It seems that my burner (HP DVD 840b just flashed to LG GSA-4166B) doesn't like the fuji film dvd+r's anymore that i've always used. Why is this so? :frusty:

The possible burning strategies are coded into the firmware, different firmwares use different strategies.
It is probable that the burning strategy in the new firmware isn't compatible with the disks you use, or possible just plain wrong.
Find a different firmware or change disks.
^:yup:
besides, you shouldn't cross-flash unless you're 100% certain drive is identical in every aspect except the name.
in fact, you shouldn't flash at all unless you have problems you can't solve any other way :) don't fix it if it works
anyway, as said, find firmware that will work :yup:
:noes:
Reverting back isn't as easy as that, the installer checks to see if it's the correct HP drive, and won't allow the install to proceed if not.
It is possible, but from what I've seen this involves editing the image you've currently got (to give the HP ident), flashing again with this modified image, then flashing with the HP image.
if i understood correctly he flashed to lg, it worked, then flashed again to newer lg and it doesn't work. meaning he reverts to lg, not hp, don't know if i got him right tho :)
He is weird, did you think the title was referring to something else? :whistling
