My TR1 has the UJDA745 DVD/CD-RW. I have a clean install of XP Pro with SP2

It reads CDRs and burns them fine, but it does not read DVD’s reliably. I can be watching a DVD and then later it will not play the same DVD.

Any suggestions? Is it a driver/firmware?? or is it the disc player.

Thanks

the lens may be dirty.. 

Tried that. Still not reading DVD’s.

Any other ideas??

i’ve recently been having the same problem with my tr5mp :?

one minute it’l read the disk fine, the next it wont recognise that its in the drive :?:

does anyone have any ideas to help?  :(

:( My TR1MP which has been happily supporting me for quite a while now doesn’t read DVD’s ... whether data or movies. CD’s fine. Any ideas / suggestions… usual things tried latest firmware / drivers etc. running XP SP2.

Hi, I recently had the same problem, sent the machine into Sony and they had to replace the drive, they did it for free so I cannot complain, but I would avoid doing the firmware, as it seems not 100% stable. All I did to my machine was apply K103 Firmware update, then wouldn’t work.

All the best
