I continue with this until I lost everything. ![]() Muhuhuhahahahahaaaaarrrgggh | let us know if you managed to do it. I think it would be great help if you would make some pictures of the insides etc and post it. It's an interesting subject not just for clones or 500's. | ||

My System: DM500 | Got good & bad news for people who lost their DM500 on the killing day (04/16/08). The good news is you can fix your DM500 So, Gemini == YOU LOSE The bad news is it has nothing to do with the JTAG & stuff. Got mine fixed by IT guy. He opened it, take out a chip, flashed it with a big stuff connected to a computer. Costs me about 30 box, but it's fixed. I'm running Gemini 3.2 while searching for a reliable image working fine with a clone DM. We survived | ||

My System: DM500 | If you can post a pic of a DM500 cloned open, I can show you the chip in question. About the programmer, it was a huge thing, bigger than the DM500, he put above it in a slot a kind of chip holder where he slides the one remover from the box. He uses a computer to flash it, after 10mn, it's done! He put it back. Et voila! DM lights up, it raises from death | ||

Your friend probably has one of these all in 1 programmers, if we could find one what did the job for something like this, we may find one for £30-50 of we look in the right places | ||

My System: DM500 | He's not my friend he's an IT technician who fixes satellites. I gave him the DM & forced the entrance to his atelier. He wasn't happy to see me sticking my nose on his stuff & asking what's this & what's that I was looking for any clue to help others find a solution to revive their DMs. | ||

I could of raked it in but nevermind. You may have to see him when he's in a good mood to see what type of programmer it is | ||

| XP SP2 PC used ECP+EPP printer port setup + never use interrupt DB25 male printer connector 6 wieres + 5 resistors of 100 ohms ON printer connector short connect pin 18 to 25 and connect the last wire. rest of the wieres connect the resistors and use the schematics placed on the RDI. When You hit the connect simultaniously place the power to dream. That should do it! | ||
