Asus Drw 24d5mt Firmware Update __exclusive__ Link
Short story — ASUS DRW-24D5MT firmware update
- Open Device Manager → DVD/CD-ROM drives → right-click your ASUS drive → Properties → Details tab → Hardware Ids. Look for
FWVER_XXXX (e.g., FWVER_1.00).
- Or use IMGBurn / DVDInfoPro to see firmware revision.
Warning:
The optical drive market is a niche area where fake “driver updater” software thrives. Be very wary of third-party websites claiming to have a brand new 2024 or 2025 firmware for this drive. Most of these are malware or adware.
- First attempt: Power off PC, disconnect drive’s SATA data cable (leave power connected), boot to Windows, then shut down, reconnect data cable, and retry firmware update.
- Advanced: Some users have success using the DOS-based flash utility (if ASUS provides it). This requires a bootable USB drive with FreeDOS.
- Last resort: Contact ASUS support. The drive may be covered under warranty if the official tool caused the brick.
Problem 1: “Drive Not Found” or “No ASUS Drive Detected”
"Drive Not Found" Error:

- Verify new version: Repeat step 2 (check Hardware Ids).
- Test burn: Use ImgBurn or CDBurnerXP to write a DVD+RW (rewritable) first. Check for errors.
- No change in performance? If nothing improved, you can’t “downgrade” easily – most ASUS flashers block older firmware.
A failed firmware update can render your drive permanently unusable (a “brick”). Follow this checklist meticulously. Short story — ASUS DRW-24D5MT firmware update
