I recently flashed my Artec DHM-G48 DVD-ROM drive with Winmtk Flasher. Unfortunately I accidentally flashed it with the wrong firmware. Windows froze when the progress bar in Winmtk reached 100%.
I restarted my computer but it froze during POST while detecting IDE drives. My Artec DHM-G48 is set at slave with my NEC ND-2500A at master.
My comp. will only post if I unplug the IDE Cable. I downloaded the correct firmware for the ARTEC DHM-G48 but don't know how to flash since I can't post with the drive attached.
Is there anyway to fix this?!
Thanks, Jonathan.
EDIT:
My Specs are the following:
Mobo: Soltek SL-75MRN-L
CPU: Barton 2500 with stock HSF
Vid Card: Ati Radeon 9500 softmodded to Radeon 9700
HD: WD 120GB Special Editon 8 MB cache
RAM: 2X256 MB Corsair XMS modules
DVD-+RW: NEC-ND-2500A with latest Herrie's hacked firmware.
I really hope I didn't fry the drive. For now I am going replace the Artec drive with a spare Lite-on CD Burner that I have.

I replaced the Artec drive with a lite-on CD Burner as the secondary slave and in post it gives me a secondary slave fail error. When I go into bios it displays the NEC-ND-2500A as the secondary master, but displays a jumble of letters where the lite-on drive should be in the secondary
EDIT: Problem solved.
