see if it can read DVDs at all. the neo 2.2 is known to damage the laser if no capacitor is installed on pin 2 of the chip, and will destroy the DVD laser sooner or later.

Is there any truth in this. i've just put a neo 2.2 in a 3003 v4 without a capacitor. The site where I got the chip said that the hx had been improved, 'timing issues had been resolved and a capacitor was no longer needed '. can anyone comment on this
