Today, i have testet the service from A-FF Repair station... not unlocked...


Can I not the sector erase directly, or disable the PW in the Diag Terminal ?

Hmmm I should be more specific.

First read ATA Spec (PDF/DOC)

Then you need send commands VIA I/O PPRT (PATA/SATA)

Using ATAPWD... never used it.. But you will need to know what 0x20h is in ascii if you want to use that software
