Firmwares for Plextor burners and Windows Vista




Did the arrival of Windows Vista, a fairly large quantity of drivers is currently being published by the majority of manufacturers to support the new operating system. These new drivers include, for example, graphics cards, sound cards, TV cards ... But other types of equipment also require an update to work well with Windows Vista. This is especially true of certain motherboards for which an updated bios is advised. Some scanners also need to update their firmware so that the compatibility with Windows Vista is fully ensured.

The manufacturer Plextor has also published two new firmware for its burners PX-755A, PX-755SA (version 1.06), PX-760A and PX-760SA (version 1.05) to improve compatibility with Windows Vista. For the moment, only the RC 2 (Release Candidate 2) of Windows Vista has been tested with these firmware. Plextor does not therefore guarantee flawless operation with the RTM (Release To Manufacturer) and specifies, in addition, we must also ensure compatibility of burning software with the new operating system.

In addition, both firmware not merely compatible with Windows Vista, which today does a few users, but the quality of burning CDs and DVDs has also been improved. The performance of burning, especially when using the "AutoStrategy," have also been improved. Finally, for models PX-760A and PX-760SA only note that the burning of DVD-R DL at the speed of 8X is now supported. She was so far limited to 6X while DVD + R DL can, however, already be burned at a speed of 10X. For information, the site Gravure-News has just published these days folder to the latest DVD + R DL 8X marketed by Verbatim.
