Epoxy Removal Video HowTo for Xbox 360 DVD drives
>> Team MODFREAKz posted a great video-howto on youtube explaining how to remove the epoxy resin ('glue') Microsoft puts on chips inside Xbox360 DVD drives to prevent you from accessing ic-legs and solderpoints. The video will explain you how to remove it using a simple scalpel and an hotair-gun (that's not the same as a hairdryer, you'll need a temperature around 80-90C/176-194F). The technique has not yet been tested in those new DVD drives with 'black glue' (like the H-LG v0078fk), so it's unknown if it works as well with those.
