@ garmoon
Thank you for the flash update, however, dprincess is not very pacient and has asked that I fix or replace the drive unit, being as it comes with a 1 yr. guarantee.
@ binkie7
true, was entertaining letting her figure this out on her own. But, I guess she's tiered/bored with it.
Did the flash update, no difference, the drive unit recognizes prerecorded CD's, but not "empty" recordable disks. Am trying the LG service No., but waiting on a call-back from them.
No problem taking the drive in/out, but would like to know why, or at least know if the drive is truely deffective.

LOL - my daughter was the same way - little problem solver now it's let Mom fix/deal w/ it :)
Does the drive at least recognize blanks dvd's to burn- only cd's give it a problem?

that's it, works fine for all situations, but won't recognize the blank CD's for burning.Don't really understand it myself, will burn a dvd, do lightscribe, but wont acknowledge a blank CD.

hmmm - the cd's dprincess have are good too - use the same ones myself w/o a hitch.
Yeah I would call LG too - I'm leaning more towards defective too.
It's usually the other way around - dvd's cause the problem.
Hopefully they will have good cust serv & won't give you some bs line.
Keep us posted!

That's the ticket, (youngster)- I boobooed, Pop's, make it better, pplleeaassee!
@Blinkie7
That the drive be defective is the only logical solution, watched her do the clean out, supervised in the reconnect/change of cables and jumpers, all she had to do, as earlier posted, was do a light-scribe burn and wha-la, no more cd burning.
If I can get through to LG, will let you know what they say

Well, that worked well, I hope the new drive works as intended. LG drives aren't bad just don't do quality scans with Nero. I like my LG. But I use my BenQ to burn. Make sure if you or dprincess is using +Rs to book type them to DVD-ROM. Your LG is capable.

ain't that the truth, just too easy to get a new drive, specially since the LG website doesn't have any updates on their computer stuff since "04", kinda wondering if it advisable to use it at all!!
