[croarky]

[vgopal]

firstly what drive have you got?
0078fk?

[croarky]

model number is gdr-3120L

[beacytan]

check yer email mate

[vgopal]

model number is gdr-3120L

the top of the drive will
say something after that
such as 49DJ,59XX etc
only reason is that there is a different method to flash depending on which drive you have.

Hitachi`s are the easiest to do mate, I would go so far as to say you can`t get it wrong.

Oh yes you can.

The main thing to ensure you get is the DVD key. Email it to yourself and also write it down and save a copy somewhere else.
