Just wanted to post another semi success story (fingers crossed that it worked, but I can't test it until later today!)
Your method worked for me like a charm. Used the firmware that MartyMcNuts gave me and used Erase and Write Flash in the Windows 7 PE.

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS55

Thanks Marty,

so to get this right, I definitely need to be on SATA0 to read out the flash drive, even if I managed to get one using SATA1? Do I also need to be on the right port to flash it? Does it need to be an IDE connection only for the read-out, or also for the flash?

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS55

Hi guys, I was more successful with the Windows environment, but it remains weird. With the normal dosflash32.exe, I received the same error as in DOS. I took a screenshot so that you can see what I mean. I then used the dosflash32_BH16NS40.exe, which was also created with the Windows bootable and i...

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS55

If I'm not mistaken, the unlocked flasher that you refer to does not work with my firmware 3.03. I tried that first and it gives the infamous "Write DRAM" error. I will try the Windows PE edition, I guess. @d00zah I am as sure as I can be, at least that was the number that had the Asus mod...

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS55

Yeah, I had that issue, but repeatedly typing dosflash solved that. Dosflash only asked me what to do with the flash after it detected the drive (which was the case in 10 tries out of 30). But everytime the drive was detected and I went for the next step, the readout failed with the error message I ...

Re: 100% Firmware Downgrade for ASUS BW-16D1HT and LG BH16NS55

Hi everyone, I also have the Asus BW-16D1HT and Firmware 3.03. I used the DOS-method to read my firmware, however it keeps saying "Unknown flash chip" after I type R and press enter. Until that point, everything works. The drive is also in IDE mode on an old motherboard. Any idea what I ca...
