I want to install it in my coputer but dont I dont have a disk, what can I do?

There is no need to install any software before/after connecting the LiteOn device,
because Windows XP/Vista/7 already contain the necessary device-drivers.

So, just connect it, and restart Windows, and it will be ready-to-use.

Windows Media Player can be used to play DVD-movies,
and Windows has built-in software to write onto CD-recordable disks.

In that case the infrared laser - the one for the cd - is dead and this is unfixable.
Time for a new dvd-rw unit, it's just $30.

My DVD drive not working properly.when insert the dvd it coms empty.

i would try running a cd/dvd cleaning cd in it first. (availabe at most retail electronic stores)
then i would try downloading the latest firmware (software that programs the drive for cd/dvd formats) from your cd/dvd manufacturers website and installing it, making sure it is correct for your model cd/dvd hardware.
if it doesn't read ANY discs then it may need replacing and you can order it online for 40 bucks or less.
Regards

How can i use ltc-48161h dvd-rom without PC? i have cabels

You need to purchase a 5.25" external enclosure with the same connection type as your drive (which is IDE). You install your drive into that enclosure and then use the drive via USB. The enclosure will have all the cables you'll need. I recommend this one = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817145050

DVD problem

It could be a couple things...
#1. Over time, dust and deposits can accumulate on the laser that reads the disc. In many cases, DVD players with this problem can still read CDs. You could try a DVD laser cleaner, which is usually a disc that has a tiny brush glued onto it. Run the cleaning disc 2 or 3 times, and try it again. Try both CDs and DVDs, since CDs are easier to read than a DVD.
2. After a DVD player has been used for awhile, another common problem is that the laser in the DVD player becomes misaligned, inhibiting its ability to read DVDs. In many cases, DVD players with this problem will still be able to read a CD. I'd try a cleaning disc first, since the only way to fix this problem is to bring the unit to a service center for repair.
Let me know what happens after you get the DVD laser cleaner and run it. Hope this helps.
