I just got my LiteOn 24x drive and when I plug in the drive and boot up, the tray ejects. This is using firmware 5s54. When I tried to flash the firmware with 5s57 which is the newest and appears to address this very problem, the flash fails. Either it comes up with a box that says "buffer>" with some hex values or it will appear that the flash works. When I reboot, the problem remains and the old firmware is still in place.
This is on an Iwill KK266+R mobo with both HD on the raid channel and the LiteOn is on the primary master IDE channel. I get no trouble finding the drive, but the firmware just fails to flash.
