AndyL Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 Hi , recently I tried burning 2-3 avi files to a DL 8.5 Verbatim and When I stick the disc in the drive I'm told to insert a writable disc and the disc is new , and other discs and not working either . I downloaded IMGburn to find my firmware version and serial number and told to go to firmwarehq.com and the firmware I need is not listed for my drive. Samsung TS-H652L The following files are available for download for the drive: Samsung TS-H652LVersion Date FilenameSC01 3rd April, 2007 TS-H652L_SC01.exe0803 27th October, 2006 sp26842.exeSC00 17th March, 2006 TS-H652L_SC00.bin These are the only files listed and not one of them is 0603 that happens to be my firmware version . Does it look like I need to find another site or get another burner ?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 You want the next version up... so if yours is 0603, you'd want 0803. I doubt the firmware will fix your drive not functioning properly. Try cleaning it with a cleaning disc - or manually if you're feeling brave.
AndyL Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 The firmware didn't work or cleaning my drive . I even downloaded and installed a free app from the piratebay and installed every update I can think of and the drive still won't work . Unless there are any other ideas , I'm gonna take it to my local computer shop .
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 Yeah, take it to them and get them to fit you a new one.
