V4 and badflash
V4 and badflash

New MessageV4 and badflash (modified 0 times) Busdriver
I have a V4 Iopener, it's box claims its only 12 days old as of today, I got the last one at Circuit City yesterday morning. (Rise, no goo, torx, can't get root) Anyway; I just ordered a badflash bios, and I want to know if I've seriously ####ed up, I searched and searched, and couldn't find anything about using a badfalsh in a V4, so the question is, will it work? (I wonder this because of the different LCD and the different versions of the QNX flash stuff that V4 owners are supposed to use)
I've also ordered a 44 to 40 adaptor to use on the iopener end, and I was wondering how you guys are powering the 3.5 hard drives.

I know probably both these questions have been awnsered somwhere, and I'm an idiot to be posting this, and despite the fact I searched all day yesterday, you can use the search function and find 25 posts that awnser both these questions, and it took you less than 1/2 a second. I invite you to flame the hell out of me for my idiocy, please make fun of my nickname (which is an inside joke) while you are flaming me.

I may have posted this in the wrong forum, I'm a little confused about where this one would go... anyway, it's in both forums now :(

Sorry, my bad. Even though I'm on cable for some reason it was really slow, and didn't seem to post, I guess it doubled up though. If there is any admin that can remove my posts, please do so.

Sorry, I know this board is a mess allready.

v1 bios to replace your faulty or broken one. Clips right in any iOpener.

I used a badflash bios and a cable from him as well in my v4. Works like a charm.

Search and you'll find stuff on powering a 3.5 inch drive. I think you'll need to do some soldering for that.
