Firmware Update Sony DW-D56A CD/DVD+-RAM Drive
Hi forum!
Got a little problem, I need a firmware update for my SONY DVD-RAM drive DW-D56A (Original part of my DELL Inspiron 8600) but i can't find it anywhere, neither in the DELL databases nor on the Sony website (login with Sony Vaio serial number required)
I need this firmware to be able to burn Phillips DVD-R 8x discs at 8x speed.
For more information visit:
http://www.dvdhs.com (DVD-R highspeed consortium)
Does anybody know where to download or order this firmware?
(I already tried the PDS3 LiteOn firmware, it worked perfect but it didn't solve my problem)
Thanxx

I used this software for the flash : http://upload.cdfreaks.com/ftools/firmware.exe
and used the firmware from here : http://dhc014.rpc1.org/indexOEM.htm#SOSW-852S
DO NOT FORGET TO BACKUP your firmware first!
Also, the drive will show up in the explorer window as a "CD" drive, ignore it...
Hope this helps...
