Can you pull the module, and see what model number it has? It may be a bad drive. The Pismo had one version that was prone to errors. Mine died. I suppose you bought your Pismo used? Is it still under warranty? I think the model number of the bad drive is 8080B or something along those lines. It's made by LG. -- -Jon Glass Krakow, Poland <mailto:jonglass@;usa.net> <mailto:glasshaus5@;aol.com> "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." --Benjamin Franklin -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
