HI, i have a bmw mk3 nav drive in my ztt,
now i suspect it may be dead but i would like to think im wrong,

basiclly it worked fine but i got a update disc and put that into the drive, after a while i didnt think anything was happening, the red power light was solid red all the time i left it a fair while and the light never went out so i pulled the plug, since then i dont have the power light on, it will take the update disc and you hear the drive run up make a few noises then repeat a few times and then eject the disc,
now i tried the key cd that i got at the same time and when i insert that the drive sounds like it is spooling up the disc and reading it as it runs alot longer and then gently slows down and ejects the disc as though it has done its job,

could i just have a very poor update disc?
is there hope? or should i just give up and get another drive?

Thanks
Nathan
