Have the same prob. with mine. I have what I thought was a 8432e
cdrw
drive, tried the firmware update. Got an error wrong version. Checked the
stickers and markings on the drive
Ends up that the drive is a rebagged panasonic CW-7586 with creative
stickers and a 8432 face.
Ripped off yes, but this is apparently common so I have found out.
Next
buy I do I will completely check out the drive before buying.
