    This firmware update is for drives with original firmware versions below DL12.
    The drives must be original LG branded drives with the DVD Writer 
    model number GSA-4167B(no OEM units). 

    If you have an OEM unit, branded with another manufacturers name, 
    please contact that manufacturer for support and firmware updates.

    This firmware update is for use only on PC's with Windows XP, Windows 2000, 
    Windows Millennium Edition (ME), or Windows 98SE.


    [Critical Instructions: (to be followed carefully)

    1. Connect the drive as 'master' by it self, on the secondary IDE controller with 
       no other device on the same IDE cable, making note to set the jumper on 
       the back of the drive to the "master" position.

    2. Download the file GSA-4167DL13(EW).ZIP to a folder of your choice. 
       This download includes this "Read me(ew)" text file, as well as the GSA4167DL13.EXE 
    program, which will auto-update your drive's firmware.

    3. Close all other programs including: screen saver, antivirus and/or power-down programs. 
       (If these programs are not closed, they will try to engage the PC, during the update process, 
    thus interrupting the update and damaging the drive).

    4. Check the drive to ensure that there is no disk in the tray 
       before you start the update procedure.

    5. Go into the folder with the update file and double click the GSA4167DL13.EXE program

    ※ WARNING: 
       Do not open any programs or start any system functions during the update, 
       as they will interfere with data transfer and damage the drive. 
       Do not cancel the operation once it has been started or the drive will 
       become permanently damaged, as a result.
