Funny LED glitch

Post by <(00<)bluepunk(> »

Ok so i installed a Fan LED but it seems to Flash as the GDroms or CDR's are being read. Meaning when there is no CD in the tray the LED is off But when a CD is in the tray the light starts going on and off as the Laser runs up and down on the llittle rail reading the CD. as soon as the cd stops being read the LED turns off again. :lol:
I was stupid enough to keep putting a warez link into my sig.. even after an admin removed it.. twice... I'm such a bloody moron. Oh well.. and now i'm banned too. boo hoo.

Thats gotta be a cool effect. Move that to the side and make it a gd-rom activity light. Then just hook up to the psu for your fan light.
Also can you post pics of where you drew your power from? That's something I'd actually like to do on mine.

That just means you have a loose wire, and when the disc isn't spinning, the wire isn't moving and touching the supply. Or the wire on the LED leg isn't soldered on, but inside a solder hole.
Why doesn't HTML work anymore on this damn forum!? God!

Your sig broke the rules.
You had a second chance.
You put the sig back.
You blew your chance away.
