Does your dashboard still have the panels where you hit right bumper and left bumper to cycle through, or do you have the new dashboard where you scroll up and down, and you have to make your own avatar?

Hmm, then there is no way to get the key without the drive.

What happened with the drive? What kind of drive was it? How did you lose the backup files? Did you flash with JF and if so did you save the log? The key will be in the log.

Well using iprep, when you type dsam, you dump the ofw, and it is saved on the usb stick, then you can flash the drive and reboot into windows, then open the usb stick, and look in the backups folder for your OFW, then save that in a few places.
