Help! Unable to flash my benq drive anymore

[sfp]

Hi all,

This issue is driving me absolutley crazy, hopefully someone can help with good advice:)

I'be flashed my Benq an friend's Benq drives a few tiems already. The 2 recent times I've done so were using my current system: Windows 7 64.

Last two flashes were: stock --> 1.61 and 1.61 --> LT 1.0

These upgrades were done using my onboard Intel SATA.

Now, here is were trouble begins:

Recently, I attempt to upgrade friend's 1.61 -->Lt 1.0 and have issues with being able to detect/see the drive with DOSFlash and latest JF. When I finally see it via DOSFLash I attempt to flash it and it freezes at Writing Bank 0. (had friend bring back drive via his home setup, using iPrep I believe

I then try to see if I can detect my drive, in order to upgrade to LT 1.1 and can't recognize/see that drive at all. I play it safe, and even order the appropriate VIA chipset sata card only to get the same exact issue.

Any suggestions? Why this issue all of a sudden?

Thanks!

That was just on one occasion, with friend drive, which another friend helped restore.

My issue now is simple recognition. no matter what I seem to do, I cannot get my PC with DOSFlash or JF to even see my BenQ.

Drive is functioning.

Thanks.
