However, I burned it at 10x, but it seemed to burn just fine. Also the image copy I downloaded was Mode1. I followed the instructions and got the update screen. However, it then said disc defective or whatever and said to hit ok. I did so and ever since then the display is permanently black now!!!! Oddly the ipod/FM and CD player all work. I tried loading it again and same update screen and error.
Unless x10 is the slowest rated speed of the disc, then thats the problem mate.

Thinking it was the Mode1 problem/10x burning problem, I downloaded the last link of the Mode 2 v32 image in this post and forced ImgBurn to burn at 2x.
DO NOT FORCE AN UN-RATED BURN SPEED, use the slowest for that blank in the drive.

The mk4 will accept a mode1 or a mode2 formatted disc.

I loaded it in the player but this time no updating screen appeared. However, the orange light solidly turned on for some time then turned out. After about 10 minutes nothing else happened. The drive stopped making noise. Also the power led on the dvd unit doesn't come on no matter if I put a disc in or not. PLEASE help ASAP!
You could be unlucky here... you have loaded a corrupted OS with another corrupted version of os (a double whammy)....

I live in SD if anyone has a proper disc as evidently I don't know how to burn it correctly. I am willing to buy the 10 buck disc from the dealer but they said they only had one for the mk 3 and it was 36 bucks? I just wanted the newer perspective view mode! Please help. Thanks in advance!
Download an OEM un modded version of v32 OS and then burn it to disc (use imgburn) and follow the burn instructions ***to the letter*** (page1 post 1)

With luck you will resurrect your drive.

Here is a vanilla version of the v32 OS, with no mods and in mode2/form1 (it may help).
