Benq Vad6038 Flash Help
« on: May 02, 2008, 06:40:00 AM »

I have a Philips Benq (november 2007) drive to flash and have found 2 tutorials on how to do it. The only problem is they are both different.
one method says you have to cut and solder a switch to the rom pcb     http://dwl.xbox-scene.com/tutorial/vad6038_tutorial.pdf

the other says you dont have to cut and solder anything. I have downloaded loads of tools and tutorials but cant make head nor tail of it.

I have experience flashing hitachi firmware including 78's and also the samsung roms. I have to boot up using ntfs4dos as my motherboard does not support usb flash booting.

can anyone shed some light on which is the best route to take for this benQ drive.
