Did you try the universal flasher? http://flashman.rpc1.org/Firmware/PIONEER/DVR-106D/OEM_Pioneer_DVR-106_UNIVERSAL_Flash_1.0.zip Jerry
hi yes i tried that last night! no good - doh....;-[ aslo found a fail-safe patcher at 000/00/000 's had drive letter G and now back to F i just dont get it? Thx all....
My problem was I was running ME the first time I tried to flash. Plus I was trying to convert my Memorex to read as a true Pioneer 106D. I had Xp so I finally upgraded to get the flash to work. To make sure nothing went wrong I disconnected my other extra drives leaving only the dvd hooked up. Didn't change the letter and it was (E) drive. The firmware found it without a problem. Guess I was lucky on both parts. I first had to change the name, then flash to unlock the drive. I read the instructions before about the letter change but it worked for me without that. Jerry
hi there yes this firmware thing is starting to get a real pain? theres not much left to try except what you say about take drives off and try. I have the pionneer on primary master on its own i thought it would be ok? as i have SATA raid HD's 2x maxtors so dont use eide channels for HD ide-1 primary master = pioneer 106 ide-1 secondary master = EMPTY ide-2 primary slave = liteon 52/24/52 ide-2 secondary slave = samsung dvd 48x/12x SATA-1 maxtor hd SATA-2 maxtor hd Thx - will keep on it!

Glad you got it working. I was thinking the Sata card was interfering. Your snap shot of the flash was normal looking up to the error. Guess you never know with this stuff. Later. Jerry
