Re: USB DVD Writer problem
Did you check NEC's website for a driver?
Re: USB DVD Writer problem
NEC doesn't list drivers on the site and i've been searching for about 3 days for drivers online. No one has any and every site i visit doesn't say anything about the drivers but they do talk about the firmware, but i really don't think that that is the prob. People also talk about the housing, but i don't really know if that is it. I mean it could be that he bout a total pos. Anyway incase someone asks, i'm running XP SP2 with all current updates. Like i said this pos is supposed to be complete plug n play and i can't find any drivers for it

Did you try Windows Update when it's plugged in? Try drivers.com, also
Re: USB DVD Writer problem
From what I could find, it seems more like it's a problem with the drive enclosure than the drive. Try and find something that identifies the enclosure for the drive and look for drivers for that. I suspect you can also take the drive out of it's bay and install it as a regular drive, if you can, try that and make sure the drive isn't faulty.
This seems like a common problem when I searched, but no solutions.
