Depend on what you have in your system already. If your are replacing and existing drive simply remove it, and replace on the same IDE cable making sure the jumper is set to slave. Assuming you have one drive to the 0-IDE connector and the other connector is is to existing CD and this new drive is to be a second one. You will need another IDE ribbon cable. Set the drive to Master- connect the cale. position and fix the drive and plug the other end on the cable to the second IDE connector [Drive 01] See you mother board manual - connected a spere power connector.

Using your DVD-V4600, how do you play a vhs tape on TV? Need step by step instructions.

Hi,
In order to watch either DVD or VHS on your TV ,you need to make the following connections ..

You need to connect "DVD Player / VCR Combo" to" TV " as (Audio/video output of DVD Player / VCR Combo -TO- Audio/Video input of TV) ..

use either "RCA analog (red/white +yellow ) " or "SCART "or "Optic " cable.(any standard optical cable )...if exist ,optic is the best way to connect it..Remember your DVD Player / VCR Combo 's "OUT" goes into" IN "of the TV ..

pls also remember,wherever you connect your DVD Player / VCR Combo on your TV ,you should switch the source selector accordingly to correspond to the connection on the back...

Hope this helps!..if more help requires pls let me know.
Take care and please Remember to rate/vote and give me 4 Thumbs Up for me to continue for Helping out the Community :)

My samsung octo edge cd-rw/dvd-rom combo drive is not working properly.i am not able to write files on it.i think its driver should be reinstalled.so how can i re install the driver?

If you do not have a disk with drivers go to the manufacturers web site and look for support or downloads to get the divers. save them to a folder you create on the c drive or go the driversone.com and put the info of your drive in and it will direct you to drivers then save them to the folder. Next you go to system icon in contol panel and then to hardware then device manager. look for cd/dvd drives and choose your drive then right click on it either disable it or reinstall the driver. If this helps please reply as this helps me continue to answer questions here and good luck

I m using samsung octo edge dvd writer in nero i m unable to find write dvd option How can i write/burn dvd plz help!

To use "Burn DVD video files" in Nero, you have to switch on Advanced mode instead of standard.

In my version, this is what the bottom right corner of Nero StartSmart Essentials looks like in the two modes.

Samsung dvd rw with octo edge dvd rom says burning failed for dual layer disc

I will presume that you do not have a combo DVD.
If you have a "combo" drive, it doesn't burn any DVDs.

First, has the burner ever burned dual-layer DVD's successfully?
Radio Shack has a laser cleaner ($13). Read & follow the directions. It is an audio CD with a row of brushes. No chemicals involved.

Recommendation:
Use Verbatim DVD's, they are the best. Samsung is also a top brand.

Commonly when you say combo drive it is a cd writer and only dvd reader so you cant use that to burn a dvd disk.

Dvd rom detecting problem

You need to find what DVD reading and CD and also DVD burning software you had, then download versions of the programs compatible with Win 98--then they should work fine. Your CD/DVD drives will be ignored until you get the correct burning software installed. Go t Samsung, which hopefully will have the appropriate downloads for Win98. If Samsung no longer has what you need, find any software for Win98 such as Roxio, or hopefully freeware, and you should be back in business.

To anyone out there who reads this - I badly need an updated firmware for a Samsung SD608 DVD-ROM drive (DVD-Master 8E). If you can upload the file here for me to download, thanks - but if you can direct me to a site that allows free downloads (driver and firmware) for my device, thanks as well... I don't believe that you have to buy a newer drive just to replace one that can still be used. The drive I have is more than decade old and it still works - though the firmware issue can be frustrating but it still is okay... Please - anyone out there - share the file to get my drive working again...
