Yesterday we reported that Plextor Japan had released a new firmware version for their PX-W2410A drive. Now, thanks to LavaIce for the tip, Plextor Americe has also officially released it:
- Date posted: April 22, 2002
- Added support for Taiyo Yuden 40X and Verbatim 40X media.
- Added support for Orange Book part 2 volume 2 version 1.1.
- Fixed a bug where the drive may hang if burnproof occurred during the writing of the lead-out.
- Fixed a bug where there may be a comparison error when creating a VideoCD.
- Fixed a bug where the drive was not recognized when attached to a Workbit ATA-1394/USB1.1 bridge board.
- Fixed a bug where the drive may hang when scanning a mixed mode CD with CD Creator 5.1.1.102.
NOTE: We have seen some issues with our firmware updaters and the VIA chipset drivers. If you experience difficulties ("ERROR SENDING FIRMWARE (0 : 0 : 0)") when updating the firmware and you have a VIA chipset, please download this driver and install it.
You can download this new firmware from this page. Please read the instructions before upgrading/flashing your Plextor drive.
