Thanks for your concern. I spoke to tech support at dell and they could not help. I searched the message boards and found other Dellers looking for the same drive at no avail. I didn't get a very helpful response after directly contacting NEC. Used Googe & Alltheweb.com to search for drivers( and found out that Dell tech support was also searching the web to try and find the drivers!) I just bought a new Dell and plan on migrating the info over from my old (present) Dell and then reformat the hard drive of the old (present) computer. I will try to network the computers after that (first time trying to network) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Disk Storage" <storage@nectech.com> To: <Me> Sent: Monday, March 03, 2003 1:37 PM Subject: Re: [Prod Info]DV-5700A DVD-ROM Drivers > > > <me>, > > This is an ATAPI drive which means windows will see the drive and install the > proper driver for it automatically. > > You also need to get software that allows you to play DVDs.
