My dvdrom is dead..any idea how to repair it? Did you guys think if I update the firmware it should be ok?

It can detect cd/dvd..but whenever I try to open files inside cd/dvd, myy lappie failed sad.gif

Editted:

Ok, guess what, after I flashed the BIOS from version 4A to 49, all the problem gone. Not even can read the data properly, now I can write/burn the data properly ...thanks guys! Very nice info on 1st page...keep it up smile.gif

hi guys,

I tried to install WinXP on my 126AX, but it seems that my XP Cd is not compatible maybe? I got BSOD after winxp loading from CD, could it came from incompatible driver pre-loaded from that CD?

By the way, Im looking forward to install Win7 on this lappie. So far i didnt see a guide on that, but the driver is allready been distributed on the net.

Same heating problem here.. smile.gif

thanks
