I have red carefully every post i can find on the internet. MY NEC IS ALSO SICK! CAN'T READ DVD-R. When i insert full dvd-r, he thinks its a cd blank??? everything else is working fine. I found that nec 4550a can read dvd-r, but not in windows xp (i tried home, oem, retail, pro, sp1, sp2, and again sp2, sp1....
i have 6 diferent "xp's"... I am from Serbia, and xp, vista and wow game cost allways the same price ... 1$. I'M NOT KIDDING).
BUT MY NEC DVD 4550A WORK IN MS DOS !!!
OOOOOOOOOO YEAH, "MS DOS" I DON'T KNOW THE VERSION HAHAHAHA, nevermind, maybe 7.0 or 5.0 or 6.0.... (i kept some old cd-s with this os he he)
I tried at least 15 dvd-r that my nec wrote and other dvd-r from my friends (wrote by pioneer, lite-on...). everything is working PERFECTLY FINE
My friends what are we going to do with our drives working in DOS ???
By new or anybody know, what is causing the problem ???
So can anybody solve this "ata, nvidia chip, win xp, ide ata busmastering primary driver firmware $#$#%##@%" PROBLEM
