Hi NvidiaDude...

Try turning your burn speed down...some media just won't take the high speeds even if they state they can. Try 16X and if that works, gradually work your way up until it fails and set your speed accordingly. Worked for me!

Everything I'm finding says that XP's default drivers are all that are required for that drive. HP lists a Firmware Update, but does not list your drive specifically. Lite on shows a few Drivers available, but again, your drive is not specifically addressed.

Have you tried updating your drivers through the Device Manager. I have even gone so far as to remove the drive in Device Manager so it would detect and reinstall on restart.

I would try the latter suggestions before installing drivers that may or may not be correct for your drive.

Shall i install that Firmware then or not

[NvidiaDude]

wannabe i installed that firmware and said this: Yours System is not configured with this drive It does not need to be updated
