I found this website and openboard by http://www.5starsupport.com/xp-faq/1-95.htm typing in my problem on google, and i saw that sometime last year someone really found some solid help with fixing their dvd drive. I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop that i bought in 2003, and for the past 6 months have had extreme difficulty with my DVD drive. It won't read any CD's or DVD's at all and keeps saying that the "request could not be performed due to http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/need-assistance-in-fixing-i-o-device-error-with-dvd-drive.45984/ I/O device error." Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I was reading that someone else was able to fix it by doing something called "regenit" in the "run" folder. I'm an aid worker in Pakistan and in desperate need of help as my work depends on this drive. Thanks. Mar 13, 2006 #1 ovvn.you TS Rookie Posts: 98 did my best to find your fix man, hope it works 1.

ago when I bumped the door. Under properties, it says "Location: Location 0 (0)" and "Device Status: This device is working properly." I have gone to recommended links, downloaded http://www.ozzu.com/hardware/device-error-with-dvd-writable-drive-t64969.html from Microsoft, pulled drive out, uninstalled it, reinstalled it, put it back in ... even tried to open it thinking what do I have to lose if I have to go buy a https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/fabeef5e-21da-4955-87b0-b879dba380a4/io-error-message?forum=itproxpsp new one anyway. It still doesn't work. Error message I get: "D:\ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error." I've called Toshiba (I'm out of warranty) io error and they did not know what to do. They referred me to a service center who said they'd have to configure some stuff probably but it would take three weeks before they'd get to me. I'm in the middle of a project so can't be w/o laptop for 3 weeks. I tried setting up an appointment in three weeks, but they wouldn't bit. I emailed Panasonic, but drive io error they said they are one of several OEM providers for Toshiba's internal dvd drive. I researched Microsoft ... ect. It seems there are configurations that need to be done to the drive itself and supposedly, per Toshiba, I can't do them ... only an authorized dealer. I noticed that an unusal amount of people seem to have experienced my same problem. Anyone ever get a resolve on their own ... or should I just stop the research and take it to a dealer some months from now when I am able to be w/o my computer? Thanks much for any help on this one. iambigjae Born Posts: 1 3+ Months Ago Was wondering if you have solved this issue or if you had to have a dealer do the repair work? I am having the same problem with a *plum* DVD-RAM UJ-840S in a toshiba satellite laptop. Don2007 Web Master Posts: 4923Loc: NY 3+ Months Ago You could buy a CD/DVD External USB drive.
