UPGRADING FIRMWARE
Occasionally, TDK may release drive firmware updates. Typically, you will not need to upgrade Indi
DVD's firmware. But if Indi DVD doesn't respond to other troubleshooting efforts, try loading the latest
firmware revision.
To obtain new firmware (if available) for Indi DVD:
1. Go to www.tdk.com/INDIsupport.
2. Look for firmware updates and check their intended uses.
3. Follow instructions for downloading the firmware to your computer.
To upgrade firmware:
1. Run the executable file that you downloaded.
2. Accept all defaults by clicking on the NEXT button until you see the message:
"Firmware update has completed."
3. Reboot your system.
4. Verify DMA is enabled before using Indi DVD.
NOTE: If the firmware upgrade does not complete
successfully, disable DMA and try the procedure again.
