My a103 is dead long live my a103..not half

I've just flashed my pioneer 103 with the 1.90 upgrade and none of my blanks will work? at x1 or x2 in prassi or nero..in nero it says burner power calibration error and in prassi some kind of read error with lots of numbers. I can't downgrade the firmware as it's the newest...please help..I need it back urgently..thx Also pioneer blanks won't work either, the only discs that will are my dvd-rw's..please help someone or is my 103 for the skip? Hold the bus guys, it's suddenly started working again. I put a cdr in and went to nero to test if I could burn a music cd and it did' went back to prassi and tried a bulkpaq dvdr at x2 and it worked, could the cdr burn have recalibrated the burner?? I'll keep you posted...great THe latest is no such luck,I get the odd burn that works but 99.9% of the time it just says read error.. I've followed the threads re: backflshing to an earlier version but all confusing to me and some info appears to conflict..even in faq's section.. please please please can someone out there post a reply on a idiots guide to writing over v1.90 to v1.68 or earlier

prassi error message 

Prassi displays this every time it try's to start a write..I've tried the drive in PIO mode: the message-(error-10 at sector 624-disc read error-command:2a sense:03asc:73ascq:03) hope this helps...in finding out my problem

I don't want to sound like an a$$hole but really............this is the third thread you opened with the same subject, don't you think it's kind of to much !? If U would use search function U would find answer here: Hope this helps, if not please inform us :)

No sir It didn't 

I followed it to the letter, but it gets to 0% flashed and an error (offset=00000) comes up, here's my my nero fault log to look at,

1. turn of DMA on you A03 if you don't know how ssearch the forum ;) 2. try to burn at 1x !! not 2x and do it in primo not nero. bulkcrap sucks (some people got good discs some people- me & bunch of others got BAD discs), don't use it for now, try to use Pioneer or some other quality media for now, so you can isolate the problem and say ok it's not the media.

disks 

disks I've tried pioneer, bulpaq, princo, datasafe disks and all the same. tried at x1 and x2, and Pio mode (dma off)? but the only one that works every time is my dvd'rw?
