Title: NEC DVD+RW ND-5100A ------- Not Working
Post by: pwbtech on April 05, 2008, 08:23:48 AM

Stopped working all of a sudden.
It will not run any cd's or DVD's.
Makes a ticking sound as if it is trying, but nothing happens.
CD or DVD is not acknowledged under My Computer.

Have searched forums for answers and found out that this is a known issue with this hardware, but unfortunately my warranty has expired.

I need to install the software for new hardware (modem).

Does anyone know if there is a way i can do this immediately (maybe setting up some sort of network with another comp) or something.

I will buy a new one soon but i need to install this modem immediately.

Any ideas welcome. Thank you.

Put the modem drivers on a flash drive and install them from there...
