Benq flashing problems Help

[Arlen777]

Hey guys i need ur professional advise on this:
First of all i have a laptop and i've red on many forums that it is complicated, but any ways i wanted to give it a try because i dont have desktop. And the problem is that i cant put the drive in vendor mode, so here is my problem
1. Installed Port IO, net framework
2. Hooked xbox drive to my laptop's e-sata port with "e-sata->sata cable"
3. Do the "half-tray open", but it didnt put it in vendor mode

I've tried Iprep but didnt work either same problem cant put it in vendor even after it asks to resend, power off the drive then on. So what should i do before i go a buy desktop, i was thinking to get pcmcia card, also i ordered on ebay via6421 for desktop, is there any ways i can connect it to laptop with some kind of cable or something?
Also i wanted to try PCMCIA sata card but i only have PCI Express slot on my laptop so i dont know which PCI express will work?
Also if i get this one http://www.xecuter.com.au/product_info. ... cts_id=215 will that work on any laptop or desktop?

Sorry for so many questions.
