Hi guys,
I want to know if there is any way to check that my Maximus USB probe is still working. Whatever i try i always get the "bad serial data" message.
I think im doing it the right way. Tray half open. probing the sweet spot and then hitting the button in JF. Same message everytime. Its a stock Liteon 7485 and I just want to retrieve the DVD key so I can get going on the flashing part. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Fillawen

This method can only be used one time I believe. has it been dumped and flashed before?

are you following the jungle flasher tut?
I am wondering if i have messed up my probe. Accidently touched the metal near the point. Read somewhere that might mess things up. Is there any way to check if the probe is working correctly?

I do believe that if you have new dash, a maximus probe will not work. maybe someone else can verify
