flashing nec1300a firmware

[miking]

Hi!

Having trouble flashing my nec1300a burner. Have seen that other people had the same problem and that your supposed to remove nero 6 which I did but when flashing with firmware from herrie all I get is a error:drive not responding correctly.

Is there a way to unlock the drive somehow?
Should I remove the player and then put it pack -- might that do the trick?

How did you go about flashing your firmware? What OS are you running? Did you follow the instructions and flash it in DOS? I flashed my drive by booting to a Windows 98 CD-ROM on my XP system and running the flash utility from a floppy disc - had no problems whatsoever and my drive is still going strong over 2 months later.

I have Windows XP, run it from ms-dos boot disk, booted in dos and when i run the firmware I got a error message: drive not respinding...
I created my bootdisk in Xp by formatting a floppy to ms-dos
