Liteon 401s to 411s (help please.)

[jaycute]

I just bought my liteon burner (401s) and I just read a post on the forum that says it can’t burn dvd-r disks even though it says so on the box. The post says I should upgade to 401s but I tried to download from the link it provided but its dead. Can someone tell me where to find a good link and how to upgrade.

Thanks.

Proceed with caution...

In the instruction manual it says the drive can write to dvd-r/rw (only dual format drive).
On the box it says my model is 4x Dvd Dual Drive. Does this mean I don’t need to convert from 401s to 411s?

Thanks.

Your drive appears to support DVD+R, DVD+RW media.

have a look at this link for other peoples comments on your writer.

I made a mistake I have the 451s dual drive.

The 451s will write DVD-R/W as well as DVD+R/W with NO mod.
Have you even tried writing a -r, or do you mean you've just discovered that this thread is redundant because you have a different drive?

[jaycute]

Yeah I have just discovered that I have a different drive but I thank you all for the help.

Peace.

Cool! Isn't it nice to find out that you got more than you thought you paid for?
Cheers!
