Could it be that I need to update the Firmware?

Right now when I run the detect Firmware tool I get:

Device: Sony DVD+-RW DW-Q58A Firmware Version: UDS1

I downloaded the zip file for Firmware Version: UYS2.

Can someone tell me 1: Is this the right file, and two - will it make a difference if I update the firmware in this case?

I don't want to destroy my DVD R recorder by flashing with the wrong firmware.

Your help is appreciated

**LT. Columbo** · 15 Feb 2006, 02:32 PM

post the nero log....takes 30 seconds.....in the mean time install that firmware. it's the correct one.

Do you see anything?

**samtheminuteman** · 16 Feb 2006, 05:16 PM

could it be that i need new firmware? can you see an issue in the nero log? anybody?

**benbryant** · 16 Feb 2006, 05:47 PM

The only firmware available for Sony DW-Q58A is version YUS2. But you said that you couldn't flash it due to "No matched drive detected". It's strange though. Please try again from the link below for YUS2 hopefully to have better result:

It showed that your burner doesn't coorporate with your media completely. Please try different brand of media

benbryant - samtheminuteman is using DVD-R media. Almost all DVD-R media does not show a "Media Specific" in Nero Logs.

**LT. Columbo** · 16 Feb 2006, 06:01 PM

some do.

**jmet** · 16 Feb 2006, 06:02 PM

Even if they do, its not the whole code. Its usually only the first line.
