HDD GURU FORUMS

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?

email Ace they have a manual for script kiddies

I guess forum member ANN (peohere) here made a manual for this long time back
ask her about it (sure not free)

good luck
