For a stock drive, the only way is to bridge the R707 point. You can also do an MRA hack if you are confident with soldering.

You can also try making a diy one: http://robinhoodsplayground.com/forum/v ... 101&t=3967" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Used this for ages and so far no problems (obviously no good if the drives got lt firmware on though)

well i've always used the diy probe wired into my ck3. Easy enough and you can solder the wire onto a needle or similar, you just miss out on the sexy led's

if you are going to do it without a probe then you need to solder the 707slick8 wrote:can i bridge it with a pin or something else?
