i know this thread hasn't been posted in for a couple months, but it seems like the right spot.
i used the 8050l_fw_flasher_fixed from xbins. it said it flashed fine, but my pc will not recognize the drive and the led stays on unless there is a dvd in the drive.
i tried to make the boot disk from this thread and edited the autoexec and made the 4 bat files, but when i run it it says no cd/dvd drive. i added /r and it starts the rcovery mode flashing but ends in a couple seconds saying that the drive responded with an error.
Is there anything i can do? I hope so as i just got this drive today, followed the tutorials here and now i have a paperweight.
I don't know what you are trying to do with what type of hardware for what reason.
