You are both now members of the "No support from Creative" club. The only
support ever provided by Creative to owners of their rebadged drives is for
those who purchased the original drives sold by Creative in each speed
category. In the case of both the 8432 and 121032 series drives, the
originals were Plextors, quickly followed by an assortment of cheaper drives
(Samsung, Panasonic, LiteOn, etc) In the case of your 8439E, it is the
*fifth* different drive sold by Creative in the 8432 box. There have been:
8432E, 8433E, 8435E, 8438E and 8439E. There are at least two 121032 drives
as well. Of all the different drives, Creative offers firmware updates for
*only* the rebadged Plextor drives, not for the other brands they rebadge,
even though the other manufacturers *do* have upgrades available.
As far as your software woes are concerned, other software vendors may
eventually add the 8439E to their drive lists, but don't hold your breath.
