    I have Packard Bell EasyNote E4710, Model MIT-LYN02, P/N: PB10C00006
    S/N: 208001850239, MID: 400335, bought in 2005.

    The DVD drive (NEC DVD+/-RW ND-6500A) is old and I cannot install a new DVD drive. BIOS (Insyde BIOS SCU 1.11) would not recognize another model and says "Secondary IDE disabled" whatever DVD I install. How can I install a new DVD?

    Please help.

    Another question: does anyone know how to contact Packard Bell technical support by e-mail?
