I think you should hex edit mtkflash specificly for your chipset.

ok since this is a bump.. i'll recap

I've tried hex editing for nforce4, I've tried unplugging all components
I've tried the Boot Maker
I've tried several different mtkflash commands
mtkflash r orig.bin
mtkflash r /m orig.bin
mtkflash r /m /sata orig.bin

The light on the drive blinks and it lists my drive, it is still just giving me the:
port 9f0, Master/Slave a0
then I hit esc and it says 00 should be 70 or something
the port changes depending on where I have the drive plugged in I believe

My board is the Abit A8n 32x SLI
My DVD-ROM is the TS H943 m25

have you definately tried using X360SAM0.5? those files combined with the xtreme boot maker mtkflash files and your xtreme firmware on a formatted usb should work. just type "samread 1234567 12345" and it should dump your firmware to the usb drive.

just make sure to unplug all of your other drives first.

seriously.. maybe i don't have the nforce4 chipset? no that's not true I do.. but I just wonder which one is controlling the sata and I can't just look at the north/southbridge because there is a heatsink on both

I feel your pain. I'm using the USB method too and I'm stuck with my MS25 drive.
Ran the Xtreme Bootmaker and using the 42b.bin

Read through the tutorial by Textbook and followed it to the letter.
When I type in the command: samread 1234567 12345
It comes up with the following:

Drives Scanned
1. XTREME PRI MASTER
2. XTREME PRI SLAVE

I select 1 and then it says: Port e800, Master/Slave: a0

And it hangs there forever.

I'm using the Asus A8N-VM CSM that has the NVIDIA GeForce 6150 + nForce 430.

Any help is appreciated since it might help us both.
