It's in Danish since I'm Danish But Forsæt means Continue and Afslut means Cancel/Abort. Haven't clicked anything yet since I'm to scared to do it

Never had these kinds of problems with the 78, lite-on 74/83, benq... :'(

[FoolzRailer]

I'll try and translate what it says:

There was an unresolved exception in the program. If you click "Fortsæt" the program will ignore the error and try to continue. If you click "Afslut" the program will terminate.

The objectreference is not adjusted to the presence of an object.

Pretty rough translation, but I hope it means more to you than me :/

[HaGGardSmurf]

I have no clue what that means, usually error boxes that look like that have to do with .net framework, or something to do with a framework.

Is your .net updated to 3.x (I think 3.x is the highest .net available, anything over 2.0 should work with JF)

[FoolzRailer]

When I click the What.Net.exe it says I got .Netframework 3.5. I don't if it's just an erorr since it can't see the drive or what not? I'm just more worried about brick'ing the drive :/ (Still haven't touched it)

[louisM92]

if you brick the drive then the worst thing that can happen is that you have to buy a new drive, as long as you have that key your safe, as for that error box i dont know what the problem could be :/

[FoolzRailer]

Alrighty, I think I'm going to hit the Continue button see what happens, if it bricks, I have another Hitachi 78 drive which is already flashed, would it be possible to put that into the Xbox 360 ? That way replacing the brick'ed one with the already flashed 78?

[FoolzRailer]

I hit the continue and anti-climax nothing happened Repeated the steps I did before with the 1.55JF same result.
Now I've also tried using "Podger Hitachi 79 Unlock" Using the Slax disc to get it into Mode-B and following those steps I still can't get the drive to be found in Windows. It just doesn't register. Honestly I think the drive is cursed!

[HaGGardSmurf]

haha I'm beginning to think the same man

If you want to put another drive in this xbox you will need to flash the key into the drives FW. The key is just that, its a key that allows you to play xbox games on that xbox without the key, your xbox is locked to only playing dvd's.

The key is unique to each xbox.

[FoolzRailer]

Alright cheers for the help guys, I know I've been a real pain in the ass but I appreciate all the help you've given me

The xbox still works, though it's still stock firmware.

Again thanks for taking the time to respond to my frantic ranting

[louisM92]

noo your not being a pain thats why the forum is here for to help people give the 78 a go and see if it flashes, if it does then happy days!

[HaGGardSmurf]

Yea man thats why the forum's here

Over half of all the hitachi's i'd say act up while trying to flash for whatever reason. Good news is you got the key, so you can just spoof in a benq or lite-on and flash LT. You can use a sammy as well but LT is not available for it as of yet.

If you dont plan on playing online, you can use any FW you like, and use any drive. I'd advise against another hitachi since most of them are a pain.

[who_be_dat]

Click play audio 79 right well the drive is closing, hitachi 79 was the first 360 drive i flashed.
