Re: Laptop DVD drive?

Welcome back to cdfreaks.

Little more information about current model and type of lappy/slim drive would make our guesses much easier.

BTW, please spare a few minutes reading posting guidelines.

Re: Laptop DVD drive?

The laptop model is Averatec 2155-EH. The current internal drive has broken (only reads for about half an hour at a time before it dies, makes it impossible to do things like install large programs, operating systems, watch movies, etc.). I believe it's a PHILIPS but I can't tell you exactly what model off the top of my head.

So, ideas?

No ideas what so ever.
Remove drive and read on label; you'll have to release the drive assembly and pul the unit out.

BTW, this forum might be of some help.

Re: Laptop DVD drive?

What does the original drive even matter? I have no interest in fixing it. Just want to put in a new one...

Suggestions please!
