I went to that page and downloaded the ZIP file. Which seems to
be a firmware upgrade for my Drive of 518.09 kb dated 03/22/2006
So what do I do now -- do I update this firmware or is what's
below what I need?
And if this isn't it, wouldn't a restore point work?
Here is the page I got from google -- it calls it
firmware-driver
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/FIRMWARE/Lyra/LiteOn-DVDRw-LDW411S-firmware-101.shtml
or if that breaks up:
http://tinyurl.com/2z5m29
which then takes me to this page on softpedia.com's site:
http://tinyurl.com/2hjh5u
but I can't get it to download :-(
It's the version for the DVD Drive because right now my computer
is using one of MS from 2001

There is a firmware update available here that is dated March
22, 2006.
Are you sure the terminology used was "firmwware driver"?
Firmware and
drivers are usually two different pieces of software. The
firmware would be
internal to the drive (like the BIOS in a computer) while the
driver is
internal to the computer operating system.
Please make sure that you *know* what you are downloading and
installing. A
mistake installing a driver is easily corrected. A mistake
installing
firmware could render the drive totally useless.
Also, follow the link to the instructions for installing the
firmware
update.
