Firmware
Hello,
Here is the download page for the firmware update for this drive:
follow these instructions carefully.
8240firm119.exe
(free registration required at Driver Guide)
Firmware v1.19 for the LG
GCE-8240B burner. After downloading double-click the file to start the
extraction program. Accept the default unzip folder (C \8240firm119)
then click the UNZIP button. 2 files will be written to the folder. One
is the firmware (the exe file) and the other is a instructions.txt
file. Be sure to read/print the instructions before attempting to use
the firmware upgrade. Paying particular attention to the section
dealing with whether your drive is OEM or LG. This firmware is only for
LG drives and will not work on LG OEM drives. Use this file at your own
risk. I nor driverguide.com will not assume any responsibility if your
drive is damaged.
We are NOT responsible for any mistakes you make or you loosing power during the flash. You should be on a battery backup power supply to ensure you do not loose power.

you might have to physically unplug the leads for this
cd/dvd then plug them back this should activate the found new hardware
wizard or
you might have to uninstall
then restart your computer then reinstall your DVD/CD then reinstall the driver
for this device
if your computer came with
a motherboard disk the drivers could be on it
click start control panel
administrive tools computer management device manager scroll down cd dvdrom
drives if you see a yellow question or exclamation mark?! or a red x
right click you will need to update the driver
or
select properties general troubleshoot, select driver
click to reinstall drivers click update driver
hope this helps
