Ok. Had a Liteon and when I went to get the key, it said error invalid something and then mmy computer just blew up! Can't even turn it on. Good news is the xbox still works. WTF! No clue what I did wrong. Flashed like 20 Liteons in the past month and no problem. This is the second box in a row I could not flash. Oh well

it was a 74xx series. My pc was a dell from 1998. Power supplies on those go out all the time. Hopefully it's just a matter of putting in a new one. I do have a brand new dell with no harddrive I picked up along the way. At this point I think It would be cheaper to just get a harddrive and get that one running. The only thing is I have everybody's OFW's on that one.

Yeah that's a good idea. I know what you are talking about. I seen one before. The comical thing about this is, If you could imagine the guy who is sitting there watching me play with his xbox and poof! I wonder what was going through his mind?
