Pain_Man Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 New firmware upgrade for the DW1655. Naturally, it won't work for me (and DIP reports that the drive is not "microcode upgradeable" which I take to mean it can't be flashed--or am I wrong?). But for those it does work for, here's the url: http://support.benq.com/files/storage/Firm...DW1655/BCHB.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 DIP says that for mine too but that's just because thats what the drive reports. It CAN be flashed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Just flashed mine - thanks PM ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain_Man Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) If only it WOULD flash!! It would also be nice if I could know why it won't. I've tried everything I can think of...and nothing. The last thing left is plugging it into another PC and flashing it and then putting it back into my desktop. My grandfather would have called that "goin' 'round the mountain to piss next door" but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. I have to find out if my second desktop (a PIII 1000) is compatible with DW1655. DIP says that for mine too but that's just because thats what the drive reports. It CAN be flashed though. Edited May 18, 2006 by Pain_Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
