LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 If you've tried different media and are on the latest firmware, your drive is probably on its way out. Try cleaning the lens and perhaps think about returning the defective drive or buying a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drstratts Posted September 5, 2006 Author Share Posted September 5, 2006 Ifcrule1972 I have been remiss in not thanking you for the references pertaining to my 4164B which truly is a piece of junk. I soldiered on with it since your post but now it appears to have finally given up the ghost. Last night I spent a great deal of time with Dell getting them to replace a faulty monitor. Now I will have to go back to the well once more. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 4164B which truly is a piece of junk You simply got a bad one, or a bad controller or something. They are an excellent drive. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
