It took me 7 hours but i finally managed to fix my Benq flashing problem. I was using a new Falcon Xbox pro and had installed the VIA VT6421A PCI SATA card.
Anyway I tried to flash the drive and it always hung on 0xD1 and 0x51 and never started to read the banks. After trying a lot of different things the way mine finally worked was by
1- Putting the Sata cable into the internal sata card connection which is on the card but inside the PC.
2 - Disabling, via bios, every other ide/pata/Sata internal connection I had on the PC
3 - When the floppy disk booted up as soon as the dos prompt came up I then turned on my xbox.
4 - typed in the command, slected Y to keep trying, then turned off the xbox and turned it back on and Walah!
5 - after getting the firmware and then creating thr new one I tried to overwrite it and had about 10000 read errors. I ended up erasing the firmware and then rewriting it and had no problems.
hopefully this may help someone else and save them 7 hours of frustration
Cheers
