xbox 360 benq rom stays running

Post by ranski1999 »

I flashed my benq with iprep 008.8 with firmware 1.51 and after I flashed it. I put the rom back in the xbox
and now it spins up to speed for 5 min and it will not read the disc. I reflashed to orig and it still spins up to speed
but don't read the disc.. It just spins. like it is stuck spinning :(

can someone help me fix this. :?:

Check that the connections are in tight on both the motherboard and the drive

Then your flash is bad. Reflash the drive if that doesn't fix the problem then you may just have an ugly paperweight

Load the original firmware into jungle to check that it reports being a valid dump then as above reflash it again.

Hey man we all make mistakes and sometimes Sh*t just happens. These drives aren't perfect and sometimes they will just fail. But as long as you have the key from the original firmware you'll just need to buy a replacement benq which is about 35 bucks plus shipping.
