Spróbuj zaktualizować chipset \ lub sterowniki kontrolerów . Jak to nic nie pomoże to nie da się zaktualizować napędu na tym komputerze.

To bardzo częsty problem w starych napędach że tylko można aktualizować na kontrolerach z czasów tych modeli CDRW -tak miały bardzo stare modele RICOH, LG , Teac , Sony , HP ,Philips ...

Jedyne inne wyjście to znalezienie bardzo starego komputera z kontrolerem IDE który będzie poprawnie współpracował z tym napędem Teac CD-W54E i flasherem aktualizacji.


Try to update the chipset \ or controller drivers. If that does not help, you can not update the CD drive on this computer.

This is a very common problem in old drives that you can only update on controllers from the times of these CDRW models - they had very old models RICOH, LG, Teac, Sony, HP, Philips ...

The only other option is to find a very old computer with IDE controller that will work properly with this Teac CD-W54E drive and update flasher.

Trzeba szukać innego komputera i kontrolera . Im starszy tym lepszy .

You need to look for another computer and controller. The older the better .
