I fixed my drive tonite. Thanks for your advice about the PSU. I tried with a 300W causing Windows and Hyperterminal to freeze when powering up the Barracuda. Switching to a 450W PSU pulled the trick. 2 notes : i have firmware SD25 i followed this excellent tutorial http://www.mapleleafmountain.com/seagatebrick.html but before regenerating the partitions pull out the sata power cable and wait 1 minute (not doing so caused a very long wait and nothing happened) Thanks BlouBul you made my day.

I've got the setup of this guy (http://www.mapleleafmountain.com/seagatebrick.html) and i get just till the moment that i have to power on my sata drive. Sata data cable not attached Thanks for having a look at this. Dirk I do hope your SATA data cable is not connected? Otherwise give more info of exactly what you are trying to commit there, since I normally leave my crystal ball at work and do not have access to it during weekends.

Hi people, i'm also trying to unbrick my seagate but at the moment when i power on my harddrive some moments later hyperterminal and windows xp freezes. Can somebody help me ?
