I got the package and couldn't wait to get it installed. I opened the box, in the middle of all the packing popcorn was the DVD drive. I looked and I looked but there is no manual, no instructions, nothing but a packing list. Does the manual or instructions come in a different package? Or can I find it online and print it? Any help is appreciated, thanks.
im pretty sure u can find it online. most stuff ordered online is oem now days. u will want to find the pin settings and any software tools that go with this burner. by the way benq is a really good burner. which model did u get?
I got the DW 1650 bk. I have been looking, but I couldn't find anything on how to install it, so I already installed it myself. It appears to be working, but so far everything I have burned is in a CD folder, and it won't play in one of my DVD player. On the player in the bedroom, it does show CD folders, but the player in the livingroom says incorrect disc, and it won't show anything at all. I figure something may not be set just right in Nero. Maybe someone might could look at my lastest log. Any help is really appreciated.

I just bought that same burner about 3 weeks ago and I love it! I even got it in black too! Mine did'nt come with any manuals either but I did have to remove it to reset the jumpers to either slave/master but I can't remember which right now. Good luck! Allen
