okay so I was trying to flash my drive and then when I put the probe on to the part of the disc drive that you need to a little bit of smoke came out of the top
of the drive and when I went to try and turn it on again the laser in my drive lights up red, is there anyway to fix this or is it broken, the drive also doesn't come up on my pc anymore :(

Edit: heres a picture... is it fixable ?? or do I need a brand new.

Does the xbox pick up the drive or is your power button LED flashing?

Nope - you need to replace like for like.

What's worse is you'll more than likely need to RGH for the DVD key.

I would strongly recommend finding someone local to you.

Had problem like this. I didn't fix it, but it was possible to get drive key from it (in my case)

Try PhatKey or MRA hack. You still need new PCB
