Title: Liteon Drive Help Needed Will Pay To Fix!
Post by: ps2moduk on November 02, 2008, 04:44:00 PM

good luck with that. Does the drive still work by any chance? And what was you doing with the soldering iron?

sucks to say it but things like that happen heh .. how else would you be able to learn hah

anyway the best way that i found to do this is to just use two small screw drivers and just touch the two points while you have a friend hit the enter key for you heh works like a charm on about 10 lite ons i have done so far.

hope that helps.

See the two holes circled in red? just carefully scrape of the laquer with a sharp knife and solder tx and rx directly to them... no bridging needed.

I did something similar with my first lite-on so don't worry about it.

I think it looks worse than it really is so don't worry about it. Someone should be able to patch it  up and extract the key without too much work. I'd check out the installers thread for someone in the UK that can help you.

I dont mind helping out mate, I have all the equipment and can take a photo of my lite-on board if you want to see my solder job.

Cleanup with some solder cleaner and then make a foto, after that we'll be able to assess the damage. If you pay shipping to the netherlands (both ways) I can probably fix your board.
