0079fk > 0078fk Swap Fails Despite Key Transplant
« on: November 05, 2007, 03:30:00 PM »

My 0079FK was bricked when the Xbox turned off during flashing. I did get the key from the original firmware though so I picked up a 0078FK drive, extracted the firmware from it, replaced the key with my key off the 0079FK, and when I boot up the console I get a black screen and section 4 flashes red indicating a hardware failure. I tried flashing iXtreme and the stock firmware, both with the key from my original 0079FK drive, and it does the same thing on both. Is there another step needed besides replacing the key to upgrade your DVD drive?

EDIT: The error code by the way is 1002
