I bought a WH16NS40-NS50 drive, and comes with firmware 1.04.

I'm trying to flash firmware 1.02 on it, but I'm getting "Updating Failure #4", when I try to do it with the modified ASUS flasher.
I also tried 1.03, but I got the same message.
Read this https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1067

That link brings me to a generic news and announcements page. I'm currently receiving a Failure #4 while using the Modified Asus Flasher on my ASUS BW-16D1HT 3.10 down to 3.02.

Any advice?

Also I have an older unit with same model, but with SVC Code NS40 and revision 1. It was manufactured in June 2015. Can anyone tell me if the unit itself is capable of UHD as it appears to not recognize UHD discs at all. It just seeks endlessly.

Flash 1.04-MK first. You cannot go straight from 1.04 to 1.02.

Here’s a question: I’ve got DVD Fab complaining about a flashed ASUS saying it needs to have its firmware downgraded. I originally flashed it to 3.10 MK which I assume I
is the problem. So what would be a good firmware version to use to avoid upsetting DVD Fab?

Thank you.

According to their website, it appears it needs 3.01...

Try 3.02. I had someone ask me this same question earlier this morning!!

1.04-MK doesn't actually seem to exist. Am I overlooking something here?

Not NS50 or later: No UHD

Okay. I managed to roll it back by flashing a different drive FW on there and then flashing the actual model number to 1.02. It's reading UHD discs now. Quick question got a FW that you recommend in terms of speed and reliability for this model? This FW seems, slow.

Basically the UHD firmwares read at 4x to 6x. The only firmware that is faster belongs to the official UHD drive, the WH16NS60 which reads at 6x to 8x.

Hi.

1. Make sure that AnyDVD is NOT running!!
2. As you have VS 2019 installed, I assume you also have .net framework 3.5 installed? (3.5 is required)
3. Does your windows user account have "Administrator" level access?
