I found this There is no specific driver for this drive. You can use a generic driver, I've done it before but cannot recall the exact driver used. It was either a Teac or NEC driver. You must select the driver manually in the device manager and it seems like an odd selection but it does work. If I can locate any additional info I'll update this answer.

You need to update the dvd softwear. Check the default settings for playback of media,if it is set to windows media it won't work if you hav'nt installed the correct updates. Choose the Toshiba dvd player as the default player and it should work. If you prefer windows media then you can get the updated codecs from ' free-codecs.com ' Easier still,try uninstalling your windows media player and installing windows media 11, this will usually resolve the problem.

Go to Toshiba Support online and enter your model number under product support. Download the drivers for the dvd drive.
Follow instructions in this article & this article to update the drivers.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. If you need further assistance, please post back with a comment to this thread.

I had this problem for a LOONNGG time. I couldnt figure out what the heck was going on or why it was overheating. I almost resorted to buying a new computer, but thankfully I didnt. About 1am this morning it did it to me again. So i decided to clean the bottom and make sure it was clean. I cleaned it, and just out of curiousity, took apart the exhaust fan housing, and O. M. G. was there a TON of dust and junk in there. It took me about 45 minutes to clean it out thuroughly because I am not very computer savy when it comes to taking them apart and putting them back together correctly. But I would be my paycheck that if you took of your exaust fan housing, and then the individual covers for the fan and inspected the fans, and the exhaust ports themselves, you will find your problem. Since i cleaned it, it hasnt turned off once and the fans hardly run at all! I hope this helps guys!

Download the 8187b drivers from Realtek's site. You then need to go in and edit the .inf file to read like this:

;;****************************************************************************
;; IDs for 98SE/ME/2K/XP
;;****************************************************************************
[Realtek]
%RTL8187B.DeviceDesc% = RTL8187B.ndi, USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8197&REV_0200
%RTL8187B.DeviceDesc% = RTL8187B.ndi, USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8189&REV_0200

After the edit, install as usual from the device manager.

The error could be connected to the advanced system care. Have you uninstalled any protective software lately?
It would seem that as the computer is starting it is trying to load a program that is either corrupt or missing, generally a program like reg cleaner or other utility program.
If its a case you have removed a program, try installing it and see if that works.
Get another copy of the advanced sys care program and reinstall that.
If this doesn't work, get back to me.

I have a Satellite A135-S2356 that had the same problem. I tried the solution from PCTServices above and it worked great.

"Power unit off. Disconnect AC power. Remove battery. Remove the memory cover screw, memory cover and the memory modules. Peel back mylar from JOPEN1 solder pad. Short JOPEN1 solder pads for 30 seconds. Replace mylar. Replace memory modules. Replace battery. Power up unit. If all is well, replace memory cover and screw."
Just short the two little solder pads and it worked great! I thought I would have to send it back to the manufacture but I am back in buisness. Thanks for the help.

Effective Step by Step Process to Resolve Toshiba Scan File Storage Error:

1. Navigate to Domain Controller Security Policy using Administrative Tools.
2. Next, you need to choose Security Settings and thus click on Local Policies.
3. Open Security Option Folder and thus check its details pane.

You might be able to log in as the Administrator. On the logon screen press Ctrl+Alt+Del and hold. It will give you a window to input username and password. Type in "Administrator" and leave the password blank. If that doesn't work, you can try a couple other generic passwords. If that doesn't work either, you can try logging on as "Guest" in the same fashion.

If neither of those options work, you will most likely need to reinstall windows, but there is a way to save all your files before you do that.

use VLC it plays everything it even has extensions like subtitle downloader. VideoLAN Official page for VLC media player the Open Source video framework

hold down 4 + 8 + 9 + POWER and restart it. default is Admin 123456

This has some suggestions, but not totally successful. Your Windows Operating System should have drivers. https://forums.techguy.org/threads/solved-need-driver-for-toshiba-portable-drive.930929/ ..

Switch the SATA Data Cable to Fix HDD Slow. The other quick solution to fix a slow hard drive, especially for the hard drive that fails in a fast file transfer speed, is to switch the SATA data cable from the first to the last SATA port. Sometimes, it's a problem of a dusty or loose SATA cable that slows down your HDD.
