Where is the sata port
I know Cofree may have explained this in one of his videos a may have not looked at but when they say which port is your sata where its somethink like 0x**** where do you find this information?

Re: Where is the sata port
In "Device Manger"
Right click my computer. Go to properties. Then hardware. Then device manager.
Open up your "IDE or ATA/Atapi controllers" in the tree. Then find your sata controller.
Right click that and go to its properties. Then go to resources. Where it says resource settings
is your port #'s.
I.E. F900-FX09, F900 would be my port #1.
If there are multiples then its top to bottom, 1-4.
Or how ever many ports you may have sir.........................
No worries, I had this same problem at one time. Let us know.

Re: Where is the sata port
You can also use jungleflasher, just browse browse through the ports in the drop down, and it will display your drive name etc if thats the right port..
Re: Where is the sata port
by the way, in the 1.51 JF tut, it said we have to uninstall all the RAID SATA, my concern is do we have to unintall all of the items in "IDE ATA/ATAPI controller" i mean all the primary IDE Secord IDE ATA storage.. everything inside thatHaGGardSmurf wrote:You can also use jungleflasher, just browse browse through the ports in the drop down, and it will display your drive name etc if thats the right port..

Re: Where is the sata port
Not completely sure on that one. I was trying out Jungle Flasher but it wouldn't pick up my drive at all. Just use iPrep and follow CoFree's video tut, works like a charm!
Oh man now im reading that iPrep won't work to update firmware if you already have a different custom firmware on the drive. Am I reading this correctly? I know it's late but jesus this really means im going to have to figure out what this problem is with jungle flasher not reading the drives connected to the Connectivity Kit.

Re: Where is the sata port
I'm really confused here guys. I been reading about this but I have not had this problem.KingKoopaHN wrote:Oh man now im reading that iPrep won't work to update firmware if you already have a different custom firmware on the drive.

Is it not working just with the connectivity kits?
All I did was copy and paste firmware with my original iPrep boot drive.
I didn't make another boot drive with iPrep.
Merged my BENOFW with new 1.51 using JungleFlasher.
Then I saved that over the BENCFW file on my iPrep boot disk that I used to put old iXtreme FW on with.
Booted to drive, flashed my BENOFW, then the BENCFW that I pasted over.
Seemed like the easiest way for me..........

Re: Where is the sata port
My understanding is that if you are to use JF and need to disable your VIA, is that you disable the card via device manager, and change the extension of the dll so it is essentially deleted...wong2010 wrote:by the way, in the 1.51 JF tut, it said we have to uninstall all the RAID SATA, my concern is do we have to unintall all of the items in "IDE ATA/ATAPI controller" i mean all the primary IDE Secord IDE ATA storage.. everything inside thatHaGGardSmurf wrote:You can also use jungleflasher, just browse browse through the ports in the drop down, and it will display your drive name etc if thats the right port..
You can use iPrep but you will need to restore to original FW then flash to the new one I think...KingKoopaHN wrote:Not completely sure on that one. I was trying out Jungle Flasher but it wouldn't pick up my drive at all. Just use iPrep and follow CoFree's video tut, works like a charm!

Re: Where is the sata port
Well wouldn't reading the firmware threw dos get you the original FW? There's no point into flashing back to the original FW if it's just going to be flashed again. Can someone give us some advice on this. I would love to hear from CoFree on this maybe a video tut on flashing LiteOn upgrade from 1.4 or 1.5 to 1.51 would be awesome. (Using iPrep of course)HaGGardSmurf wrote:You can use iPrep but you will need to restore to original FW then flash to the new one I think...

I just saw sadalius video very great tut video... The problem im having though is getting the disc drive to read in jungle flasher. Do you have to disable the via card? Im so confused on just how to get the drive to be picked up by jungle flasher. I am using Vista OS, and everything ran smoothly using iPrep just having a field day using JF...


Re: Where is the sata port
you can do a upgrade to v1.51 with iprep on a lite-on
but it is some xtra steps.
you have to use jungle flasher to build the hacked v1.52 firmware
open jungle flasher "open source "
then input your orig dump (the dummy.bin file) firmware from the drive
then "open target firmware" this is the new ixtreme v1.51 firmware
now click "spoof to target"
after that you should see your key in the firmware on the bottom in the hacked firmware.
then click "save file"
now here is the different part
it will ask you to name it
you will name it "litcfw.bin"
and save it
now build a iprep flash drive
in the backup folder make 2 folders the first name 1234567 the 2nd name 12345
in that 2nd folder put the litcfw.bin
then boot on the flash and go strait to the flashing command.
flit 1234567 12345
and do what it says on the screen.
if its a samsung or benq then just redo the drive just like it was stock.
build the flash
with iprep boot on it
and the dump/flash just like the first time.
