Sam-ofw.bin only 1kb

Post by kallardnyc »

Using the 360 Blaster NE on my MS28. After booting up and doing 10 second trick, I use dsam and it goes to 01% and then kicks the ORIG.BIN wrong size error. I checked the Backup file and the Sam-cfw.bin is 256kb, but the Sam-ofw.bin is only 1kb.

Any ideas? Done it like 50 times. I am using iPrep 101 v. 006

after it does a good dump it will be 256 for starters.

i could have used a little more info. ;)

first take the blaster out and try it the same way you are doing it now.
if that dont work then try a different boot drive.try a different flash try a floppy.we dont like using a floppy but it cant hurt doing a dump with one.
if you have to you can flash with it as long as you know its a good drive and floppy disc.

it sounds like you are close you just have to get the drive dumping.
let me know what happens.

Like CoFree said, I would try it without the blaster and see if it will give you a good dump. If you can get it to dump without the blaster, then you know where to focus your troubleshooting. There isn't much you can replace on the blaster to test it though besides the sata cables.
