Hey guys i need some help here, i am a newbie, but not to electronics,
All the cuts and connections (soldering etc) looks perfect, BUT...

I connect the power and nothing, 'no drive detected' on jungle flasher, and the drive doesnt open/respond in any way.

Ideas?

why are you using a out dated hack ? would of been so much easier to use a probe to get the key etc. try and post a picture of what you done so far

soldering looks far from perfect mate I would say it is bridged solder joint by the looks :smile:

oooh thats bridgeing everywhere. remove it all and clean up the excess solder would be the first job mate.

start over but only get solder on trace you are repairing. any on the gridded area adjacent will short out the whole pcb. small pieces of wire will do held across the trace gap and then apply solder to the top of the wire to create your new trace.
