Re: firmware help
Redump the drive if its still working or have you erased it or something?? Getting the firmware isn't the problem you need a valid key to inject into it.

Re: firmware help
Dalecheesy, I have one problem like int03h, I dont have my firmware original, but I have the key, where I can get one firmware and how I put my key in this firmware?
Re: firmware help
on a benq dvd drive
the only reason you would need a orig firmware is if you are going to take it back to orig .
and at that point it would no longer play backup games.
you still can get a orig firmware but it is a lot harder now.
like dalecheesy said
the big thing here guys is your key
if your drive is playing orig or backups now
then you are fine.
start the dump/flash over
but
this time just dump your dvd drive
do not flash.
then save that key in more than one place
and at least one place off your pc.
you hijacked this thread
but
its cool (just a little rude)
any way
like i said up top getting a orig firmware is going to be hard right now.
they are copy righted
so most site will not post them for download.

The the key I just saved the bin so when I loaded 1.5 firmware I never loaded with the key and when I power up the 360 and load a backup I get to play this game u need to put it in a 360 consul this is the first drive I have done so still learning all the steps what is the progy called or wich one to use to get the key also thanks for all your replys guys.
Re: firmware help
okay went to iprep and tried to read firmware got the ok's but gave me a error no valid key think it might be a brick is there a way to get the drivekey off the 360 so i can use a diff drive.

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
Re: firmware help
Added the extenson ".bin" to the end of that file and loaded it into Firmware Toolbox.
It's the right size BUT it's not your key buddy.
Looks like BenQ CFW iXtreme 1.51 with the key of 77777777777777777777777777777777.
You could of tried File Recovery software on the USB Drive but I think it's past that now as you've formated and rewrote to it.
Sorry int03h but your box looks dead m8.
