Which means? I was not able to find the exact same circumstances in other postings, everything else works out fine and the software is doing its job perfectly, which is a reason to be happy :)

Try flashing to BW-16D1H-U A204, which you can find in the MK Firmware Pack in the first post here ... viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634

The Flasher 1.3.5 you can find there also.

As @zittrig said, use Marty McNuts SDFtool Flasher viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22896 . Marty's "All You Need Firmware Pack" is found on the same page is smaller and simpler (maybe shorten the folder name to "AYNFP". Choose "DE_ASUS_BW-16D1HT_3.10_MK.bin" for your drive.
