Update firmware to 1.63 from here http://sony.storagesupport.com/node/7072 Although you are using good quality discs, slow your burn to 4X
i downloaded the file but it seems to be just a package of JPEG Images..i dont know if i did something wrong or is that just what it is.how do i update my driver?
maybe im not doing it right but i ended up with the same thing...image files.im not very computer saavy,but how am i supposed to use image files to update my drive??
Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on Agree.....the file required will then be ready for download.
yes i did this and it gave me a winrar file..when i unpacked it it was just image files.should i not unpack it and try to us it as a winrar file?im not sure how to do this.is there some sort of walk through for doing this?i downloaded the pdf file also but it was not very helpful...sorry to be a pain in the butt,but i really do appreciate the help..
yup few pics and a web link... all these show the process working and waht you see, like a guide need to find the file and the installer app... edit, found it http://sony.storagesupport.com/product/305#drivers to v1.63
thanks mr.rotery the sony drive check showed that the drivers are working fine..should i try to re-install nero and see if thats the problem? what can i use to clean all of the nero stuff off of my cpu,and is it better to install all of the nero stuff at once or should i do a custom install like i did before?it does take up a rather large amount of room though..but if you think its what i should do?
no did not put the firmwire in..should i do it even though it says that my drivers are working correctly?
