Overclockers AU have posted a guide with showing how to flash an LG 32X burner up to a 40X burner . A pleasant surprise for owners of this burner . Here's a clip from the guide: Would you like to transform your LG 32x10x40 CDRW into a 40x12x40? Of course you would . I did it to mine and it works like a charm . Burns 16x rated Akai CD's at 40x without a problem . Nero and other programs recognise the drive as the GCE8400B (40x LG drive), as does the BIOS . It's really easy to do and here is how to go about doing it yourself . . . . . . All you'll need is WinACE!
