Best tool out there. It places all the applications you would normally use inside a nice GUI to prevent noobs from bricking their box. The application does not freeze, windows does and thats a hardware issue.

I use it for every drive (except new liteon of course). Only ever have problems with a few drives.
Liteon freezing windows (nforce 4 chipset only seems to be 1 out of 5 drives that freeze) or a samsung M28 refusing to unlock.
When Im having trouble with those two drives I just boot off my usb stick and use dosflash 1.7.

So bascilly all you ever need software side are.

Windows XP
PortIO
Jungle flasher
Ixtream 1.6 and 1.51 for hatachi drives.

Then

Bootable usb stick
Dos Flash 1.7

And you can do every drive.

uninstall you ide-drivers in the software management in windows. then everything is workin perfectly with nforce.
BTT:
flashin sammy,benq,liteon,for hitachi i am just usin it to create new firmware. I am more of a dosflash-fan,because much faster readin/flashin progress on benq and sammy.

I prefer using DOS because I dont need a 32-bit OS to do it that way.

BUT i used it to mod a hitachi and it was VERY painless and easy. And i just used it to mod a liteon.

I use it for all drives.

With the so called "modder mode" everything goes automaticly, and that's just easy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Too bad there's no Portio64 since I need a dualboot setup, Hitachi's can be flashed fine on X64 btw, you just use the WINAPI mode.

thats not proper dos ,thats a dos window running through windows,flashix by c4eva for hitachi ,there is no true way to mod hitachi with dos as it is a live drive.
