Benq DW1620

[HorseShoe]

Hey guys, I own a Benq DW1620 dvd burner, and when I went into device manager it says ATAPI dvd burner or w/e, and not Benq.

And when I talked to my friend about it he told me that I had to flash it or something and install the correct firmware. Do you guys know what hes talking about, because I have no idea 0_o.

If you bought an OEM one it will say ATAPI.
If you cross flash it to the Brand Name Firmware it will say benq.

Ya mine is an OEM version, and I heard that if I flash it to the Benq name it will burn a bit better and recognize more cd/dvds.

Yeah, It depends on your media. Some firmwares are better with certian media.
