You haven't provided enough information to get proper assistance. What does
"refuses to burn" mean? Do you get options for 48x burn speed or not? If so,
what happens when you do try to burn at 48x? What media are you using? Have
you checked the ATIP to see what it really is? Download SmartBurn Media
Checker from LiteOn to check your media. I also suggest that you get some
true 48x media like TDK or Fuji, many brands say 40x when they are not
really 40x media.

Hi,

I recently got a new Liteon 52x24x52x cd-rw drive and it initially worked
flawlessly. I'm currently on a spindle of 40x certified media, and the
drive, while refusing to burn at 48x or 52x, always burned at 40x.

However,
suddenly I find that on the same media, it refuses to burn at anything

above
16x. My other liteon burner, a 24x drive, has no problem burning 24x on

this
media.

I'm not sure what's happened here. I did flash from the 6S0D firmware it
came with to the 6S0F. I'm not sure if the change in burn speed occurred
with the flash or not, but it's currently my best guess. However, after
managing to find a copy of the 6S0D firmware, it refuses to flash my drive
as it claims to be compatible only with liteon drives containing pre-6S0D
firmware installed.

Is there any way to downgrade my firmware? Is there any other explanation

as
to why it suddenly doesn't like my 40x media?

Thanks,
Ric
