Hi,
I flashed my firmware on my Pioneer 105D quite a while ago and it has been running OK, but I just upgraded Nero from 6.3.0.16 to 6.6 before realizing they aren't compatible so uninstalled and reinstalled 6.3.0.16 now this has been running OK burning CDs with my LiteOn. I hadn't used the Pioneer until a friend said his Pioneer 105D was being recognized as a 106D in Windows (he had just reinstalled WindowsXP with SP1 and Nero 6.3.0.25) When I checked mine it also is recognized as a 106D. He said his will not copy DVDs now, I tried mine and even even copying to hard drive, it fails when copying a non copy protected DVD to DVD or hard drive. It starts copying it then after a few minutes the speed starts to flustuate then starts dropping down and then fails. Now it's possible mine was done by my firmware update but he hasn't altered his firmware and Pioneer say this is the only way that Windows could recognise it has a 106D. So what has gone wrong and how can we fix it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
