HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4522B Problem

No point trying to get it repaired mate. Removing and reinserting doesn't help. Its because, the only thing faulty now could be the lens. So its better of getting a new one instead.

no you will needa dvd-rw unit to burn dvd's cd-rw/dvd-rom will not burn a dvd being a dvd-rom

Try to open the device, and clean with some medicinal alcohol the lens of the drive, and clean the dust from it.
Assemble it and see if it works. In this cases there is a high opportunity for the client to make an upgrade and buy a DVD-RW

Download microsoft fixit from http://www.ziddu.com/download/6528022/MicrosoftFixit50027.msi.html and install it in your pc ,once its finished jst restart your pc and see it will work

The lens for reading dvd is busted and needs to be replaced that is why it no longer read dvd.

change the lens of DVD. its a common problem. due to over use.

In Summary; I have a Dell Dimension 8100 desktop computer. I only have a CD-ROM drive. The CD drive broke, so I bought and installed a CD/RW- DVD Combo Drive (Model # GCC-4522B). I need to know where to set the jumper on the back. The options are CS, SL, or MA. Currently is set to SL but it does not work. I do not get the drive symbol to display under My Computer icon. I thought it was jut plug in and play. Need help if there is something else I need to do. Any response is very much aprreciated. Thank You!
