But It's never all that simple, is it?

Okay first off, I know what firmware I need to download. (2100@2500 patch found here:http://tdb.rpc1.org/#ND2100A)

Then I need to install it. Simple enough. But when I run the .EXE, I get some kind of MS-DOS error and I can't update it. Any help?

Which one are you trying to flash though...stock or TDB? The TDB should include a flasher I believe.

Check out this site and scroll down to the comments section for ofbarea's feedback from Costa Rica,mentioning Dean & Liggy's:

There's a couple different NEC 2100A's. 1 being a Dell OEM drive and the other is the Fujitsu/Siemen's OEM drive-totally different firmware versions. Not sure if that'll have any affect on your particular drive and the the crossflashing.

If it helps any, this drive came built-in with my computer.

I tried installing it again earlier, but I got the same DOS error as earlier. What do I do to get rid of it?
