Aopen writer OC :) IT WORKS!

Just like Lite On drives its Possible to flash an other firmware in a Aopen writer aswel

if you try to flash the 4048 firmware it doesnt allow you to,

this is how to do:


run the flashprogram for your model!

wait until its has erased the firmware

quickly KILL the flashprogram

than restart it with the 4048 firmware

its stats flashing now cuz there is no firmware to check

THIS WIL ONLY WORK ON Windows 2k/XP cuz you cant kill the flash program on win 9x

Nice... you don't even have to edit anything...
But it seems a little risky...

I failed to overclock my Aopen crw 2040

This afternoon, I tried to overclock my Aopen CRW 2040 to 4048,but I was unlucky. I failed to do that. And now my writer can not be identified by system. The indicator lamp of the writer is always light when I turn on my computer . It seems that my writer need to be repaired.

If the drive has a Mediatek chipset, mtkflash can reflash a drive even if the BIOS can't see it. Whoever made that pogram deserves a Nobel peace prize. 'Course you'll need the firmware in .bin format

I am planning to buy a Aopen 4048

is it capable of overburning 90 - 99 minute cd's ??

just wanted to verify before spending my money on a cd rewriter which is not an improvement to the one I allready have
