Anyone Know

[kryptic]

Got a liteon drive sent me , when i plug it into the ck3 device the blue led on the ck3 flashes and the drive will not respond when pressing the eject button on the ck3 , anyone know what the problem is thank`s

[sadalius]

That could be the drive or the ck3. Have you done a lite-on with this ck3 before?

[dalecheesy]

Sounds like its been dumped and partially erased but i don't know why the led is flashing. Wonder if it's been plugged in upside down and burnt or if it maybe a problem with your ck3, have you tried it on another drive? Never known a ck3 to flash.

[kryptic]

I thought it might be the ck3 so hooked it up to a spare drive and it worked ok , so its looking like its the liteon drive thats the problem then , is there anything i can do with that besides launching it out of the window.lol

yes done a few with the ck3

[dalecheesy]

Sounds like someone has tried to flash it and failed. No chance of using dosflash commands on it? Might be game over for it mate

[kryptic]

yeah think it might be , will have another play with it tomorrow and see what happens , thanks for the input its appreciated.

He said he has had a go at flashing it and failed to do anything with it and the soldering is a bit of a mess , so maybe that is the problem

[dalecheesy]

Fingers crossed mate. Keep us posted.

well if even one spot of solder was crossed with a different point than the 707 to the other 707.
and the power was put to it .
i would bet its game over for that dvd drive.

Just an update , can get the dvd drive to eject before the blue led flashes but once the led starts to flash there is no response from the drive no matter what i do.I have given up on it now.

if you put it in a 360 (any 360) right now.
will it play a movie or open
anything.

[kryptic]

I will try that today then and see what happens.I tried that many things yesterday that in the end i could not remember what i had tried and what i had not tried , gave myself a pounding headache.lol

[kryptic]

Put it in a 360 it would only eject the tray , nothing else.I`m going to send it back , spent enough time on it now.

[kryptic]

The bloke has just been in touch with me , he recieved his drive back this morning he put it back in the 360 and it still plays originals , so i dont know what was up with it when i had it.

hahaha
well you were doing something wrong you can bet
it happens man

[kryptic]

When i couldn`t get the drive to be recognised in jungleflasher and iprep i thought it might have been the ck3 so i hooked up a spare liteon i have and both programs recognised that straight away , he has just told me it will eject out but will not go back in he has to push it back in , dont know if that sheds any light on the situation.
