Hey guys,
Ok I put an old hit47 drive in a TS ms28 box. Followed haggard's tutorial on exactly that (good tutorial btw) and everything worked great. Only thing is I think I flashed Original firmware so now it won't play backups but it does play actual games. My question is how do I reflash it to ix1.51? Do I flash it as a Sammy or Hitachi? I alredy tried flashing it as a hitachi but it won't let me. It tells me this

Dumping f/w of Hitachi 0046/0047 by Ram Upload Method via WIN32 API
UnLocked!
................................
Drive rev undetermined, Aborting!

Thanks in advance

Been a while since I have done a hitachi, but you need to restore the drive before doing anything else. Then, if the original drive that came out of the drive was a sammy, you would need to spoof the hitachi as a sammy. I'm not at my flashing computer at the moment, but it can be done. It took me a few minutes to figure it out first time I ever spoofed a hitachi as a different drive.

Do I restore it to the original Sammy or stock hitachi?

Well if its on stock FW at the moment, there is no need to restore, just flash the drive as if its never been flashed before.

Except you can skip the step where you dump the drive, just load up your sammy ofw as source, load up hitachi 1.51 as target, click spoof, and proceed to flash the drive like its never been touched before.

Ok did all that and the flash went good for the 1.51 but now it has a red light on the bottom right quadrant. ?

Turn on your T.V it should give you an error code probably e64 or e65. Which means something went bad with your flash.
