Thanks for your answer gonna check it right now . The only problem with the 240series is that it can't booktype DVD+R to DVD-ROM, else it would be perfect for me.
Do you or anyone else have any other suggestions for some other drives?
-
Thanks for your suggestion, this type of drives seems to fit me. The only problem is, it can't booktype? Cuz I didn't see any support for booktyping DVD+R. Do you have any experience with this? Can the drive booktype my DVD+R to DVD-ROM? So I can play the DVDs on my home DVD player(not my computers DVD player), since DVD-ROM seems to be more compatible with DVD players.
Thanks in advance

well nvm the drive is fucked up, do you have any suggestions for a new drive? I don't need those fancy HD, Blu ray burners since I won't be burning that type of DVDs in a LONG time . I just need a good burner that can burn movies, ps2 games and DVD in general well and it's firmware should update at least once a year and not like my gwa 4164B which the latest firmware update is from 3 years ago. Anybody any suggestions?
-
I tried the HP firmware and burned it on a CD but it wouldn't start up as I expected. I also tried the GSA 4166 firmware but it told me "model mismatched". I also tried going back to my old (1.05) firmware, so I downloaded it, but it also didn't work since it was a lower version than the firmware I have.
Is there no other way to revert back to firmware 1.05? I tried system restore to before I installed the 1.10 firmware from tdb site, but also.....didn't work :S.
The weird thing is that the drive only doesn't recognize empty DVD+-R(W). It does read already burnt dvds.
-
I tried the LG HL-DT-ST GWA-4164B firmware 1.10 from the dangerous brothers website but now it won't read any DVDs at all (several DVD+R, DVD-RW discs is what I tried). Now I am really screwed :S.
-
I already did that but it just gives me some topics about some guys wanting to go back to 4164 instead of 4166, I couldn't find any exact tutorials on how to upgrade the drive. That's why I asked if someone had a link for a tutorial. I really hope someone can help me with this drive, cuz now I can't even burn my movies with it .
Thanks in advance

It doesn't work, it says "Not detected target drive"
And when I click ok a new window comes up where I can choose my drive and there's also a big square with "OPEN" written in it and when I click it, it says "Model mismatched".
-
I see...So how can I crossflash my drive to GSA 4166B? You got a tutorial somewhere for that?
-
So my only options are either to crossflash it or get new firmware?
I found this firmware for my drive but one is for dell computers while the other is for HP computers. And since I got Acer wouldn't this screw up my computer? Or should I just try one of them and see how it goes?
-
What sort of machine did that drive come in (what make) ?
MCC-004-00 is 16x media and your drive is only listing 4x as a supported write speed - that would suggest a drive/firmware issue.
It came with my Acer brand PC, I also tought it was weird that the write speed was only 4x whereas the media is 16x.
I can burn ps2 ISO's fine though.

Hello everyone,
Today I tried burning a movie(.MDS) with dvd decrypter(which i just uninstalled) and it didn't work, so I tried burning with Imgburn which also didn't work. Now after having 3 failures with my Verbatim DVD+R's I wanna know why it's actually screwing up the burn process. I also tried burning with some DVD+RW's and failed but I don't got logs of those and I only got the log of my last burn with Imgburn and here it is, I hope someone can find the problem for me.
Thanks in advance
