hi guys, me again. you still there? went back to the old notebook (piece of crap) the other day. i need to reflash the thing. i've got everything i need, the software, the cable. problem i'm having is the usb boot bridge. i've tried bits of wire and screwdrivers, but to no avail. what i did next was to remove a section of the casing and solder a piece of wire across the points. still no use. let me run through a couple of points as i understand - maybe i'm missing something. there seems to be a square of four points on the bottom edge of the board. i'm assuming its the lower two that are the usb boot points. i've got a photo but can't see nowhere to upload. if i have correctly bridged then when plugging in usb cable netbook will not turn on. i will get some kind of notification from pc (xp) new device detected. anyone any ideas?
