Overview
This article provides instructions to download and update the Philips DVD8631 HH 16X DVD+/-RW firmware to version CD21. This update corrects the problem where the drive fails to read a CD-ROM disc, like a program CD or audio CD, when used for the very first time. The drive will read a CD-R, CD-RW or a DVD disc, but not a CD-ROM disc, on the first insertion.
