ASUS 1608P- Flashed to F/W 1.50 and +RW won't work

[huy397]

Hello all...

I just purchased two ASUS 1608P burners and both came with F/W version 1.40. Today, I flashed one of them to 1.50 just for the heck of it and now I can't read or write any +RW discs...

All other functions are working great and I experience no error message while installing the new F/W.

What can I do now?

Thank you

Either RMA it (if official flash program from Asus) or flash back to 1.4. Sounds like you'll have to wait for version 1.6 where they will, hopefully, fix this bug.

How can I flash it back to V1.40 ? That's what I'd like to do.

Please excuse my ignorance... it's been a long time since I bought a new burner...

Thank you
