Im looking for some help on what commands within DOS I should be using when backing-up and flashing my firmware.

With this flash program you only need the one comand promt.
FLASH22S.BAT G 1234
G: Being the example drive letter assigned.
This firmware will NOT flash unless a successful backup has been created.
PS. This program is to be used in windows within a DOS window.

The previous bats have a bug with errorlevel variable (my mistake, not garyOPA).

the least you could do to take ownership for your mistake is to release the revised package with a new filename/version.

Why new version? the bug have nothing to do with killing your drive (as other releases from other people have done). It was fixed for prevention and to have the feeling I am doing it on the better way.
Where were you hidden pair of detractors he he ... go code your own tools instead of bitching the other's work. Anywayl, I will not sleep tonight for your comment he he.
Mi new version of whatever would contain:
if %systemuser% in("gehx","tom_mandory") then fu%k_their_drives
so beware, dont use it
QUOTE(Ravo5002 @ Oct 9 2006, 11:16 PM)
If they are related to allow you to play backups, yes can be taken as illegal.

Gehx is 100% correct it is another reason not to use any of Maximus releases.
garyOPA knows 100% what he is doing and it is well worth waiting for his stealth release.

WTF does that mean and tom_mandory is also correct.
RENAME the file so people dont possibly use the bad version.

"just copy this bats over the existing ones into your drive" does not sound to you as a valid fix, do you want a new 5MB package?
Yes, you can teachme grammar since english is not my mother language, but would be funny that you want to teachme coding he he. (It is funny to see how when the people does not have any solid point goes to the "spelling issues" argument)

Umm yeah buddy how bout you ride your intertube back to the sh!thole you came from I will even push you out to sea Dill hole.
and I have fixed and modded more xbox 1 and 360 systems than your gay A@s homeland has ever even dreamed of owning.
So go on back and play it on your 13" black and white TV and you can even record it to your Betamax VCR.

This is why I always wait at least a week when a new version of something comes out from the scene. There's bound to be that tiny little bug somebody missed that screws over somebody.
But really, this should have a different version number. Somebody out there is going to brick their drive still.

Oh what a really strong point you have... how much xboxes, that would make you more smart right? it is so easy to be a copy-paste moron and use other's releases for living, good for you !!!
Oh and when you get more brain than tongue let us know !!!
As stated on the very first readme... tested MANY times on 46/47/59/59B without failures. 99.99% users have those TESTED versions. Sorry for not testing on the rest of them but I dont have those drives.
This discussion sucks, the point was clarified on the above posts. So see you

Wow, you retards need to shut the hell up. Seriously, you are the reason why Xbox-Scene has become a laughingstock by people at XboxHacker. Sometimes I don't agree with their elitism, but I REALLY don't agree with your dumbass comments. It's ok to have an opinion, but you're straight-up flaming Maximus for giving you a better release. Nobody forced you to use the new version. Did you pay for the program? No. Was there any warranty? No. Did he fix the problem quickly, and implicitly state that was his overlooking and not GaryOPA's? Yes. He was honest with his mistake, but certainly even he couldn't have seen this as he did in fact test the firmware and it worked just fine. Caster420 and others have used this firmware just fine. Hell, if he wouldn't have released the batch files, you probably wouldn't even know about the "bug." But yeah, he's the bigger man, honing up and making sure you guys are in good hands. Why are you bashing one of the best contributors to the scene instead of praising him? You don't feel "safe" using the program that's your own problem, simply don't use it. I'm sure Maximus could really care less. Write your own damn program if you're so perfect.
Maximus, please remember that these idiots are just a sliver of the scene, and do not represent the dedicated members of the Xbox-Scene. Grateful people that are happy and thankful to have people like you helping us. You've done some great stuff and I can't wait to see what the future brings.

I take it I can just use the revised bat version stright off?, I think the download was 4.5mb. Do I need the first release or does it have all the programs utilities as in the first release, but with the revised bats.
How can I simply tell if I have the revised bats,,,,, is their a quick and easy way, only I dont want to flash my drive not having the nrequired files.
The revised bats file is for people who had originally downloaded the 'Maximus-Garyopa_XTRM-HITACHI_v2_2_Stealth'. These changes to the batch files had been updated to the original package. Thus if u download the package now, you don't need the revised bats.
To know if u have the latest version, just open any of the flash batch file say flash22s.bat. Search for 'errorlevel 0'. If you can find any of those, the batch file belongs to the old version and u need to replace with the revised bats file ...

options. You don't have to use the programs. You know damn well that there are inherant risks to using anything of this nature. The man discovered the flaw, admitted to the flaw, and fixed it. What the hell else do your want?!!Do you think Garyopa and the others never make mistakes? It happens. its part of the coding process. You want better, code it yourself, but don't flame and insult a person who is doing you a favor. Without PAY!!!
I'd like to take this time to thank all the coders on the scene for their hard work
P.S

thanks I have the errorlevel 1 by the looks of it, I opened up flash22s.bat using rightclick and edit, it opened the program in notepad and all the errorlevels were set at 1.
Thanks for helping me out, I'm such a noob, but learning slowly.
Another question if I may, I noticed that there is two different versions of the 2.2 flash one designed for backups in mind and the other not, is there any drawbacks to the first one, ie slower loading times, compared to the other one?

I have a Hitachi 59b drive and it keeps failing when I attempt the GETSS command. Flashed successfully with flash22s in windows using the connectivity kit. I don't have any backups to test with since this is my first attempt at backing up my originals. I get is error (SENSE KEY=00/ASC=00/ASCQ=00). I've tried several different originals, and the drive and disc are being detected fine by Windows XP.
