boochip next time you quote a comment make sure you give a helpful answer. Don't say they already answer it. I don't know if you are stupid or what but next time let frosty or someone else answer. Anyways I have a ps/2 and again nothing. It says Reading finished! Datasum:158F and that's it. I try everything, pressing every key on my keyboard turning the xbox 360 drive on and off and ejecting the drive and nothing. WTF frosty come up with something. And boochip make sure you don't answer. I can even make a video and see what's going bad.

Sorry Dark-Knight but i thought my answer was helpful, at least you ruled out the usb/ps2 problem.
You might want to try and press the buttons it tells you to on screen instead of "I try everything, pressing every key on my keyboard" and as for me being stupid well my xbox's working the way i want and your isn't

calling people stupid isn't going to get you much help.

@ darkcrudus

I had the same problem as you, I even tried PS/2 adaptor and then bought a PS/2 keyboard, it still didn't work. I ended up using Jungle Flasher 1.6 to do my Benq drives and it worked perfectly, you just need to make sure you install portIO32 first and make sure you're running it form a 32bit operating system. Hope this helps.

Unbricked my Lite-on using Iprep and Dosflash.

If your Lite-on drive is already flashed, you don't need any special sata cables or other hardware tools to update the firmware.

Anyway, thnx Frosty for the great job he's doing for all of us

Don't demand things on a site where you get software for free. It's bad karma...

It's not a keyboard problem (as I originally thought) it is a bug in Microsoft's CHOICE.COM application.

This will be fixed in the 'bugfix' version of '360 Modification USB Drive v1.6' which will be released on Monday, June 1st.

Ok, just to confirm to the modding community, I am going to continue development with both 360 Modification Disc and 360 Modification USB Drive as joint-releases in the future.

In fact, a 'bugfix' version of both will be released on June 1st with the following fixes for both:

- Replacing FreeDOS with MS-DOS due to booting issues on some PCs
- Adding 'validation scripting' to confirm that the firmware backup is correct instead of using the [Y/N] confirmation prompt that is causing keyboard lockups on some PCs
- Cleaning up and revising the instructions/steps for the modding process on each drive to make each step as clear and easy as possible to follow
- An 'official' tutorial will be included that will outline each possible step in the modding process in great detail

So in response to those concerned about the future of the 360 Modification Disc, don't worry, I will continue to update and joint-release both the 360 Modification Disc and 360 Modification USB Drive in the future.

Release of the revised 'bugfix' versions of both is slated for June 1st.

Just make sure you are using a VT6421 or NForce3/4 chipset for flashing.

Does that mean that we use any chipset for making backups?

Is there any way to skips steps like go straight to flashing the drive.
I already got to the step of flashing but it froze on me.
If i try to use the disc it asks me to dump firmware from drive and the drive has already been erased and you cannot tell the disc what dir the ixtreme firmware is in.

If anyone could help me out it would be appreciated.

Thanks

As long as you got the backup of the IXTREME.BIN and ORIG.BIN files saved to your HDD it should be easy.

PM me for details on recovering your drive.

I'm having difficulties with one of my drives.

Posted problems here ->
http://forums.xbox-s...p;#entry4489008

Basically I erased bank0 of my dvd's firmware before it froze up on me and now its all screwy. I've got the original firmware and a spoofed copy ready to go, and really this usb utility is the only thing that I can get to recognize the drive properly. Unfortunately, it tries to read it before hand and then it uses the wrong firmware. I want to use a custom firmware and jump right on to the write step. Hope theres a way?

NOTE: Posted here hoping frosty would see and help.

I'm really glad you've decided to continue releasing future versions of the mod disc. I prefer using older PCs to upgrade my 360. I don't feel comfortable using my newer PC to upgrade out of fear that I might damage it. Unfortunately the older PCs can't boot from the usb drive; that's why I need to use the disc version.

The only problem is the previous versions of the 360 mod disc don't seem to boot on my older pc. I've been pulling my hair out all day waiting for the bugfix versions of 360 Modification Disc. Is the latest bugfix version of the 360 mod disc gonna come out on time (i.e. 6/6/2009) and if not how much longer till it's released?

By the way, really great work Frosty!

It should be out later today.

BTW, can you boot the newest v1.6 version? Or does it just affect the older versions?

The 360 Modification Disc that found, the batch files reference different drive letters and calling other batch files that were not including in the iso. What am I missing?

Will the USB tutorial also give directions of how to install stuff onto the USB to get it to be bootable?

You can't extract the disc version to create a USB version without extensive revisions to the scripting.

However, there is already a USB version available called '360 Modification USB Drive v1.6' which you can find on XBINS, and it has everything you need for a USB bootable version of my disc.
