Just wanted to clear out that you don't need a connectivity kit to be able to flash, it just makes it a bit easier. Without the kit you can power the drive with the 360 instead.

I had a problem with iPrep (or actually DOSFlash) semi-freezing when it detected my card while the SATA cable was connected to the drive. When removing the SATA it listed the card fine.

I then used JF and flashed it without problems!

I think what he is trying to say is that "normal" users should use the iXtreme 1.6 FW (repack for Lite-On) while the newer 1.6 0800 only is interesting for those ripping original games from disc using a dedicated drive. --------- IXtreme v1.6 0800 fw for Benq, Samsung and Liteon drives! Fe...

Not much info about your setup!

The ben-ofw.bin error appears because it hasn't yet been extracted as the first step fails.

What SATA do you have? VIA card?

Try Jungleflasher

Also, bans are usually done in waves, and there hasn't been one for a while. It's also a difficult criteria to suggest when people's DVD-ROMs can die of natural causes. ;) Exactly! What if your console was repaired, or if the cable wasn't attached properly from factory? Even if you would replace th...

Like a bad movie with a good ending! Lol!

Nice you got it working!

I also bought a cheap RROD console with a Hitachi drive. The warranty sticker didn't look so good but i sent it in and got a refurbished console with a BenQ drive. When opening it (i perfectly removed the warranty sticker) i can see that it's a modified 360 with extra heatsinks. Flashed it and works...

It's the ixDef file from this page: http://robinhoodsplayground.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=112&t=48" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I had problems some time ago to load the newest ixDef to an older iPrep. I had to manually put the 1.6 in the "old" ixDef even tho...

read the label on top of the drive it WILL tell you what dvd drive it is

I guess this was a more convenient way to check if you were unlucky having a Lite-On drive before the times of iX1.5

BTW. You already posted this and got an answer in this thread:

You cannot! This is unfortunately not a restriction in the drive firmware, otherwise it may have been possible to override.

It seems some people with this problem select the correct port in JF or run the l-o-eras command and erase even though no drive is detected. Try this a few times until you Maybe get a FF72.

Opening tray and pushing it halfway in does nothing for this prob right?

Thanks for all the advice! I pretty much solved it! Whatever i do, DOSFlash still crashes on me. However, i feel a little retarded. I got it working in JF after using the open/close tray method. Before, i pressed eject on my CK3 then pushed it halfway in. Now i instead pressed eject, then close and ...

if you have a floppy you should be able to flash a benq drive just fine you will have trouble if its a lite-on drive keep in mind it will take a few min for firmtool to run after the firmware dump and it will not look like it is doing anuthing but dont touch it till firmtool runs do it like the vid...

I have a pretty old 2.4Ghz single core computer from 2003. This is also when the latest BIOS was released which i already have installed (Asus P4PE board). Maybe i should just try using another computer (if i can get hold of one), which kinda frustrates me as it worked fine when i flashed the drive ...
