will your pc read the disc or can you burn a music cd can you play the movie and watch the movie on your pc
@pirateotc Did you flash you dvd writer with new firmware? What brand of media and the Speed of media are you using? If it's 16x your drive will probably not recognize it! Find an old blank 4X or 8X and see if it can read those blanks. With the drives being so cheap now get yourself a new drive for Xmas, IF you can't update the firmware.
Maybe you need to reflash your drive and even get an older firmware that works. If that does not work it may mean the drive is dead.
Can somebody help me figure out how to install the firmware please? I have it downloaded, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to install it. And thanks so much for all the help so far! You're all great!
well, for my "Nu-Tech" Burner..hehe laugh all you want ! It was an .exe file, i ran the .exe and it said "the flash warning" then you continue with that, then there will be a meter that will fill up or something, just make sure that you have NO media in your drive or anything when you flash it.
Hmmm, none of that happened for me. I keep trying to run it and it says there's a mismatch or something. I know my drive isn't dead because it runs stuff, so that isn't a problem. Should I try buying the -R discs? Or is it just a waste of time?
your drive will run stuff but the burning eye might be bad On flashing they tell you how to install it
OK thats what we need to know Go to the guides and read up on all the the ways you can burn the are very good they will help you setup your programs to burn Also try to learn how to burn something to a disc what burning program do you have installed
I've got lots of programs. DVD Shrink, DVD Decrypter, Sonic RecordNow... Ok, it's not as much as I thought but that's all the stuff I have.
@pirateotc Man you need to read up on some of this stuff and then start asking questions when you are at least able to understand what we are saying. Here are some free programs and guides to start you off.
