Thanks for letting me known about your experience. I was starting to wonder if
engaging the drive for inspection purpose was a no-no. I looked somemore on the
inside and there is a little board about 1 x 2 inches that was a little loose and
could have pivoted and made contact with the main board - thats my only clue to
account for what happened. Hopefully, Meade will shed some light on this.
