if anyone had a problem recieving the emails with the files please let me know I will resend them! also for anyone else that might like to have these files below are the instructions that HP sent me. I have not rechanged the names back to .saf. So you shouldn't have to do the steps that say rename them to .exe

just send me a message and I will send the files to you!

I really hope they work for everyone that recieves them!

I have been having alot of trouble with my drive lately, I had to uninstall the controllers and let xp reinstall them but I have burnt 2 dvd's since upgrade, flash and reinstaller controller and they worked fine so far

GOOD LUCK ALL

jake8131,
I see you achieved only a 8x speed burn with the "CMC MAG. AE1"-media with the new fw.
In post #30 of this thread this media is listed as 12x speed capable.
So it seems that the firmware still needs some work from a guru like ala42.

I just mailed the firmware ES04.CVT-file and flasher-program to the email-contact given on http://www.rpc1.org/ and asked for putting it on their site.
Maybe you will find it there soon.

The first two Verbatim certified at 16x on the HP 640i. The second two on the Benq with same brand disks. Your decision.

Well I flashed the new firmware. MCC 003 and YUDEN T02 will still only burn at 8x. So it seems the higher speeds are still locked.

Just discovered that The Dangerous Brothers have a RPC-1 version of the ES04 fw.

i bought the Hp 640i, it is a Benq and looks identical to the pic posted by Rick above.

I have been having some issues as of lately. Never any issues burning, but when reading some DVD's no matter what program I use i am getting erros, mostly CRC errors. My drive is identified as being "born on" 5-8-05, and I am running the latest firmware JS04. I am really not sure what is causing it, but it seems to be only when trying to read DVD's with software that is capable of editing/decrypting/encoding such as DVD Shrink, DVD Decrypter, Clone DVD, etc......playback via WMP or Nero Showtime never gives any issues.

I am thinking that some of the more recent DVD's have some sort of copy protection that causes trouble with the reading of a drive once it realizes you may be about to try to copy/edit?
