dirtwarrior Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I burnt a lot of dvd's here lately and had no problems with them. Now the drive wont see that I have an empty dvd in the drive. Playback of rented dvd's are fine. Using nero after I add all my data (backing up HD for format) Nero says to put in an empty dvd I already gtt one in there. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling nero. What could be wrong and what else do I need to try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtwarrior Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 Disregard, I flashed it with aftermarket firmware and killed it. Unless there is a way to get the bad firmware off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptMurphy Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I always assumed that whenever the firmware gets hosed, the whole hardware is hosed. However, I have heard of some manufacturers having rollback utilities. I couldn't give you any guarantees though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03GrandAmGT Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Hey DW, You do realize you purchased a SATA card and then IDE drives.jd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtwarrior Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 It was basically free so I got it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 lol, nice catch. that would have sucked to have finally received the hard drive, and to have it be ide...then to get the sata versions you would need to waste money shipping it back.
