I have a NEC DVD+RW ND-3100AD 107E (E:) (ATA) drive, my only writable compact disc drive. It accepts DVD+R, which is fine but I don’t think it supports booktyping DVD+R to DVD+ROM. In fact I don’t think it can booktype at all. Here’s what I’ve tried:
Nero BurningRom (option to booktype does not come up when I go to Choose a recorder>E:>Options
Alcohol 120 (Booktype to DVD-ROM is checked, but when I burn it it stays as a DVD+R)
ImgBurn (When I go to Booktype settings it says Error Failed)
I’ve been reading Liggy’s posts and some stuff on converting my 3100 to a 3500 drive, and then flashing a firmware for that (what is that?? and how do i do that?) and then download Liggy’s modified 3500 Bitsetting firmwares which would allow me to booktype to DVD-Rom. Did I say all that correctly, and would what I said work? If it does what is ‘flashing a firmware for my new firmware ID’ and where can I do it ? thanks.
Eh, I downloaded Liggy’s NEC Driver converter from here

and I’m about to convert my 3100 to a 3500… hopefully it won’t break or anything… thanks
