Hi, i have been reading and reading and i finnaly think i figured out why i cant read from my dvd drive...is it cuz it is a ms28? i have been trying been for days on different pc's...i make the floppy with all the needed files) and it boots fine and detects my drive (i think) but after i type MTKflash r /m orig.bin..it just gives me some port: 8c00 Master/Slave: b0 or A0 and flashes...... is there a way to get it to read without having to solder to it.. if not could some1 direct me to a good tut with pics, or a specific one...cuz the ones i have found have dead links int eh pics and i cant do it cuz most f the tut says stuff like "refer to pic" ect.. anyways, if i dont have to solder that woudl be great..my motherboard is an Asus P5LD2 Delux..any help would be awesome, thanks!!

#1 get a via card
#2 read textbook guide : http://www.360mods.net/Downloads/details/id=61.html
#3 dont use a floppy unless you 100% have to
#4 follow textbooks guide and use bad flash method (VIA chipset only!)

thanks for your reply, i meant to edit and appologize for being an idiot and not reading down a little, i am just finishing up making a floppy for my chipset with Xtreme bootmaker, hope it works, thaks for your reply and my appologies once again.

i say this once again, with your chipset (intel 945) you cant bad flash method, so ignore that, also you can get some very nasty side effects using a floppy, data can corrupt easy and if it does that while flashing/reading, well, its not good...i advise you to get the via chipset sata card which is mensioned so much on this website

Firstly to KarlsoB - your posts sound like you are reading my mind. Welcome to the world that is convincing people that they need to read :-)

thalungz - the VIA 6421A or VIA 6421L SATA chipset on a PCI card is what you are after. As to what make/brand that is, think of it as analogous to wanting a specific AMD chip, and asking what motherboard to get... There are many places you can get the card you need. Some of which are listed in the guide KarlosB directed you to. Beyond that you are going to have tyo give more details on where you live - but if you do so, be ready for flaming if we simply do what you should do, and look up the guide to see where they are.

BTW: thanks for the help guys!

I am not trying to come off rude but man there are so many threads that can answer your questions. I have a very low post count but only because 98% of questions anyone has asked at least 10 others have asked. There are pinned topics, FAQs, links, and etc... that you should definately read before asking anymore questions. If you do not want to search and read I suggest you do not mod your box.
