![]() ![]() BluRays are now working on my XP Pro SP3 desktop BluRays are now working on my XP Pro SP3 desktop. Before the Toshiba driver, Windows gave the 'cannot read' error message. I found there was a UDF file system driver v. 5.1.2600.5512 from MS already on my device (name/location: C: Windows system32 dllcache udfs.sys and C: Windows system32 drivers udfs.sys), but it apparently it was not doing the job. Sep 28, 2018 UDF is a standard, current file format. If previous versions of Windows wrote these discs, Microsoft has a responsibility to ensure that current versions of Windows continue to. Microsoft really is not that interested in Microsoft system drivers it would appear.. Probably another imagined security threat. Right-clicking the.inf file and a left-click on 'install' was all that was needed to put it in. The file is predictably placed in C: Windows system32 drivers in case you need to delete it. Cannot seem to get the Toshiba driver to install I have followed the procedure that is described in the post. I see the system trying to install the thdudf.inf file, I wait a while and then reboot. When I go into the hardware manager and look at the driver it never changes from the old default windows one. Is there something that I am missing? I am running windows xp home with service pack 3. My drive is the Lg super multi blue (HL-DT-ST BDDVDRW UH12LS28) I bought this deive hoping to play blu ray disks on my dekstop computer and I am realy frustrated that it will not recognize and play blu ray disks. Thank you in advance. I was disappointed that the BD ISO mounter didn't work and then I did another search and found this thread. I installed the driver and it now works! You really should include this information with the installer for the MANY of us still using XP. I even installed the trial of PowerISO and it couldn't mount a BD even after I installed this driver. I wrote the vendor and was told that it didn't work with XP! Not only that, when I opened a BD ISO in the program to extract it, it needed to save it as another unknown format first, taking literally 3 hours. I aborted it and uninstalled the program. What a POS!!! Is there a way to get the bluray icon as well on XP? I have gone back to this issue after doing a recovery of XP Pro SP2. I am using a Toshiba PC. The executable in WinXp_UDF_2.50_Drivers.zip gives the familiar message that it can't be installed. I wonder if it is expecting HD DVD (which I don't have at all), which seems what this update was originally meant for. The executable in udf-pqg32-hd-xpmce-1003.zip did run and installs the UDF update. Also, there is a version difference between the downloads of the thdudf.sys file. The version in WinXJP_UDF_2.5_Drivers.zip that I downloaded via the link on this forum, is version 1.0.0.0. Udf-pqg32-hd-xpmce-1003.zip which I downloaded from this thread has 1003 in its name so assume it is 1.0.0.3, I didn't use the *.inf file directly for this executable. It isn't in the zip file. I found the thdudf.sys file by searching and it is version 1.0.0.3. I have a download of UDFReaderv25.zip from a while ago, I forget where I got it from, that has version 1.0.0.3 of the thdudf.sys file. I wonder if the uninstall file only works with version 1.0.0.0. I tried the Microsoft patch, and I agree with others that it is no good. I don't use my PC to play blurays generally. I had no trouble with the Toshiba UDF version before this present restore as far as I could tell. Imgburn and AnyDVD don't need UDF 2.50 installed. Cannot seem to get the Toshiba driver to install I have followed the procedure that is described in the post. I see the system trying to install the thdudf.inf file, I wait a while and then reboot.
