Was this a case of connecting red lead to Pin 1?
Just interested, 'cos it happened to me (and many others I believe). Apparently, 'Pin 1' on the clock port isn't 'Pin 1' proper. This throws convention out the window and the Catweasel instructions are very vague on this.
So vague, that I got mine repaired free when the supplier agreed about the vague instructions.
So, if you fried a track through this problem, yes it can be fixed quite easily.
Cheers,

I have been quoted 40+euro's +p&p to fix it worth it?
