Fried Liteon And Ck3 Connectivity Kit
« on: May 15, 2009, 04:50:00 AM »

Hi All
I have a ( or had one should I say) Xbox with a Liteon DG16 drive and a CK3 connectivity kit. I had flahsed the drive successfully iwth 1.5 using Iprep and Serial cable, ( my WinXp does not recognise the SATA drives) some time ago . I have the all the key id for the drive.
Today I tried to flash with 1.51. I had the connectivity kit hooked up as before. Blue Cable to drive, serial to PC and molex to CK3, Probe was attahced. I swithed pc on and the then switched CK3 on but smoke started to come out of Liteon. Feeling optimistic I tried again but CK3 LED was red.
Question 1 is Can I replace drive with any brand of drive and flash with the liteon Key and 1.51. IF so recommendation on which drive, IF it has to be a Liteon where can I get one from .
Question 2- What do you think happned. I am almost certain all the power cables were in the right way. ( after all it is pretty difficult not to since they have guides)
Thanks for your help.
Lou
