Darryl:
Thank you for the response. On the download site,
there are only codes for 32X and 40X CD-ROM. My drive
is PLEXTOR PX-20TSi, 20X speed. Will the code work for
a 20X CD_ROM?
one fact stil confusing me,
This CD-ROM with the same firmware works on the other
machine.
I updated the system firmware. no luck.
Thanks.
Bill
