Re: Problem Burning DL on Samsung SH-S203B Drive

Although the process is fairly simple, there are a few things to keep in mind:
The newer Samsung firmwares are bundled in a One Click Firmware Upgrade, so you'll have to extract the .bin file and use this instead of the .exe file.
As my good friend Bob said, it's a simple matter to extract the .bin file by right clicking.
Bob also cautions against using the Live Update.

Any problems or questions, just give a holler, If I'm not around, I'm sure Bob will help out. You won't find a more knowledgable, nicer guy when it comes to burners...
Thank you! I appreciate your help and - more important - your feedback on that patch utility. It is downloaded on my system now but I need to install the SB01 firmware back on the drive and start from there.

I should also have a chance to test it out later in the week.

No matter what happens, you can be sure that I will write (whine) about it...

Thank you!
