well get a good orig benq (for your drive)firmware from here.

Get a hacked benq firmware from xbins

have a read over this spoofing guide.
it is for putting a sam/benq in a hit console

what you have to do is get your key from the hit dvd drive.
use firmware toolbox to put your key in a good orig or hacked benq firmware.
then with firmware toolbox spoff the firmware to report as a hit firmware.

in the end you will have a
benq firmware that is hacked and spoffed for flashing in a hit drive.

followed the instructions to the tee but and still in trouble
the firmware is fine as far as i can see
the prob is the erasing as i continue to get a bad drive state
at the start od fben i have an x80
i turn on the xbox and i get a x78 and the erase starts but nothing happens
next i get a line about bad drive state
next it goes to the write section
again i follow the instructions
start with an x80
turn on the drive and get an x78 and firmware starts to write
but bad drive state comes up
been at it for 3 hours with no success
any more info on where im going wrong

sorry to be such a pain
