ATAPI DVD DD 2x16x4x16

BenQ / Philips Writer Discuss, ATAPI DVD DD 2x16x4x16 at CD and DVD Writers forum; I just purchased a Benq DW1620(might be OEM drive). After I installed it, windows XP detects it as a ATAPI DVD DD 2x16x4x16 drive. Nero Info also reports it the same. The firmware version is showing G7L9. The disk came with no drivers. Is this correct?

Yes this is typical. You could flash it to G7P9 (generally considered better then G7L9), burn a few disks and if you want to cross flash it to the retail firmware by using windflsh and a B series firmware in cvt format.

cross flashing tools and all serveral firmware ...

yes and if you want you could cross flash the drive to the "B" firmware. download the windwexe.file and B7P9 cvt file from this site:
http://dvdpro.club.st/firmware/BENQ_FW.htm
make sure there is no media in the drive, turn off your antivirus software and any other programs running in the background. then you can either flash the drive in windows or in safe mode.

I believe that threads over a certain period of time since the last post should be closed to stop people dredging them up like this.

gus738, I splitted and merged your crosspost. Please continue to post in this thread.

To flash your atapi dvd dd 2x16x4x16 to a BenQ you can use BQFlasher.

Your drive is an OEM Benq 1620.
You have two choices:
1- you upgrade to the latest 1620 OEM firmware G7V9

2- you crossflash your OEM drive into a true Benq drive using the tool ZEVIA just gave you and the latest retail Benq 1620 firmware B7W9

If you chose to crossflash (which is what any one here did!!!) you loose your warranty ... but your drive will be seen as a true Benq by your computer, and not as an ATAPI drive

Make your choice, I can't help your for that!

wow thanks for the reply , ok well as far as the warranty goes ? staples does not check these drives they just give you a gift card for what you paid so i dont care as far as the warranty, now i dont care if it says benq or atapi BUT what i do care is that my drive benefits from the firmware update.... so which one gives you better media reading better spd burning better realibity???

I am having the EXACT same problems with my Benq drive. However, when I try to apply ANY firmware upgrade/update/whatever, it always comes back with "No Device Found". The drive shows up in Device Manager, however, it has the yellow sign next to it because it doesn't have the correct driver installed, which is what I'm trying to accomplish.

Any thoughts?

Welcome to CDF, Jim

Is there an error code number to go with that yellow exclamation mark?

Also, what version of Windows are you running?

atekcomputer, in My Computer remove burner by rightclick "remove".
Restart compu and let windoze install proper drivers.

BTW, I'm not using Gates/windoze anymore, but I remember having the very same problem with my Litey 411 /win 2k years ago.

Happy burning.
