Try setting the charger to a lower cell count if you can. Like maybe 1 or 2 cells. That might make it so it detects the pack. Then you can slowly bump the voltage and keep addin cella to the charger setting untill you get the voltage up to a reasonable range.

As far as reviving the pack... I found that a very slow charge and discharge will sometimes bring a seemingly dead pack back to life. Set the charger for the cycleing mode and then charge it at a super low rate like .1amps and then discharge at the same low rate. Do this a few times until you start to see the capacity of the battery come back.

Unfortunatly, thr pnch of thrnpack never rally seemed to recover for me. Once it went dead it might get most of thr capacity back but the punch is pretty weak after that.
