Philips DVD8810 firmware update

I have the AD21 but I need the update to 4D28.  I had updated several months ago, but something happened and now I have the AD21, which looks like it's a later version.  Ever since I got this AD21, my burner will only burn 2 DVDs, then I have to restart my computer to burn more.  HELP!!

    Hi MPolanow,

    Lets try just a couple things first: 1) verify that the drive in running in DMA mode (UDMA-2) and not PIO mode; click on the CD/RW link in my post and scroll to Section 15, articles 14 & 17.
    2) Reload the drivers and IDE controller; same CD/RW link Section 15, article 1; Section 20, article 3.

    If none of the above helps, let talk about the firmware. The only firmware Dell has to offer is the AD21. Is the 4D28 a Philips retail firmware or are you talking about the firmware that converts the 8801 to a BenQ 1650?
    If the latter, same CD/RW link, Section 5-1, article 7.
    (See the disclaimer)

    Best Regards!




    God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
    the good fortune to run into the ones I do and the eyesight to tell the
    difference.
