Trevor,
Checkout the following link:
http://www.cdmediaworld.com (click on the link labeled 'CD Media World #1 to
enter the website.)
Once at the website, you can take the link labeled "CD-Writer Firmwares"
In my experience, this is the best CD Writing Website I've found. If anyone
knows of other great websites, please let me know.
Hope that helps,
Matt
