Hi
I have a HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4160B DVD/CD Rewriter.
It will read both DVD and CD but has stopped writing.
When I try to burn a new CD in windows, I get the error message Pease insert a writeable CD into drive E:\. When I use Nero I get a message saying the Drive is in use by another programme.
Any help would be great.

Jump to PostThere are no firmware updates for this drive:sad: . I would test it in another machine if it works you could have a software problem, if not bin it and get a new one. Let me know outcome!:lol:
Jump to PostI had a similar problem once, it turned out the power supply was not up to powering all my added on bits and was no longer supplying sufficient current to burn a cd properly. Solution get a bigger PSU (bigger Watts not bigger size obviously)
But yeah try it …
