Nice I avoided computers like that for years !!

They certainly do mate try the NEC 4550 or 4551 !

!!!!

Happy Birthday fella !

Not yet, but apparently its fixed for the next release of DVDinfoPro whenever that may be....

Q. What does Mr Kipling do at night ? A. He fills tarts with cream !!!

Mmm I had a few of those with the non verb DL media...... Once I sort out an issue with DVDinfoPro not seeing the BenQ DW1655 I will be posting them all up........

Yeah we have savoury pies like Steak & Kidney Pie, Chicken & Mushroom Pie etc and sweet ones like Apple Pie or Apple & Blackberry Pie.... Oh there is also Pork Pie's - cold savoury pies !

It isn't ?? I thought my wife was one of the most holy people I knew...........

@Movie Junkie -

Would you really want more than 1 on a permanent basis anyway polo ??

You two are filthy pervs !!

Imagine if your drives weren't supported

Thanks again Shamus - what with the IP hider and now this.....

Bwahahahahaha

We do have them mate and I never see anyone like those being described above :&

Yeah chips are what you call "fries" db - usually Chips are a little fatter than fries though.... Pie & Chips is quite common in a lot of places I think....

Flash it mate - I just did !! I don't think the current version of DVDinfoPro is quite ready for this drive tho Can't scan with it yet but hopefully will be able to soon....

I think you have to use PgcEdit mate but I have never done it - I am gonna ask LUK! to help me with that....

Well my retail one has BCAB FW and that is BCDB so I would guess its the retail FW.........
