Hello,
Yes, the drive is currently on 1.91 and still works fine in the console since I did nothing at the moment.
I also tried JF, with the same result, no vendor mode, and JF is not stable under my new Win7 x64 setup, BTW if I disable the VIA driver, JF does not see the card, and if I enable it, it is unstable and freezes.
I also had good and easy success with dosflash 2.0 and my Benq drive.
Thanks.
I had a similar problem updating my liteon drive thought i'd bricked it.
I usually use dos to erase/flash the liteon drive, but my computer wouldnt recognise the drive on my sata cable.
To fix the problem i connected an old hitachi drive to the sata cable 09E0 and switched on with CK3, booted up iprep with hitachi switched on from the startup. This will recognise now that your hitachi drive is connected. Switch off hitachi drive using CK3 disconnect sata cable and ck3, plug in liteon, switch liteon on and do l-o-eras commands as normal.
If your having a similar problem to me which sounds about the same, then this should work.
Mine messed up because i tried to flash to the drive twice but only done l-o-eras for the first flash, so got stuck inbetween normal mode and vendor mode i think, then pc wouldnt recognise that the drive was there coz firmware was locked out.
hope this helps.
