Need help from the geeky community: Advent 7011 Laptop
Hi all
I need to get my ancient Laptop up and running again so the missus can use it (honestly its for her). Its an Advent 7011.
Currently it has a problem with the CD drive, so I need to get a new one. According to the link below I need a
QSI SBW-161 DVD/CDRW
.

I can't seem to find one anywhere (knowing me I haven't looked hard enough). Could someone help? Is there a compatible version?

I don't know if the laptop is the same but certainly it looks like the same part code for the cd drive.
I would say buy it from there as they tend to get hard to find items.
now can you stop calling me a geek..... lol

Thought you would have been proud to be one! I certainly would be if I had a clue about anything.
Have managed to find a few sellers now through G.
Thanks again, your help is much appreciated.
