    Hi, i've recently upgraded the firmware of my dvd drive. Since then the dvd video discs read speed is so slow that the playback is constantly skipping and it's impossible to watch anything.

    Burning speed is ok, and the read speed for data cds/dvds is also ok.

    My drive is an Optiarc AD-7640A. I've upgraded from firmware version JD05 to JD06.

    I can't find the previous version of the firmware anywhere.

    Somebody help me...please

    Sorry for my English
    Thanks in advance
