Looking for Firmware Update

[savesheep]

Hello!

 

I've been reading the forum and I see that people getting the L0 Setting Drive Capacity (or similar) error seem to fix it by either switching to verbatim discs or updating their drive firmware. My drive is a little bit on the old side but its branded as a Memorex DL4WRID2 - some other forum said it was a repackaged Lite-On SOHW-7663 (i think??)

 

I've done some searching myself and its almost as if it never existed. I'm also using Memorex DVD+R DL discs.

 

Here is my log

#1- for Dual LAyer burning, only use Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden blanks... read why --> Here!

 

#2- Looks like your Memorex DVD16+/-DL4RWlD2 is in fact a rebadged LiteOn SOHW-1673S...

....So try to install this latest LiteOn SOHW-1673S' firmware --> JS0D (25th October, 2005) --> found Here!

Thank you for that quick response! I downloaded the file and upon running it I get the following error:

 

Is there a specific way the firmware needs to be updated?

[eSkRo]

well then, only thing left to do is

 

#1- try for Dual LAyer burning, Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden blanks

 

#2- buy a new burner

I've never seen any Taiyo Yuden DL media.

Thanks for the help guys

Also use the latest ImgBurn because the one you have is older than Windows 7 itself.
