Just upgraded my firmware. I burned an 800 meg music CD in 3:00 (29.6x average). Ran CD Speed
tests, everything was fine. Ran CD DAE, did error free DAE from the CD I just burned at 20x -
48x. I can't find any faults.
Here is the instructions I copied from here somewhere and updated. You need a bootable floppy
with no CD drivers and the files mktflash.exe and XSU1.bin.
DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Make sure you get the flashing steps down:
1) Format a floppy in Win95/98 with the copy system files option (bootable without CDROM drivers)
2) Download the MTKFLASH prog and the Liteon firmware (XSU1.bin) from the link previously
mentioned and put them on another empty floppy.
3) Boot to DOS with the Win95/98 boot disk. Then insert the floppy with the flash files.
4) Backup your current firmware by the following command:
MKTFLASH X R /B /M filename.bin (where X is either 1 = Primary Master, 2 = Primary Slave, 3 =
Sec Master, 4 = Sec Slave, "Filename" = the name of your current firmware. Note the spaces
between the letters after mktflash.)
5) Turn that 32x Liteon into a 40x by the next command:
MKTFLASH X W /B XSU1.bin (where X = see above) It will take a few minutes to write. Don't touch
the computer until it finishes.
Remove the floppy and boot into WinXP (or any OS) and you should be set. The instructions say
not to use the secondary IDE channel, but I did and it wrote fine.
Qualcuno mi puo' dire se e' giusto?, a me non funziona. :cry:
