I received a new drive cable frrom David a few weeks ago. I finally attached it this eve. After install, the player does not power up, in the car or using the wall plug. I doublechecked and finally reinstalled the old cable. After reinstalling old drive cable now the player is functional.

Any idea what may cause this? another bad cable? I should at least get a "no drive" error.. correct?

David, I will be contacting you tomorrow via emails I guess..
