Hi I read your post on firmware and creative cdrw. I have the rw8435e, will the same firmware work with this model.

thanks m8

Almost certainly not. The reason that the JVC firmware works with the 4224 is that the 4224 is a JVC writer that has been re-badged by Creative Labs and given some crap firmware.
Your Writer is not made by JVC originally however, so loading JVC firmware would be a bad idea, it's probably made by Samsung....I think.
