What's the build date on your drive?

What your makemkv drive info section say?

The WH16NS60 one

Flash back to your normal drive then use that LG updater and see if it works

i see well that really should not happen but i do see sn is messed up and thats with cal data.

i have alot of old cal data i can share with you for lg and asus drives so if you get dosflash working i can send it to you to flash

Try flashing WH16NS60 1.00. This should hopefully then allow the use of Dosflash.
Cheers :D

Be sure your using 32 bit windows in ide mode

Also makesure your using the dosflash provided in my video.

And as Marty said you should be on WH16NS60 1.00 with full flash to make sure bootloader is written as that what dosflash talks to
