Ok. I added some more informations to my post above. Perhaps you can help me now.

would suggest you try the same as i advised another member for a differet model, see the thread below

GT10N is a Panasonic chipset drive, so it won't work with the "flasher" utility.

However you are in luck. MSI released a GT10N 1.02 firmware in Nov 2009 (http://global.msi.eu/index.php?func=dow ... od_no=1882).

You can use MCSE to patch the original 1.02 firmware and then flash your drive with the patched version.
