Please give model-specific info on upgrading firmware for the BenQ OEM 1620. I have doen the following: Run WinDWFlash firmware installed: B7T9.cvt and B7T9.rpc1.cvt from the Win98 desktop. This procedure went successfully. Is this the correct procedure and are there other things I need to know? Also, where would be the correct forum for a question on Nero OEM playback? I noticed that Nero audio player was not playing audio at the same levels from both channels.
Is your drive a DW BenQ 1620Pro? If it is you should not need a firmware upgrade. I think you need an operating system upgrade. Windows 98? Do you have the min requirments for the drive.
Mine was an OEM from Newegg. My 'test guy' advised that I should. I am still very green at this. Haven't tried to do a dvd burn yet. I'm worried about making coasters. I have 2 prog.s on here: Nero Express that came with the drive and I got the lated DVD Decrypter. Other things were pressing: backing up a dual boot of Simply Mepis and Win98. I have that under control now-- mostly.
