    Toshiba satellite L305-s5933 DVD drive not opening

    I have Toshiba satellite L305-s593 laptop. Since last week I have been experiencing problem with the DVD drive of my laptop. When the laptop is started it responds normal, but after an hour it fails to respond. It does not open or responds to eject button. I tried ejecting with commands in Windows, but still it did not work. Can anybody help me; I have loads of discs to work on.

    Such type of problem occurs when someone has tried to clean the internals of a disc drive without any professional procedure. It may also happen if DVD drive was forced open. Another reason can be mismatch of configuration with operating system, that is, mismatched drivers or mismatched compatibility with O.S. specified requirements.

    This problem might occur if one has not installed AHCI/PCIIDE patch. AHCI/PCIIDE patch are included along with driver files. They are installed when one installs drivers for DVD drive. You can reinstall/repair drivers for DVD drive. SATA devices in Windows 7 are supported in natively AHCI mode. Toshiba laptops need to have registry patch to work efficiently in long run.
