Hello all,

New guy here trying to flash my drive, I tried unsuccessfully after following the guide for my slim LG, so I invested in an ASUS one, but cannot flash it due to it not being MT1959 Platform. I know one of the active users has been PMing people on how to get it done.

Any tips or guides I can follow for it?:

This one contains a Pioneer drive, not an LG-based drive. Billycar11 or CooperVid should be able to help you.

But there is a specific thread for the ASUS BW-16D1X-U ----> viewtopic.php?f=16&t=32872&p=183020#p183020
