Help/Firmware for PHILIPS CDRW/DVD CDD5263

Hi I have a DELL Inspiron 1200 labtop and im having issues burning CD/DVDs. But I can Read/Play CD/DVDs just not able to burn CDR/RW.

Windows Reconizes my cd drive as a PHILIPS CDRW/DVD CDD5263 UD91 but the firmware says the Philips drive is actually a "QSI CDRW/DVD SBW242C" (SBW242U) (according to the internal identification), firmware version identifies as UD91.

Does anyone know of the latest stable firmware or fix so i can successfully burn without any problems?

Other than that my labtop runs great!

With no spyware/virus/rootkit AviraPersonal and Up to date

Burning Software: InfraRecorder Latest Stable Version

OS: Windows XP Home Service Pack 3 Version 5.1.2600 With the very latest updates/drivers/bios

 

PS: Thanks a bunch for any help or suggestions you may have

The Philips CDD5263 CDRW/DVD-ROM Drive.  It should read CD and DVD media, but
should only write to CD media.  It cannot write to DVD media.  Can you be more
specific about what happens when you try to buen a CD?  What burning software
are you using?  How are you trying to burn the disc?

Hey SkyBird thanks for the ur willingness to help but i finally managed to get the drive working with the original firmware for it

i found here http://forum.rpc1.org/viewtopic.php?t=30378 so apparently my firmware some sort of bug.

Works like it should now and by the way i'm now using ImgBurn-v2.5.0.0

So the solution for me was to ReFlash the drives original firmware to UD91 and a burning application that supported all of my drives features.
