Hi.

Anyone familiar with the scripting language in PC3K?

Sometimes on de-magnetization problems i have discovered that re-starting the drive many many times will make it reach the ready state.

For this i have created a vb script that presses the power button, reads the status registers by getting "pixel-position color", sleeps for 30 sec and repeats the process until the drive reaches ready state. When reaching the ready state an email is sent to my iphone ;)

This solution is kind of tacky and relies on that many parameters match, screen resolution for example.

I was wondering if it is possible to do this from within the PC3K software itself. Have scanned through pc3k forum but no luck.

Anyone?
