    Recently purchased the OEM model of the Sony DW-Q120A ... However, Sony won't support it since it's an OEMer ... I removed my old Sony (4x) CD burner, and replaced it with this ... both were hooked to a new CD burner (52x) ... however, now I cant get my computer to recognize either the 52X CD burner, nor the new Sony DVD burner. The old 4x burner and the new DVD burner were both set to master. I'm using Win 98 (yes, I know ... get out the vaccuum tubes ...). I can't seem to find working drivers anywhere. Any suggestions to get these 2 working would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry to say Oak, but Sony claims this unit is not compatible with Win 98. I too have seen a bunch of these on Ebay. My question to whether they would work on my W98 system has sadly been answered by your question here. Funny though how a search on Sony's USA site has nothing on this model finding info here on their international site.
