110018 2002-12-30 23:12:00 I own a Mustek MRW-8432 CD writer.

After updating its firmware (FlashTool 3.1), the drive has problem detecting blank CDs. I ve tried several brands ... and none of them seems to go.

Ocassionally is will detect the blank when I put it in ... but most of the time it can't.

So, I am just hoping if anyone of you know where I can download a better/ working firmware for this CD writer thx : )

110019 2002-12-30 23:27:00 Why did you update the firmware in the first place? Chilling_Silence (9)
110020 2002-12-30 23:50:00 I agree - why'd you update the firmware to start with? Did you save a copy of the old firmware before your Flashed the drive?

Have you flashed a drive before? It is often said that flashing firmware should be left to expert/advanced users, and I tend to agree - it's a risky business :)

See if you have the option to roll back to your old firmware revision. Maybe the manufacturer has it on their site. kiwistag (2875)
