Unable to play DVDs on my Toshiba Satellite

Windows Media Player can play most CDs or DVDs but sometimes the format is not understood. The best all round free video player I have found is VLC which you can download at www.videolan.org

Check the Toshiba site for updated drivers for your dvd player. Also check the recall section for your particular model dvd player. They had several that were recalled.

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.

Hello,

As it gives the message that the drivers are not installed. I would recommend you to download the latest driver and install the same and your issue would be resolved.
I have given the link below where you can download the driver from.

Select Model to Download Driver.

Do Let me know what happens.
