    The firmware installer will not work until windows itself recognizes the blu-ray drive. Try to uninstall the device in your device listing then reboot. See if
    windows sees your blu-ray and installs the driver. Many of these devices have built-in support in windows to where you do not have to install a seperate driver. You do need to make sure that you have all other device drivers install. Look for any "unknown device" listed in your device listing.
