Hi
I got a flashed benq drive with ixtreme 1.5. I dont have the OFW or the CFW backup. Can I still get the key from the flashed benq drive iincase I wanna upgrade it to 1.51 (or when 1.60 is out).

A few pointer towards the right direction would be nice

Thanks.

You would flash it just like it was fresh out of the box. Just make sure that you keep the copy of the BenOFW.bin.

If you haven't already check this out:

RKD nailed it, you could look here to see how to flash it as Cofree has a video showing you how.

i would recommend you doing that.
dump the drive(only dump)
after you get a firmware dump then just power down (if using iprep)

restart in windows and save a copy of that backup folder
in at least one place off your pc.
that way if any think happens to the drive you have a backup of the info you need to get the console going.

Thanks all for the reply. I have a go at it when ixtreme 1.6 is out

Checked the video b4 I posted, wasnt too sure if I can dump from a flashed drive.

sorry for the bad chance for the user name, i always use "kill" in front and Im register with too many forum using the same user name all the time and password so I started to "kill<website>" instead. Dont mean anything bad here, I find this site brilliant for tutorial and answer.
