Archos AV420 Live Again.

From my previous blog entry you can see that the hd of my archos died on me. Well, i am proud to say that i have fixed it myself and it is working... Better than before! Wuhoo! I bought a new hd form ebay and waited for about 10 days for it to arrive. When it got here i immediately went to work. I found a website that had a simple instruction on how to replace the hd and dismantled it immediately. Unscrewed all the screws and tried to detach the old hd but there was something holding it in place. Went to the website again and I found out that there were two screws on the flip side of the board, its on the back of the LCD. So I moved the LCD a little bit and unscrewed it. Then installed the new hd. Because of the excitement of it all, I tried to put it all back immediately. Boy, was I wrong! It wasnt that easy! I cant seem to close the case tightly. After 3-4 tries of detaching and attaching everything all over again, I found out that I hadnt screwed the hd on tight enough. So after more or less 2hours (which I thought would take me 30mins max!), I had put everything back! Turned it on, and....wuhooooo! Its working again! I just had to reformat the HD so I can get all the appropriate folders in place. It was better than before because of a techy bit that is too hard to explain here.
