DVD drive software

[mkr10001]

Does anyone know where I can find the latest software for a

TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633M ATA Device


cd drive


I'm trying to burn a CD but imgburn says no devices detected and in device manager it says

A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality. (Code 32)


Cheers

This might help:
Automatically Update Tsstcorp Drivers

Worth having a look but I don't know if there is a charge for the service!
Completing your system specs might help us more!

Thanks but it does want to charge me. I can't find anything useful about this driver on the internet.

tried uninstalling in device manager then restart but doesn't find it.

This drive doesn't happen to be in a hp laptop by any chance? Good luck getting a firmware update from them then, lol.

It seems many people are having trouble with that drive - something about ahci driver compatibility was mentioned on a couple of forums.

Just a hint - you can sometimes find hard to get toshiba drivers from some of their asian sites. Takes a bit of searching though.

serialata.org lists that drive as equivalent (I think) to the samsung SN-S083M. Maybe searching for that will get you somewhere. Be careful flashing "off-brand" f/w though.

I asked on the HP forums and one guy was helping me.

TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633M ATA drivers needed - HP Support Forum

I'm going to try and borrow a drive off someone. Although it seems I have to take the whole laptop apart to take it out, it doesn't just pop out

Good luck with that me. lol

And yes it's an HP one lol

I guess flashing it with samsung can't do any more harm if I'm going to have to replace it anyway

 

[mitchell65]

Silly question really but, How old is the laptop?

i had this issue a while ago and this fix HERE helped

That is probably what your looking for. The driver is probably with the Lightscribe software.
That is the way my HP's were set up.

Baaah it's just the lightscribe software no drivers or anything.

I've just installed Imgburn on my XP on Virtual Box and it sees the DVD Drive.....


So........what does this mean ? lol

 

[Hopalong X]

Have you tried uninstalling the drivers and then running the Compaq search to refind the drivers?
Just making suggestions.
I guess I was lucky on my HP's always found what I needed.

I suppose you already tried the below.

Yeah I tried all that.

Windows doesn't find anything to install it but device manager says it already has the latest version.

conflicting info

Maybe the Lightscribe software is messed up.
Delete Lightscribe software you have and download the new from Compaq.?
That might be it.

Open software and multimedia tab bottom of the list. Then top of new list is lighscribe

 

[mkr10001]

Yeah that was the one I just installed. I didn't have it on here already because I never installed after I put windows 7 on it.
