All, They can be repaired. I put the info in the TWiki as well here's the blurb.
LG has put out information on how to "correct" the problem of a dead drive to to an MDK install. Got to LG's Website (http://us.lgservice.com/ ) Click on the Devices Icon and then choose cdrom from the list. Click the link Dead.gif to get the instructions and then grab the correct firmware from the same page as Dead.gif to get the needed firmware. And yes. You need to do it from a M$ box. James
