Hey, I need to install a new Firmware version to my DVD R drive but when I download the firware, click it, it comes up with command prompt and says "Error! Available Target Not Found".

Im using a "Pioneer DVD RW DVR-109" and im trying to install the "DVR-129" firmware onto it but I get that message every single time! Confused

If anyone knows why im getting this error or what im doing wrong, please help!

Thnx

Well, from the error message that you have provided, it looks like that you are trying to update the wrong firmware for your DVD-RW drive...

I googled your model and came up with this firmware version: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pio/pe/images/portal/cit_3424/276689257DVRx09_FW158.zip

Here's also the UK link: http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/download.jsp?dir=/files/support/dvrup&filename=R109_FW158EU.EXE

Sure you read their readme how to update the firmware? I know some demand you to create floppy or other media that can be used during bootup.

From the readme:
Quote:
Make sure there is no disc in the drive and then run the update executable file, and follow the prompts. Some drive models are very similar so if the update is not able to "find a tartget drive" please be sure to check that the update you have is the correct one for your drive model.

sounds like you may have the wrong firmware for the drive. You should check to see what the drive is listed as in Device Manager to confirm the model number.
