Looking for HELP!

Insert empty disc to write to.
(Medium in drive: unknown. Medium required by compilation: DVD R/RW, DVD+R DL.)

The firmware update should help recognize the media.

PS please read the rules about bumping and double-posting!!!

Thanks I'll give it a try.

[blutach]

Please observe rule 14.



That post added nothing but simply to get attention (which you were already getting). On top of this, you opened another thread.

Now, before you do anything else, read the rules please!

People here give there time and knowledge freely, not because you pop up and demand it.

You have made a pretty inauspicious beginning to forum life here. Let's hope it gets a lot better.

Regards

[blutach]

@Gary D - if you see a rule breach, please use report a post instead of posting in the thread.

Regards

@chewy & 2 all
Thanks for the advice, applied the update and got a little response from my burner w/the led light and still nothing. I tried to backup a dvd and still the same outcome. Its saying that my device is not ready and still doesnt read any discs at all. I appreciate the help alot from all. Is there anything else I can do to get this working again. Thanks to all.

Can you try and drop the HP writer onto the IDE channel (is it a USB device?) and remove the old Toshiba DVD Rom.

DO an add/remove hardware on it - it is not being recognised in your SCSI device map for some reason.

Regards

[J.dubb]

@blutach
I'll give it try, and yes it's a USB device. Thanks for the advice.

[Chewy]

I would try the drive on another computer
