Anyone have a firmware update for my SONY CRX830E CD DRIVE or know where I can find one. I have a Compaq Presario 2100 and I searched all over the net and can only find an update for Sony Vaio systems or Dell systems not my Presario. Please help!

This is a request so please follow our request rules first.
Also, this is no CD-ROM, therefore this thre gets moved anyway...

Sorry about posting in wrong place, I forgot to mention my CD Drive is playing all music cd's and data cd's fine but it wont read DVD movies or DVD-ROM games In the past it played them. I was hoping a firmware update would fix this but if not Is there anything else I can do to fix this problem. Thanks again.

if you have hardware issues, firmware will not fix these, please post discinfo output, as request rules

Some people seem to think firmware updates can sometimes help disc reading problems well thats what I found searching online , why it will read data and not dvd-roms is the confusing part.

Not correct, you already told us that CDs work but DVDs not.
That are 2 different things because such drives have usually 2 lenses, one for CD media and one for DVD.

Not unlikely that the dvd part went dead........
In that case no firmware, software or similar can help.
