CD Firmware issues on Thinkpad 380XD

I was putting some updates down on my laptop and found that after I applied the following Firmware update on my 380 XD, that I could not use the drive any longer.

Does anyone have an older version of the firmware that might allow me to revert to an older firmware?

After the process was complete it changed the drive from a Sanyo CRD-S372V to a Sanyo CRD-S300 with a firmware revision of Mini.

The drive does show up in Windows, but you cannot open the drive without using a paper clip and it does not read any disks that are put into the drive.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Glen
