Ran into an issue with my replacement PCB. I flashed it fine approx 6 days ago to LT 2.0. Worked great, could read originals and backups.
Yesterday, when I turned it on I get Unrecognized Disk (initially on a GOW3 backup that I had been playing the night before). I grabbed the original as well as a Dead Island Original to try with the same error.
I tried reflashing the drive with LT2.0 and the error continued. I then reflashed back to stock (0225) FW and was able to read the disks fine.
Did the Liteon Erase and reflashed to LT2.0 after that and got Unrecognized Disk again. Reflashed to Stock and got Unrecognized Disk as well.
Erased it again and flashed the stock again and the disks worked fine. I tried playing several games (GOW2&3, Dead Island, Mass Effect and Dragon Age 2) for a couple hours to see if it was maybe the laser acting up/dying but all the games played perfectly fine.
I then erased it a couple times again and tried flashing LT2.0 onto it and got Unrecognized Disk again. Flashed back to Stock and got Unrecognized Disk as well.
I have since that point, put the original PCB back in and it's working fine. I'd prefer not to request a replacement without making an honest effort to exhaust troubleshooting and it might just be a Noob mistake on my part.
Couple things to note...
1) Using X360USB and CK3 Pro. Works fine on other boxes and same FW files have been tested on a MCIX DVD without issue.
2) I am using the CK3 Probe Power Cable (without the Probe attached). Doubt that will have any effect, but...
3) When I first OUTRO the drive, it just sits there doing nothing at 'Sending Vendor Outro' (I have left it for up to 45 minutes) but if I click OUTRO again then it will answer with the Key Verified... Thanks C4E... every time after the first. Only does it with this PCB (first time I've used a replacement PCB so this might be normal).
