    Hi,

    My lg lw60 laptop writes dvd's at 8x on sony dvd's, but only 2x on the new memorx 16x dvd's. I'm assuming the firmware on the dvd burner needs an update. Is there anyone here who has the HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GSA-4080N burner that has this problem and or has a firmware update for it?

    I've checked lg's site, and they have a firmware for every other burner but mine...isn't that always the case?


    Thanks in advance.

    You might want to try some Taiyo Yuden blanks dvds. They are widely considered to be the best. You can get them at places like Rima.com.
