Here is link for Dell drivers fro your NEC DVD. 

If you do note have a Dell, go to the home web page of youe brand and find Support and / or Downloads, and search for the driver there. 

This is usually a fairly simple process, if you have the model number of the PC

I had the same problem and found the answer here.Follow this link

Good luck

Hi,
see if its recognised in the Device Manager. Start/My computer/Control Panel/System/Device manager.
if so remove or uninstall the Drive.
Physically remove/eject the drive from the Computer. reboot then shutdown. re-insert the Drive. boot computer and see if it,s detected by the system or ( found new hardware Wizard )
re-install any drivers as requested. Installing SP3 shouldn,t do this. unless the drive was actually Virused Or failing already.

Mike @ compurepair.

I see that you are using a DVD+R disc...Some drives can only do + or -. Have you tried using a DVD-R disc? You could also check and see if there is a firmware update from the NEC website.

make sure your disc is a rewritable CDRW or DVRW

NEC DVD + - RW ND-6650A is supprot dual layer dvd. for more information u can use this link: NEC DVD + - RW ND-6650A

Thank for asking

I figured out what was causing the problem with my NEC 6500A on my Dell laptop: The Sony Picture Motion Browser software that I was using to burn DVD's is only compatible up to Service Pack 2 of Windows XP. The day after I installed Service Pack 3, the software stopped burning DVD's. So I uninstalled Service Pack 3, rebooted, unistalled the Sony PMB software, rebooted and re-installed the Sony PMB software and I can now burn DVD's again. So check whether the software you're burning your DVD's with is compatible with whatever version of your operating system you're operating with. Hope this helps someone else!

As DVD Burners are so cheap, it is much more economical to buy a new burner and install it (also much easier!).

To replace the burner - you open the case - disconnect the cables to the drive - remove 4 screws holding it in (2 on each side) - then slide it out the front. Rplacement is a reversal of teh above instructions.

BEWARE - Static electricity will kill ANY electronic component that gets zapped. Make sure you earth yorself before you touch anything inside the case and try to keep yourself earthed by keeping contact with your arms and the chassis - including when you remove and replace the cables!

Basically a very easy process to complete as long as you do not Zap anything.

Good luck.

Do a Google search using the following string

(Brand Name) (Model Number) +"region free"

Include the + sign (no space) and the quotes, this should either bring up a Firmware download or will give the codes to make your unit region free. Don't forget to look in the forums as these are probably the best source for the codes.

Good luck.

sounds like your dvd laser has failed if it reads other media as there are normaly 2 lasers one for reading cds and one for dvds try using a cleaning disc to clean the lenses

sony will know, call them...

Try burning at a slower speed, like 16x or less. If your burner is a CAV-type, it will burn faster as it moves toward the outside of the disk and can be more prone to errors that way.

Also, have you tried playing the burned disk in another player, and did it show the same symptoms?

ok " click on start , go to programs, go to system tools, click on
system restore , restore to a date before you installed Itunes.

if that doesn't work try click on start , click on settings, click on
control panel , click on system, in menue click on hardware,
click on device manager, click on dvd/cd-rom drives, your drive
should be there , click on drive with right button.and a menu will come up ,delete it .

now shut down windows , and restart your computer
windows will now will see your new drive, and you can reinstall it.

I have encountered this problem numerous times and, while I'm not sure of the exact cause, the remedy that works 90% of the time for me is to create a 1:1 solution of isopropyl alcohol & distilled water and to GENTLY brush the laser with a cotton swab tipped with this solution.  Afterwards, use the other side of the swab to completely dry off the laser, ensuring that absolutely no cotton fibers are left behind.  Good luck!

Hi, I think that it's a firmware issue. If the unit is till covered by warranty, you may have to bring it back for replacement. When doing so, it may be to your advantage to bring the PC while it is still attached and blank CDs and DVDs just to demonstrate the particular failure and likewise to be able to test if and when it would be replaced. If for some reason, you would want to try DIY, please look over these sites that you may have an idea. http://www.cdrinfo.com/forum/tm.asp?m=132275&mpage=1𠓝 http://liggydee.cdfreaks.com/page/6500/ Hope this be of some help and pls post again how things turn up. Good luck and kind regards.

If it's only 8 months old, then you have atleast 4 months left on your warranty. The problem will either be the ide controller channel or the dvd drive and firmware has faulted, the same fault probably happens when you have put a dvd in and it wont read or eject. Return to the place of purchase, where the drive should be replaced or the notebook exchanged.
