else facing similar T61 DVD Burner issues: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T61-and-prior-T-series-ThinkPad/optical-drive/m-p/1077041#M67668. As for part numbers, you will some listed in T61 System Service parts here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-67911#16. I.B.M./Lenovo loves to use many different part numbers for the same component based on the different manufacturers and different Thinkpad models. But basically, what you need is the Ultrabay Slim (PATA) type DVD Multi-Burner which fits T61, R61, T60, x60 dock, x61 dock, etc.: ThinkPad DVD Ultrabay Slim Burner - Overview.
If you need, I have all of these parts available, including New and used Genuine Lenovo T61 batteries and DVD Burners at terrific prices. I have sent you a PM with more info. Check you "New" messages at the top of this page
Have a great day. (I do not work for Lenovo)

When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message "The registry settings used by the I tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software Please reinstall

When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message:
"The registry settings used by the I Tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing.
This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please re-install I Tunes."
To my knowledge no new software has been installed. I have tried un-installing and re-installing I Tunes but I still
get the same message.
Can anyone offer any suggestions? Do I need to download a new driver?
Bill Martin

I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.

Firmware update on DVD Multi Burner gone bad

Hi all,
I just downloaded and tried to update the ODD in my T510, but during the update it just went "FAILED" (despite I followed the instructions to the letter) - and now the ODD is lighting up as a christmas tree all the time. The thinkpad can still detect the drive, so I can reflash the unit, but there is 3 possible firmware files - which one is the correct one?
Firmware
Quote:
GT30N LT10 Serial Ultrabay Enhanced
GT30N LG10 ThinkPad SL410, SL510, L412, L512
GT30N LE10 ThinkPad Egde 14", 15", E40, E50
Now - is it the LT10, LG10 or LE10 I need to reflash with?
I know for a fact that the unit is the GT30N, pulled it out and confirmed it (also the device manager says it is)
The lenovo update utility does not provide me the option anymore to flash the unit sadly.

How do i burn an audio dvd in my thinkpad x-201 with ulthinkpad trabase and dvd/cd burner/ player

hello,,
would someone please point me to directions about how to burn a dvd audio disc. i've looked at various lenovo sites, but no luck [i don't even know the how-to basics, so pls excuse my ignorance]. there doesn't appear to be any application/program for burning dvds and cds on this machine.
using windows xp pro, sp3, thinkpad x-201 with x200 ultrabase and dvd/cd burner/ player
thank you.

hi, thanks for your earlier reply. here's a clarification of my question:
i have a cd with music from an album mix. because a cd lacks enough space to copy the entire album, i would like to burn it on a dvd, which has more than enough space.
do i simply copy the cd into windows media player's library, and then burn it from media player to a dvd?
or, is there a cd/dvd burner available from some manufacturers? i seem to recall roxio or nero as software that will give me what i want.
my lenovo x201 thinkpad rests on an ultrabase that has dvd/cd burners.
i am so confused.
again, thanks for replying.

Which hard drives are compatible with the Ultrabase Series 3?

Hello,
I recently purchases a ThinkPad X220 Laptop. I'm looking at picking up an Ultrabase Series 3 dock, but I'm a bit confused about which hard drives can fit into the dock. Can any 2.5" SATA drive work? Does the dock come with an adapter for the drive to fit in the bay?
Thank you for your help.

Sorry I pushed the wrong button by mistake.

DVD Multi-Burner

I have never used the DVD multi-burner in my T61p to store or backup data on a DVD. Was a utility program or software provided with the pc that does this? The device does not seem to recognize a new DVD-R disk when I put it in the drive. Did basic software to utilize this device come with the machine that I may not recognize or may not have installed? If so, what is it called and can it be downloaded from the support site? I must be missing something obvious. Thanks for any help.
