problems with 74850c

[peacock]

hi - trying to get the neceesaary files from this liteon drive its a liteon 74850c from a 2008 xbox 360..never been flashed before..anyway i understand that the only way to extract the key, identify and enquiry files is ny using a rs232 cable, unfortunately i do not have a pc with a rs232 cable port...i have a rs232 to usb adaptor which shows up in jf but doesnt seem to be working..see log below...i am using a ck3 pro connectivity kit, have the necessary ck3 usb drivers installed, also the port IO drivers...along with the drivers for this rs232 to usb adaptor....any help and advice...ta

Its likely an issue with the rs232 to usb adaptor.

If you have the ck3 pro, use the usb that is on the ck3.

If you have the lite, then you should see if you can track down a friend or another PC with rs232 you can use, and try dumping your drive that way.

You can flash on your home computer if you like since the rs232/usb is only used for dumping.

i do have the ck3 pro connectivity kit with the probe..and i did use the ck3 usb ,but it does not find any com port....still gives the same error message...just another thought, when i insert the probe tip into the r707 point is the green light on the probe suppose to go blue as well as the other one ?...cos mine stays green and the top one blue..?

when the probe is not touching only the blue should be lit, when it is touching the blue and green should be lit, double check your set up and drivers, even the things which you may think you have right could be wrong ive done stupid things many times and slapped myself for it because it was something so basic lol

ok i c ....when my probe is not touching i have the blue and green light on....when its touching the r707 hole..the blue and green light are still on, however the green light dims slightly...checked everything...seems to be connected ok...what about the blue/red light on the ck3 board, its for the hitachi drive i think..is that suppose to left blue or red ?...i leave it on blue...

[HaGGardSmurf]

It should be blue, red is mode b, and generally isnt used since it can confuse jungle flasher.

Your probe may have a problem, it should only be green when touching the r707.

I

Your probe may have a problem, it should only be green when touching the r707.

ok cheers..

..my probe is green and blue all the time , regardless of wether its touching the r707 point or not...something wrong there..

[louisM92]

defo something wrong with your probe, had it happen to me before but it fixed itself luckly enough

[peacock]

been trawling the net looking for a solution, seems like i may somehow shorted out the probe...looks like a new probe will be needed ...whats the cheapest place to get one from ?, just the probe and in the uk

[HaGGardSmurf]

CK3.co.uk is one of the better site's, and cheaper... They ship worldwide, but theyre also in the UK, you might want to check them out.

[peacock]

ta mate...around £18 delivered...hmmm...see if i can get it cheaper elsewhere...if not then ill have to get it..

[louisM92]

im sure it doesnt cost a tener to ship something so small! i didnt pay that much for my probe over a year ago now from the same guys

[HaGGardSmurf]

I paid probably double that when I bought mine.

Then again I bought the ck3 + probe and had them shipped overnight.

[peacock]

its out of stock...left details with them so they will email when its available....can the drive be dumped without the probe?...been reading about bridging the r707 point with a flat head screwdriver....see image attached which i found...but not too sure about the other point that is also bridged...if both points need bridging can i use a tweezer held over both points...?

[louisM92]

you could possibly use a tweezer, give it a go, if it dont work then use a screwdriver
