With a Crash from my PC, i lost the Driver for my DVD , it's a Aopen DUW1616/ARR but i can't find the driver at the official site, only firmware and that's only an update for the driver you have. My troubleshooter say's, there's no problem but nothing is working and so I can't do anything with it. I tried chancing de regioncode in to netherlands, but can't complete it because it's not installed.
I also lost the backup for all my installed software but for the most of it there was no problem to get it from internetsites, but not for this DVD Player/Burner.
Who can help me to fix this?
The maker is dead, they decided not to support the old products at all not even a nice legacy page, sure silly photos show and zero else.
NO OS told a tall, or PC model , is this VISTA, last person on earth using vista,?
why own relics that have no support at all from anyone but now virus sites, endless website offing virus drivers to the desperate.
2005 made dvd drive, it is 17 years old, and most that old are dead.(nos expected) or needs big time lens cleaning inside.
the driver are 17 years old
and the other good set of driver are from MS but the ended that. leaving a GIANT Sucking sound the vacuum of EOL.
why run Vista 2007 or older, there is no w7 driver but you can try, if you want see if the MS PnP severs can muster up w7 driver, now MS zero support for w7 too.
why not buy a PC or mobo 2010 or newer with i3 , up or h55 up chip set and end all this horror, and run w10
next time post OS and mobo model.
and get 10x better answers. I posted just a 2005 answer.
SOURCE: Aopen DUW1608/ARR Problem
Right click on my computer>properties>device manager>hardware and look for line saying cd/dvd drives and highlight your dvd burner. Right click it and click uninstal. Restart your pc and Windows will automatically re install it. See if this works, if not either needs a lazer clean disc or you need to replace it they are cheap these days.
SOURCE: I downloaded a driver for my DVD AOpen
It is not a driver, it is firmware. Usually firmware has to be installed via a different Application. the OS should recognize your DVD drive/burner without need for a driver.

SOURCE: AOpen DUW1608/ARR firmware flash failed and now it
you will need "flash magic" software, a device to provide 12V power supply to device, one cable to transfer data,download the working firmware for you device and save it to your device.
