I just got this drive based on the recommendations I received here and tried to flash the firmware to 1.29, but I cannot seem to find the north american version. The EU versions give me a "Failed to Move to the Normal Mode" messages.

Any suggestions are welcome

Check out http://club.cdfreaks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=87 before asking "what version" type of questions, because it's already answered in one of the threads there.

Thanks for the replies.

I tried those links and they didn't seem to make any difference. reading discs, and copying all fail using nero. swapping the drive with my old LG 4163 works fine.

Guess I will return it and get another LG or Benq 1655
