I need help I think. I'm about to install this drive (so excited) but I just wanted to make sure the jumper setting is correct the way it is.

The two pins in the center : are connected. Is this right? No manual came with the drive. Thanks, Allen.

Ok, I got it! The jumpers were set at slave from the factory and I made them master like the old drive I removed.

Now for the firmware. I have BCFC and I can upgrade to BCDC but I've got to do a search on here first to see if that's what I want.

BCFC is the latest, you would be DOWNGRADING rather than updating if you choose to go back to the BCDC~ :)

i've had quite a few great burns using BCDC, but have equally good if not marginally better burns using the BCFC now~ :)

check here for my BCFC firmware scan :

Thank you. I seem to have got it now. I just burned the movie Hostel and ran it through a DVD quality test (Nero).

98%!!!! I burned at 4x speed on Verbatim (MCC) 16x media. I never got above 88-89 before that! This place and the people here are awesome!

Congrats on the new burner fleezbyte. Here's a link to qsuite 2.0 and 2.1.

Theres some nice programs in it for your drive:

http://support.benq.com/front/BenqMain.asp?MenuHead=128&ShowType=...

Solidburn
WOPC
Qscan-scan blanks to see if they'll work for various speeds.
Overspeed
Booktype management-in case it isn't set as your default setting.

98% on a 16x verb at 4x is awesome.
Was that plus or dash verbs?

Usually benqs perform worse at that low speed.Nothing serious,just a few more of those little pif errors.

Give 8x a shot on those 16x verbs.
