DW-D56A DVD Drive Problems

Hey everyone!

I have an FS115Z and have been having some DVD drive problems. having browsed the forum for a while I realised that this is not uncommon... as someone said:

and if you have a DW-D56A that's working, then by definition it IS broken 


my drive is the DW-D56A and it usually works but sometimes it seems to be unable to read dvds. it keeps making the sound it usually does when you first put something in. so i reckon it tries to read the dvd but just cant.

when it is trying to read nothing else works and everything goes back to normal when i eject the disc.

i know it is not the discs cause i treid several different ones (and some them brand new)

i havent been able to understand what causes it to malfunction casue it still works sometimes, just not all the time.

My question is about the firmware update. should i try it? does it make any difference at all or could it make things worse??

It is really annoying that Sony dont seem to care enough about widely-recognized problems such as DW-D56A to release a working update...

thanx for any feedback
