Lite-on drive help please

[m9g]

Hi can someone help please

I need to flash a lite-on DG-16D2S with FW 74850C and I'm a little confused.

I have a connectivity pro kit and believe I'm going to need a probe kit to go with it, I see that there is now a probe V2 available, is this ok for what I need?

Also what is the LT 1.5 switch for? do i need this aswell or not?

I have also read I can do this without the probe by soldering the r707 - the picture of where to solder wasnt a little clear as said need to solder a wire but didnt show a wire soldered on the board.

Yes to get the key from a 7 series drive you need to probe the R707 on the PCB.

Probe V1 Is what you will need however the V2 probe will do the function of a Probe V1 but also get the firmware from a liteon drive through the MRA Hack

The switch/clip is also for the MRA hack

ok thanks, so probe V2 will be ok for what i want?

What is the MRA hack? i take it i dont need this just to flash then?

The v2 probe can do same as a V1. The MRA Hack includes cutting traces and resoldering

having a little problem here, can anyone help please

I have received the probe V2, opened the drive half way, fired up JF, the drive is showing in JF, I stick the probe on the correct point on the drive and green light comes on the probe, I click on the DVDkey32 tab and I get a message saying "warning - bad serial data"

I have all the necessary cables plugged in from the ck3 pro to the dvd drive I also have the sata cable plugged in from my pc. Do I HAVE to have a serial cable aswell from the pc to ck3 pro?

Problem is if I do I dont have a serial cable or serial port on the back of my pc.

Are the usb drivers for the ck3 kit installed

[m9g]

Hi

Ummmm no. Does it need usb driver? as it isnt connected via usb?

I was following your sticky on how to do it and it shows a serial cable also connected to the ck3 aswell as all the other cables


Regards

Yes it will need a usb lead in and drivers installed.

[m9g]

right so when you say usb do you mean usb one end of the cable and serial connector the other end? otherwise I cant see where a usb cable would go into the ck3?

has the drive been flashed before? i had the "warning - bad serial data" message when i tried to reflash one that had already been flashed.

[m9g]

ah i see so thats instead of a serial cable?, right i think i have one of the around here somewhere, any idea where i can get the driver that you mention from?

Also is there anything i should be doing with the probe v2, i.e the 18-20-22 switch and the push switch thing on the end that lights up an orange light that says standby
