Question

pls can someone help with my matshita-dvd-ram-uj-850s-ata-device-driver.it doesn't read my cd/dvd and telling me error 39.thank u in advance

J-Train · Accepted Answer

I had the same problem, I went into device manager and vista had an exclamation point on my cd rom drive.  I am a Cis/Networker and I like challenges but this was upsetting me.  I finally swallowed my pride and called Toshiba they ended up sending me to this site. 

Goto this with a ton of discretion - my pc is a Toshiba Satellite A205-s5000 
www.tinyurl.com/toshibadvd 

This fixed my cd-rom - everything works now 
The dvd/cd rom I have is Matshita Dvd-ram UJ-850S ATA Device - if you do not have this cd-rom or a Toshiba A205-S5000 I strongly discourage you from going to this and calling your provider.  

Enter that site at your own risk - it is a registry fix

Please I do need to be helped out as soon as possible.

My Matshita-DVD-RAM-UJ-850S cannot be recognized completely. Can you help us?

ignatius · Answer

After spending over 8 hours last weekend doing all the fixes imaginable (deleting registries, etc.), I went on a search to buy a new drive.  I have a Vaio VGN-fe880.  This was an incredible chore.  Sony wanted $470 for a replacement, piss me off.  I finally found one at a place called Pell electronics for about $200.  And supposedly it's fitted for my Vaio model.  You have to be careful about the bezel and bit end to fit the side of your laptop.  It came in the mail but I'm on the road so can't test it yet.  

Needless to say I'm fairly hacked off about this.  The computer is only a year and a half old.

Kotex · Answer

mindscape · Answer

MUCH THANKS FOR THIS INVALUABLE INFORMATION!!!

I am running Windows Vista Ultimate on a VGN-AR350E SONY VAIO laptop. Since this post was provided with a use at your own risk disclaimer for laptops other than Toshiba, I backed up the entries that my system had before executing the reg fix.

My system only had the following 2 of the total entries in the fix so I backed them up first to be safe:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}]
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdralw2k]

I removed the device in device manager, executed your fix and re-scanned for the device. All is well now.
So I can affirm that this fix is also applicable for the SONY VGN-AR350E laptops that have the matshita dvd-ram uj-850s dvd-rom installed also.

I'd tried everything including downloading and installing the shared components from the sony site and any downloads that were applicable to my model without any success. I thought I was going to have to dish out some bucks to fix this but your post is a Godsend.

THX and be blessed.

Thanx for the site j-train, I really appreciate it.  Been having a similar problem with my Acer Aspire 3684, running vista home basic.  Followed the link and was using my dvd again in about 2 minutes flat.

vin234 · Answer

Is this registry fix the same as going through regedit, system, controlset, classs and deleting upperfilters or lower filers?
and does the drive write cd or dvd after the fix?

raymundvaj · Answer

I wonder. Why do I have to always use the .reg file?  The problem keeps on repeating.  My OS is vista.  Please help. Thanks.

vignesh · Answer

Thanks so much to whoever posted that link, it worked like a charm on my VAIO VGN-N365E, all I had to do was disable and reenable it, and now it actually works! Thanks so much!

tommievaughn@yahoo.com · Answer

I had ran some utility programs such as duplicate finder and others like cc cleaner and these programs worked great, however, I had managed someway to delete my drivers that control my Mashita DVD drive. I wanted to say thank you to J Train because when I found your post I typed in the url and immediately the installer came up. Of course I was hesitant but decided to trust it since I am computer savy and this did work on my Tosiba Qosmio gv-35-600. Thanks to the highest...

BULLDOG · Answer

ive had this problem since I bought my vaio and their tech support wasnt any help...seems the problem only exists when I install itunes and even their site was no help...........try cdgone.com and download and install the patch.....my vaio hasnt had a problem since I downloaded this patch

SomeRandom d00d · Answer

Hey, I had a friend have have the same exact problem, but with a slightly different drive. I found this:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/314060/your-cd-or-dvd-drive-is-not-recognized-by-windows-or-other-programs

it worked!

Basically, the problem is that the registry is corrupted. You'll need to delete specific parts as outlined in that article.

Just make sure to first back up your registry either using the built in System Restore or through another means (I used the freeware CCleaner to back up my registry).

If anyone was having any trouble trying to launch the Registry Editor, press these keys (windows+r) and a box will pop up in the lower left corner. Type in "regedit" without the quotes and boom, Registry Editor is opened!

The rest of the directions are in the article.

JohnC · Answer

I've a Sony Vaio VGN FE880E using a Matshita UJ-850S DVD burner drive. I used to be able to burn CDs and DVDs.

Not any more.

I can still read most CDs and DVDs. Except a few types, where it says  that the DVD is empty/blank/new and offers to burn something on it. But it refuses to burn anything... CDs, DVDs, of any brand or type.

I don't know exactly what caused it or when it happened (I rarely burn CDs and DVDs), but the approximate time is after my machine automatically upgraded to SP1 of Vista Home Premium.

Apparently, I have the latest driver software (see screenshot below):
[IMG]http://img164.imageshack.us/img164/5903/dvdhr0.jpg[/IMG]

I contacted Sony support and they gave me their stock response - restore to factory settings. I don't want to do that since it will destroy my carefully customized system (and it's no guarantee that the problem wasn't caused by Vista Home Premium SP1) and I'll have to reinstall years of stuff.

I've tried all the usual suggestions including:
* Delete upper and lower filters
* Delete the device from the device list and reinstall it
* Deleted all software that could've interfered with the driver
* The only DVD/CD burner on my system is now iTunes (hence the GEAR driver)

Has anyone else faced this problem? And found a solution?

Does anyone have a working version of this drive (one that also burns DVDs)? If so, could you please post/send your driver settings? What are the driver files that work including version numbers and locations?

Thanks in advance.

ivan · Answer

Am I the only one this fix still isn't working for?

I've got the same matshita-dvd-ram-uj-850s drive as JTrain/everybody else, running VISTA, but with an Acer Aspire 5100.  Seems like a few others with acers were able to get it to work.

My problems started out as the drive not showing up under "Computer", then randomly it would show up if I restarted with a CD in the drive, and sometimes at random I can view a data file, but not open anything.  It's been a while since I could open or view anything on the drive.  Since this problem started I haven't been able to run any executable files off of CD's at all.

I tried JTrain's fix--uninstalled the drive, then ran the cdgone registry fix, restarted and the drive reinstalled, but it still doesn't open.  Tried just disable, then cdgone, then enable, still doesn't work.

I tried the manual fix of deleting upper and lower filters in the registry, but they weren't there!

I was exasperated before, now that my problems didn't end in 2 minutes like everybody else, I don't know what else to do!


Please help,
Thanks in advance.

Ashdowg · Answer

I am having the same problem as well. I have a Toshiba Satellite with a Matshita DVD-Ram UJ-8505S. I've tried all of the above to some how have my laptop recognize the DVD player but it will not. I tried the reinstalling, and the manually editing the registry. But for some reason my laptop with Vista still doesn't want to see the DVD drive. How is everyone else able to fix theirs in seconds and I've been on this damn thing for a month now looking for a fix. Someone please help!

Thank you very much for that link. I do not understand why, but it worked. 
My model is Toshiba Equium M50-192 and DVD-RAM Matshita UJ-841S. Code of mistake was 39. 
I just uninstalled  the driver, then downloaded and activated the file, installed driver and restarted the PC. Everything seems to be ok now.
Thanks!

jaybird · Answer

I have a Dell M1330 and for an unknown reason, my DVD drive (Matsashita UJ-857G) was reported by the system as having a "code 19" error, corrupted registry entry. I uninstalled and let the system reinstall it, ran the troubleshooter, and my operating system (Windows 7 build 7100 RC) still wouldn't recognize it.

I went to this webpage:
http://www.pchell.com/hardware/cd_drive_error_code_39.shtml

I followed the instructions by deleting any upper or lower filter entries, which turned out to be a single registry entry, and rebooted.

Presto! It works again. So easy when you know what to do!

BuBu · Answer

Can't say as I didn't try. The drive still won't recognize R/W disks. +R/W, -R/W, New, Used, Erased, Not erased, ones Burned in the Unit before. It's got to be something M$ because both of my Toshiba Machines (XP/Pro and Vista Ulltimate) won't do an RW anymore. Dell's are working fine.

But Thanks anyway.

Had the same problem on Toshiba Satellite u305.  The Regedit/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}  solution did not work.   However, turning off PC and removing the battery temporarily DID work.

i have some similar issues. I went to toshiba site and upgrade some win7 apps they had on this page: http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows7/download/Satellite_L300_32_au.htm

and now all is good!

hope this helps

Shezza · Answer

I had a similar problem when I upgraded my Toshiba Satellite A300 from Vista to Win 7.
Now fixed - read on!
I uninstalled the device and then reinstalled and win 7 says was is successfully installed. Then I rebooted, just in case that made a difference.
But it still doesn't work.
Today I searched further on the web.  Several blogs had people reporting a similar problem and the answers suggested it is a registry problem, although the way to fix it looked a bit too techo for me to tackle!

I searched the Toshiba sites (which are a minefield) and eventually found a page that has a list of items to reload after upgrading to win 7 - specifically for the A300 32 bit.
I noticed there was a registry patch for printers and devices.  Aha.
Downloaded it and ran the .exe.
Rebooted.  Presto - it works!

The link is www.isd.toshiba.com.au/support
Downloads
Enter exact details of your computer in the boxes on the right hand side.
Submit
To the left of the boxes just entered there is written in red  "for windows 7 drivers click here"
On the left hand side again you need to select your computer model - Satellite A300.
Then you finally get the list.  Download and run the patch for printers and devices.
The rather funny thing is that they are not all drivers - however, lets not be too picky - at least it fixed my problem :-)

skeeter · Answer

NO NEED TO EDIT REGISTRY, ITS DANGEROUS

Go to https://support.microsoft.com/fixit#tab0
Be sure and follow the instructions carefully. When it asks for a disc, put in a disc with something on it for the "READ" part of it and a BLANK DISK for the "write" part of it. This will resolve ALL OF YOUR DVD R/W ISSUES.

Ryan · Answer

I can't find the solutions that so many others here seem to have had work for them.  Where is the post by j-train and some others?  I don't see any of them.  All I see is a bunch of people saying that these fixes worked, and then a carpet bombing of spam from skeeter.  I tried doing what he suggested using the Microsoft Fix It program- it didn't work.

I have a Toshiba Satellite U405 and the Matsushita DVD-RAM that everyone is having so many issues with.  I tried manually uninstalling drivers, manually deleting drivers (it won't let me delete the CD-ROM one, it says I need permission- that always ticks me off and is so unheplful- who am I supposed to get permission from to alter MY computer?).  I tried deleting upper and lower filters in regedit.  I tried restarting the computer multiple times.  When it scans for new drivers, it either tells me that it was unsuccessful, or (more often) it tells me that I already have updated CD-ROM drivers and so does nothing- but I still have the problem.

It seems to have started the other day when I tried to set up a wireless LAN network in my house.  Ever since then the DVD-ROM drive will not show up in "My Computer," or using any program.  It still has power, it just is undetectable.
