j0hnny_5 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 No matter what dvd media i put in my drive, it will not allow me to burn it at 2.4x. I need it to burn at such so speed to eliminate read errors. When i pop the same media into my girlfriends laptop it allows burning at 2.4x. the lowest it will let me burn is at 4x and it always results in read errors. Any help would be appreciated, ive tried finding another firmware, but no luck.

lmao2k Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Newer firmware ? http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/FIRMWARE/...ware-MO02.shtml EDIT:: Hmm, that newer firmware doesn't have any write speeds for that media in the firmware file. You could use MCSE and move the write speeds from another DL media to the S04, but there is no way to say if that would work. Get some decent media like verbs and this sort of thing isn't an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j0hnny_5 Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 tried firmware upgrade, says incompatible with my drive. My friend says its an OEM drive for gateway, so the toshiba samsung firmwares wont work, and even verbatim disks wont allow me to burn at 2.4 x and also still give me read errors. ill just shell out 50 bucks and get a better dvd+-r drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
