I have a sony DW-U14A DVD READ/WRITE DRIVE.
I took it out of my machine about a year ago and decided to put it back into another machine.
I bought it as and an OEM since I was putting it together and Sony does not support It.
I think it is the driver that I need and have had no luck finding it.
HELP

I found the DRU510A and downloaded it.
when I try to run it I get, the dynamic link library sendcom.dll could not be found in the specified path.
When I go to that location It says rev C and a red sign above the icon saying UPDATE
I am not sure what to do next.
 
When you unzip the files for the firmware update, ensure you have all of the files selected and unzipped. This error occurs when you unzip only 1 file.
 
I flashed the drive and now it is DRU510A REV C
It will not write.
It says to install the write software.
Is this software from sony or are they talking about Nero ?
 
What exactly are you trying to do? I guess, You are trying to write a DVD by using Nero . Right!

Did you tried another blank CD?
 
I want to write to the DVD and the message that came back that this is a rom driver, so I looked at the installation and it said to load the write software.
I have NTI DVD maker and figured that probably came with it.
I was expecting to see a sony disk for the writing.
I tried a few disks but it does not recognize a blank disk , it wants me to put a disk in it.
