    Firmware Upgrades

    Not sure if I am posting this in the right forum, I apologize if I am not.

    I have an older LG DVD-ROM. Does anyone know if it's possible to upgrade the firmware on a DVD-ROM to make it capable of playing burned discs?

    I see no reason to even have the DVD-ROM in this box if I am not going to be able to read the burned discs with it.

          Thanks, that is awesome information! I am going to have to pull the drive out to find out what the model is...but I am pretty sure I can find the firmware on that site.

          Not sure if it will help my issue...but I'm going to keep my fingers crossed!

          If it does not, do you know of a good DVD-ROM that will read burned DVD's?

            couldn't find much on that model number but, read the reports on the link :
            Providing a surprisingly human shopping experience. Trusted and secure. Millions of domains to choose from.


            is this your drive ?
