BenQ / Philips Burner Discuss, BenQ DW1655 won't read DVDRW media at CD and DVD Burners forum; I have a BenQ DW1655 with BCDB firmware. The drive preforms well, reads and writes all media except for DVDRW media. (+ or -) Has anyone else had a similar problem, if so, is there any way to fix the drive? EDIT: Also, the drive light will not come on when ReWritable

BenQ DW1655 won't read DVDRW media

I have a BenQ DW1655 with BCDB firmware. The drive preforms well, reads and writes all media except for DVDRW media. (+ or -) Has anyone else had a similar problem, if so, is there any way to fix the drive?

EDIT: Also, the drive light will not come on when ReWritable DVD media is inserted.

Hi
Welcome to the forum nukewinter.
Not sure if this will help, but I believe that bitsetting for DVD+RW is set to DVD-ROM by default. Try changing to +.

No luck, booktype was already +RW.

@nukewinter
RMA it right away , I bought my DW1650 last week in Honk Kong & it won't erase or write to any DVD+/- RW discs at all, they exchange another one for me the next day with no questions ask. Worked flawlessly ever since

Thanks, wish I didn't have to go through the hassle though, oh well.
