I just installed the LK202 in my pc drive bay with the included kit, and nothing happens. The screen does not light up or anything. I used the supplied power cable. I tried a couple of the freebie programs, but they don't seem to work. Did I miss something?

Ok, I know what happened. I used a regular floppy power chord. Does this meen the display is shot? I guess the trick is to read the instructions before the installation. Duh!!

Ouch... yes the display is problaby dead... there is nothing that can be done to repair it either. Send Adam in sales a e-mail, stating what happened and he will give you some options.

You're kidding right? The first thing I've always seen on opening an MO box is a power connection warning... add that to the little warning paper cover they put over the power socket and it makes it very difficult to get wrong :smile: I guess it's just eagerness that causes the occasional LCD frying??

Yeah, the warnings were adequate, I just tore through it like a kid at christmas. A $70 lesson in self control!
